1001 Albums Summary

Has its moments but little bit cringy

Bit too rhythm and blues for me but has its bangers

Arguably the best CAN album, drumming is wild absolute classic

Better than I expected but second half especially pretty shite. Love island can get in the bin.

Bass playing and sub bits are nice, ruined by the condmosh scatting from the dreadlocked kilt wearing weirdo.

Made it a few minutes into the opener, basically yacht rock for your dad when he’s in a dinghy on holiday.

He can’t sing for shit and the guitar and harmonica makes my ears bleed but the songs r gr8.

Better than I thought but that’s a low bar.

Enjoyed it, would have given it 3.5 if I could.

Pleasant listen, bit smooth FM

2

First track is over played garb but rest had its moments.

Didn’t listen, grow up album generator.

Almost rated five but I’m setting a very high bar for 5s, blew my head off this can’t believe it was made in the 70s Last track is increddy, ambient before eno.

A lot better than I remember it would give it 4.5 than I could, Drink Dat the only cringy downside.

Classic init

Pleasant enough

Solid 3.5 some dump tracks but the good is pretty darn good

Would have given 3.5, smackhead drone ruined the vibe tho

Had its ups had its downs

Would have given it 3.5 as the good songs were really great, some tosh thou

Trippy shit

Productions a 4, vocals a 2 if I’m being generous. Let’s call it a 3.

Felt a bit long but was some honking good sax

4.5 really, only not giving 5 cos don’t won’t to feel cond

Me first 5/5, no filler.

Bars aren’t bad but production was tacky af

Beige and not in a good way like frozen foods

Nearly a 5, RIP Chester lid

Good background funk

Decent punk album init

Opening track good, gets a little porno groove after tho

Ballad of a thin man is me fave Dylan song and rest of the album is nice, solid 4

It’s alright but don’t like the western influence, don’t get why oli hates it quite so much though.

Pretty dull, can’t remember anything about it now

Too long, singing is annoying, honks trying to be funky

Some filler but some of CANs best as well

Bang average at best

Listened to it in 3 attempts so can’t really remember but think it was alright

Pretty dull

Pretty dated but still feels good like

Decent this

Shoegazy goodness, going to listen to this again when I’ve finished my damn backlog

No filler from the dinosaurs here

Some duds but some absolute bangers

Fairly high standard artic monkeys esque indie rock

Hard panning freaked me out but solid album

Alright

Never quite got the Joni hype even if blue is a classic, only thought the boho dance was any good rest was pretty shit.

Pretty forgettable

Not usually a metal fan but enjoyed this more than I thought

Some top quality crazy horse this

Shoegazy banger

Whacky indie weirdness

If you like the same organ riff over and over again with a side of tacky cover song then this album is for you!

Solid album, congratulations is a pretty perfect album closer (ignoring the deluxe addition CRAP added on after it).

Honkey funk

Good songs are great but he still can’t sing for shit

Sort of thing I can imagine being pretty ground breaking at the time but it’s aged like milk.

Could have been half the length but the high points are high (especially stumbeline).

Again pretty fucking long, good points are bloodly great though.

Would have give it 4.5 but a few duds, nearly a masterpiece

All sounds the same but pleasant

Forgettable 80s tunes

Interesting in places

One of the first albums I bummed as a kid, noncey cover though

Wall to wall bangers, he would bum you into next week tho

Rip George

Inoffensive pop reggae bangers

4.5, lost half a star for Dre loving battering women

Dull as dishwater!

Unexpectedly loved this 4.6

Standard Bjork, the great bits are phenomenal but then somehow loses me.

Nearly gave this a 4 before the scat singing in the last track, inoffensive background jazz. Her voice was pretty painful on headphones too.

Got two good songs rest pretty dull

Turning into a flaming lips stan

First song is good, rest is just bono being bono (fuck off bono)

Alright pop prog

Can see why it’s a classic but did get bored at points

Worst thing I’ve heard in ages, why does she basically exclusively sing about her mum.

Classic init

Really hate this, even worse now I’ve realised it’s not counting crows

Feel like I’m being generous with 3, some obvious bangers but some hideous trash too

4.5 didn’t expect to love this so much

Feel like this needs more listens to me, volume was all over the place on car speakers

Almost gave it a 4 because of “dieing of thirst”

Boring dad rock

People are vampires ruins it

Liked this well more than I thought I would, nearly a 5

Really expect us to find out in the next decade this man is a mega paedo, his lyrics are mostly limited to singing about places or using racial slurs.

Wanted to like but and the well known songs are great but the rest just seemed wishy washy, horn arrangements and sound was lovely tho

Not for me

Was alright

Great sad guitar music, proto elliot smith

Title track a banger, rest sounds the same

Pleasantry surprised by this, psych folk electronic weirdness

5 init

Not entirely unpleasant

Not what I expected from the nonces, adverts a bit annoying some bangers tho

Solid quirky American indie

Mozza is a big racist but this album is good

Literally can remember none of this and I listened yesterday, actually remember the singers voice being annoying let’s call it a 2

Enjoyed the album tracks more than I thought I would, bohemian rhapsody annoying as ever though

My namesake absolutely smash it here

Enjoyed it more than I thought but on the whole still pretty forgettable

Nearly a 5 but monologue fest at the end ruined it

Boring

God this was bad, like eagles level bad. Don’t give me anything like this again or I’m out.

All over the place sonically, get some cohesion you tantric weirdo

Pretty solid all in all, some whacky panning going on.

Basically the lord of the rings of music, overhyped and mystical and people who like it need to wash. Lost another star for jimmy page being a nonce.

Reluctant 3, the good stuff is really great the bad is fucking shit

Thought I would hate this, great production, especially enjoyed the 909 & 303 workout on “Don’t stop the rock”

Some incredible production but the odd song not for me

Really close to being a 5 but respect is pants

Dull

Title track bangs, sod the rest of it

Punk by numbers for me

Can’t really remember what this sounded like now, let’s call it a 4

Few filler tracks but “Blue” and “Taste of You” are classics

Years ahead of it’s time

My second favourite MBV album

Dated

Good angsty shoe gaze

Worse than expected, what’s with the musical theatre bits. Hope to never hear any of his music again.

Good shit, proto LCD. His vocal gets a bit annoying at time for me tho.

Trippy Coldplay init, 5 tho

Dunno how this won a mercury, background boredom for left wing dads.

Absolute gem from someone I've never heard of, nice one 1001.

Classic

Sounds like it would get played in a rubbish theme biker bar

Far too long, some weird bits.

Whacky kraut pop, very NTS daytime show

Wanted to like this more than I did, probs just under a 4 in reality

Bit all over the place and don’t get half being live but great album init

Tight live album, all sounds the same though

Sonically all over the place but the good tracks are great, pretty of an era.

One of the worst lazy eye albums but still a 5

Instrumentals are nice but can’t hack most of the vocal tunes

Standard Joni, her voice grates on me sometimes tho

Odd comedy concept album

Wanted to like this more then I did but guess I’m never that into post punk

One thing I’ve found out through this stupid game is I quite like Neil Young, let’s call it a 4.

Solid slaphead action

Average

Thought this would be better, skits are annoying and pretty dated

Nonce

Basically flawless

Nepobabies but not deducting anything for it

Rapist so deducted a star

Nearly a perfect album

Bit cinematic but good

Boring coffee table electronica

Average wedding music

Boring songs for dads with bowl cuts

Great, need to watch the film

Happy Elliot smith, still great tho

Some bangers but some dull

Bummed off this, pretty self indulgent at points but in a good way

Bit scarred by this years girl but all in all good

Mostly good, some obnoxious solos tho

Conflicted as hell by this and feel like I need to listen again to really form an opinion but I cba and am behind other albums so let’s say 4

Porn groove. Had one good song though

Some bangers here

One of my favourite hip hop albums of all time, easy 5

Forgot to rate this for ages so don’t remember much other than quite liking it. Let’s call it a 4

Fucking awful, how is this released on blue note. Sounds like a CD you would buy in Starbucks

Never got Bowie, probably never will get Bowie.

Least favourite Dylan so far, ear bleeding.

Aged dead well, great prod

Pretty good

First track was alright, downhill from there

Not cohesive for obvious reasons but gozzy being gozzy

Sort of thing I expected to like but pretty meh

Incredible

Aged pretty well

Didn’t like quite a lot of this, don’t get the hype.

Pleasant listen, title track was memorable especially

Enjoyable album this, better than the Beatles

Garbage by name

Will go 5, maybe the standard for a concept album

Second half is best find the blues samples pretty naff, all dated

Pretty shit apart from 1 song

Classic init

Good soul init

Pleasant background 6 music fodder

Enjoyed this more than I though but pretty samey after a while

Some nice tracks but she’s a murderer

Great avant pop sorta shit

Enjoyed this more than I thought, few duds

Boring and samey to me

Didn’t seen as groundbreaking as people make out

Cosmic dad album

Some good songs but still not for me

Cheesy but still a classic

Nice pop reggae init

Forgettable rumba

Scarred by the original version of in the jungle by it playing repeatedly in a shit Netflix doc

Pretty forgettable

Second disc is well better

Good this init

Inoffensive grunge

Listened to this while doing the washing up I think, passed the time

Better than expected but still poo fighters

Solid live jazz

Loads of reverb, what’s not to like

Enjoyed this more than I care to admit, still a 3

Heinous live crap

Easy 5

One or two duds but can see why it’s rated

Remember this being alright

Solid listen this

Overrated af

Heinous

Pretty honky but good in places

Just a bit much this really

Enjoyable background

Sad racist and jangly guitars

Solid sad Leonard

The nonceing he did was very 'Bad' in my opinion, loses a point for that

Can't really remember because this was weeks ago, lets say 4

Don't get joy division or most post punk, probably never will

Maybe their best

Production great, rest of it crass

Nazi mole face man

Bowie album I've enjoyed the most so far

Actually enjoyed this more that songs in the key of life

Almost flawless tbf.

Little bit of filler but 'Love Is A Losing Game' is pretty good init.

Remember not being too mad on this, going to 3 the shit out of it

Don't remember what I thought of this but usually like Steely Dan, let's call it a 4

Proto electroclash, french nonsense. Bit cheesy at places but know what you're getting

Title track especially great, can see the hype around this though.

Pretty fucking dull.

Call me a cond but this was thoroughly enjoyable.

Liked it more than I thought, get less planes though Taylor.

Minus 1 for nonce

Good this, listened too long ago to be more insightful

Samey as hell but enjoyable

Good sunny day soul

Easy 5 basic af though

Aged like milk

Good album, loses a star for being dead racist 3

Absolute classic

Sludgy metal goodness, N.I.N probs has my favourite bass solo on the intro too

Sounded samey, listened on shuffle by accident and cba going back in on it.

Odd album

Thought I was gonna get chufties over this but didn't maybe was in a bad mood, giving it 4 since he's the best member of take that

Dull shit for mums

Angsty 5 star init

Long as hell but one of the best albums in the genre.

Enjoyable background alt

Conflicting, some of this is hideous but some is aite

Sounds like Randy Newman

Pretty pants

Possibly my favourite Bowie so far, wouldn't listen again though.

Great porn groove

Production good but lyrics a bit naff

Fuck knows, felt dead long and dead partridge.

'The Genius of' more like 'The Averageness of'. Not bad for a bog-eyed man though I guess.

Badly made music

Good example of something I never would have listened to without this, maybe this isn’t a futile task after all

Loses a point for not being as good as blonde or endless
