...And Justice For All
Metallica
It's hard to follow up the back to back masterpieces Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets, so of course this doesn't live up to those two. That being said it's still pretty solid, and One is an incredible song - it just drags in parts sometimes. Another one that i was familiar with but never sat down and listened to all the way through

Cheap Trick
I'm not a fan of live albums, and this is no exception. I've heard this recommended plenty of times, but I just couldn't get over the fact that the recording wasn't always great and the crowd just served to distract from the music rather than enhance it. I will admit that by the time I Want You to Want Me came around I was singing along in my car

Since I Left You
The Avalanches
This is another formative album for me. I torrented it and listened to it on my iPod constantly, so the whole thing is burned in my memory. It was just so cool and like nothing I ever heard of - the use of samples to form a coherent piece that moves throughout the entire thing was just so cool, and frankly still is. All these years later it still feels fresh. It introduced me to a whole new world of music, and for that I'm forever grateful.
Also, if you haven't seen the music video for Frontier Psychiatrist, check it out, it's a lot of fun; I tell my daughter that she's "a nut; you're crazy in the coconut" all the time. She's a baby, but I'm sure she'll appreciate it some day

Didn't expect to see a movie score on here, and was kinda dreading it because I've never seen the movie - but it was pretty cool! Yes, of course there are repeating motifs and it's designed to be played in the background, but I've certainly listened to scores before, so it's not a genre I'm averse to. I wonder if there's some Tangerine Dream or Goblin on this list... we'll see what comes up. Also, the spoken word sections added a lot to it

Moby
When I was a kid there was a commercial that played constantly for one of those CD compilations where they play clips from the songs included - remember those? Well, Porcelain was on there and the little clip they played scared me so much as a kid; I was a weenie, but it was just so haunting and ghostly. That's a memory that's burned into my brain.
I really like South Side, though.

Toys In The Attic
Aerosmith
I knew it would eventually come that someone who's personal life makes it difficult to truly enjoy their work - your Kanyes and Eric Claptons. Unfortunately Steven Tyler falls right into that category; if you don't know, he had an underage groupie right around the time of this album whose parents he convinced to allow him to adopt so he could take her on the road and fuck her - it's really gross. A lot of the lyrical content of this album feels extra icky with that knowledge.
That being said, I did my best to listen as objectively as I could, so here's what my review would be with no preconceived notions:
I'm a child of New England, so of course I grew up with Aerosmith. In my "classic rock is the only real music" phase I would have loved this, but my tastes have drifted and it just doesn't do it for me anymore. I still love Sweet Emotion, though.

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got
Sinead O'Connor
I have always appreciated and respected Sinead O'Connor, but only knew Nothing Compares 2 U. The podcast You're Wrong About did a good episode a little bit ago that made me like her even more, and even more angry at how she was treated after her SNL performance, but I didn't look up any of her music. I was pleasantly surprised by how varied this album is! Some pop, some more folky stuff - and her voice is incredible.

Blonde On Blonde
Bob Dylan
This is a good album for #100 since I love Bob Dylan and don't really have anything new to say about him.
My review of the whole project so far: it's pretty clear that white boomers compiled this list - so much classic rock. I like classic rock, but I feel like it's over represented. I haven't gotten a single country album - I realize it's not a "cool" genre, but there's so much good stuff out there; maybe I'll get 900 country albums from here on.
Overall, though, I have been enjoying the project. I have found some artists that I had never heard of and now really love, and I'm excited to keep on with it. Despite the prevalence of rock, I have discovered a new love of jazz and rekindled my love of funk

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below
OutKast
When I was a teenager the local record store sold packs of random used CDs for pretty cheap - I used to love buying them because you'd find all kinds of weird shit in them, and also some all time classics. One of them had just The Love Below and not Speakerboxxx, which ended up being my first foray into Outkast - a group I love dearly.
That's all a roundabout way of saying that, despite my love of all things Outkast, I've for some reason never listened to Speakerboxxx until today. What a mistake; I think I prefer it to The Love Below. I wish they'd get back together, but what an incredible album to leave on (shhh, Idlewild doesn't count)

Under normal circumstances this would probably warrant two stars, but I'll subtract one for the sex crimes

I want him to get the help he so clearly needs, but mental health can't always be used as an excuse... I mean, he was always kinda an asshole... I'm meandering, but Kanye was my first true foray into Hip Hop as a whole; he hit when I was in high school and was a total breath of fresh air in comparison to the stuff that was coming out. I loved his music, he was smooth, confident, funny and had great production. It's a bummer he went the way he did

This is my favorite album of all time - full stop. It's perfect back to front. That bass line that flows into Tip's verse get me hyped every time; the first time I heard that I knew I was in for something special, and my God does the rest of the album deliver. This is Hip-Hop at it's finest
RIP Phife

The album cover has a guy getting his head cut off by a flying guillotine; that's 5 stars by itself.

Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
This album hit close to home. My grandfather loved this era of country music and it would always be playing when we went to his house. He unfortunately passed away a little over a year ago, and my daughter was born exactly a week later. He never got to meet her, but her and I got to dance and listen to his favorite music together. I'm not a spiritual person, but I feel like there will always be a part of him somewhere with her, and we will always keep his memory alive

I respect the Hell out of Frank Zappa and he's clearly talented, but he also gets too clever for his own good. Experimental is all well and good, but often I feel like I'm just being inundated with noise

Billie Jean has a legit shot at being the greatest pop song of all time. Also, Vincent Price's presence is always great. Aside from the core hits, though, the rest of this album has always left me kinda cold.

Beautiful harmonies. I, like so many other people of my generation were inundated with "world" music through things like The Lion King; I never really appreciated it as a kid and had basically written it off (unjustly) because of how omnipresent it was. For all this lists faults, I will always appreciate it for opening me up to rediscovering African music and learning to truly love it. I know I'm barely scratching the surface, but it's exciting to know how much is out there to explore

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan
I've listened to this album a million times, I even have it on vinyl. I know it's cliche to say this, but his music will never not be relevant - I put it on and when it immediately started with "Blowing in the Wind", I cried thinking of Gaza. "Masters of War" being two songs later, too, with "Girl From North Country" in between - a song that I play for my daughter, who is my girl from the north country. Bob Dylan's music simultaneously is of it's time and is transcendent; he captures and puts words to complex emotions in ways that I will never not find something in

I liked this album a lot better when I was a teenager. Someone pointed out to me once that in between each line Matt Bellamy takes a huge breath, and now that's all I can hear when I listen to Muse.

Tom Waits is an artist who I want to love; he's always so much fun when he pops up in a movie, but I just can't get into his music. The whole throwback troubadour thing is cool, but just not for me I guess. Also, that album cover could not have been made in any decade besides the 90's.
