Hybrid Theory
Linkin Park
A staple of the nu metal genre, I have heard of it, but never listened to it besides the radio hits, was an interesting listen, that although it feels like 2000’s music, that doesn’t make it a knock on it, if anything it’s stood the test of time.

Live!
Fela Kuti
Phenomenal Drumming by Ginger Baker, and I can’t imagine how this helped expand his drumming for future projects, it’s a good introduction to African rooted music, and the last track on the album was by far the best. (16 min Drum Duet)

Tres Hombres
ZZ Top
I can understand the appeal, and some songs were good, but never been a fan of ZZ Top, so this was a personal preference rather than objective.

The Number Of The Beast
Iron Maiden
A legendary album in the history of metal, and a benchmark for a new era. Arguably Maiden's best album and it has one of my top 5 songs on it being its closer "Hallowed Be Thy Name." I am heavily biased for this opinion, but it maintains as a 5/5 album that anyone who listens to metal should listen to.

I love this album, very biased, the only knock I have on it are the shorter songs (interludes?) are a bit tough to listen to, but still a favorite that gets played frequently.

Bookends
Simon & Garfunkel
I haven't listened to much Simon & Garfunkel besides the radio hits. This was a pleasant album and listening experience and I was impressed with how good the imagery was on the album, and how smooth the songs were when telling stories, instead of rhyming.

As many others have said in the reviews, due to the cultural and language barrier, I feel my ability to appreciate this is lessened, I get the idea, and appeal, but can’t fully get with it.

Countdown To Ecstasy
Steely Dan
Very biased, but love Steely Dan, and while I don’t think this album scratches their top 3, it could be a top 3 album for any other band that would’ve made it (wouldn’t be the same though)

I'd like to think if I had heard this album in the time period it was in, maybe I could see it's influence and gravity a bit more, but it's just so sluggish at times, and at others it's beautiful.

Illmatic
Nas
(Incredibly biased opinion) There's often a question posed in regards to music, across all genres, that is "If you got rid of the entire genre, but had one album, what could rebuild it?" Just like in the wikipedia, I firmly believe this is one of, if not THE album that could do it. Truly one of the greatest rap albums of all time, and my personal all time favorite hip-hop album, and sometimes outright favorite. Nas managed to put out his magnum opus on his debut at a young age, and although he's never really quite hit that high again, he's still putting out albums well into his 50's. This would be one of the first albums I'd recommend anyone wanting to survey into the hip-hop genre. NY State of Mind is also IMO the best hip-hop song ever made.

If I Should Fall From Grace With God
The Pogues
This is the second Pogues album I have gotten, and both time's it's been a unique case of good idea, good execution, but just not for me. There are 1 star albums I have rated that I got through easier than this. I still respect the musicianship though, and on the right day, it would probably be a fun listen.

I enjoy a lot of Steely Dan, so I was sure I'd enjoy this one, but was surprised to find I didn't as much I wanted to. It's hard to give a 3 vs a 4, because my knock on it is "The Steely Dan sounds like Steely Dan" which is obvious in a solo career, but was hoping for more. It is very reminiscent of Gaucho (release 2 years earlier) and besides I.G.Y and New Frontier sounding semi different I wouldn't be able to tell this was a solo project.

This is my personal all-time favorite album, and normally I would think that's a bias, but I truly think this deserves a 5, regardless of where I hold it. Normally I don't look at reviews, so I can form my own opinion without being swayed. I had an outline of what I was going to write regarding the milestones this album contributed to, and everything in between, but one of the top reviews said almost everything i had to say and more. I would reccomend reading that, because I wholeheartedly agree. (The review starting with 2/14/2022)

This album I think is by far the hardest I’ve had to rate so far a little over 500 albums in. I don’t usually look at reviews until I’ve made mine, but this one helped me put thoughts I had into words.
Despite only being 4 years ago, this feels like a timepiece in the fact that it would’ve been much more powerful during the time it was made for. That being said, I really flip-flopped throughout this album, because for as much good instrumentation and creativity, there is just as much repetitiveness and not-so-blunt delivery. There have been albums on this list, whether it be Beyoncé, Fela Kuti, Grandmaster Flash or even my last album the day before this MIA, and also artists that I haven’t gotten/aren’t on the list, range in decent to great delivery of their messages, and mantain their musical proficiency.
I agree with the sentiment that Wildfire is the best song out of this album, and would be most listenable, removed from the context of the album.
I don’t have a problem with the overall idea of the album, even though at times it feels lazy in the way it’s put to the listener, I just feel there are a lot better ways to convey Black Excellence/empowerment , especially with how rich the history of music is, and how much of it is owed to African/African-American artists. A great example in modern times is GREY AREA- Little Simz, another album on this list released 1 year earlier, (and one of my biggest regrets of giving a lower rating than it deserves.)

There aren't many albums on this list that I have personal negative bias towards, but this is one. I've had 1 star albums that were easier to get through than this. I enjoy the instrumental sound they have, but man this is one of the top examples of vocals absolutely killing a band for me.

Hounds Of Love
Kate Bush
As a mid 20's person, my instinct on seeing this, was of course, thinking about how Running Up That Hill absolutely blew back up in 2022, to the point where you couldn't be on any sort of social media without hearing the song within 10 minutes. (Not that it's a bad thing, just making a point) This didn't give me a negative or positive bias going in, as I don't know much about her besides that, just I knew to expect a heavy hitter. I was pleasantly surprised as a fan of prog rock, and as someone who sometimes needs 2nd listens to certain pop (Heaven or Las Vegas comes to mind) to truly understand it, how well both these elements shined, on the first listen. The aforementioned track deserves it's flowers as the most infamous song, because it stands out from the rest. That doesn't mean the rest of the album disappoints. Kate seems to have been experimenting (especially in the backhalf) in ways that feels 20+ years ahead of her time. Things you see modern artists try to do with their albums. Through 3 of her albums generated, she is the one of the original pop blueprints for maximizing sound to instantly punch through and grant you a vision beyond the lush, purple cover, on what the album is supposed to sound and feel like.
I can understand this album not hitting for others, since I've had a few albums similar to this (including one her other albums) that I just couldn't get right away, but you can't deny the artistic talent, and influence to come from it afterwards.

I'm learning that I'm not the biggest fan of Grime and British rap, which is unfortunate, cause I can see the talent there, and enjoy the sound, it just hasn't clicked for me expect for Little SIMZ, and even then, I gave it a 2 (regretfully) and only came around to it after the 2nd or 3rd listen. I could see the same happening with this album, but it feels repetitive in the blueprint for the songs.

Spy Vs. Spy: The Music Of Ornette Coleman
John Zorn
I 100% understand why this is a bottom 10 album (10 at the time of writing) on this list. Reviews like "what the actual fuck" and "Sounds like drums beating saxophones" are 100% accurate, and made me laugh. Funnily enough, I, going in blind, decided to listen to this album (of all the ones to pick) while trying to lay down to start to go to sleep. I will say though, maybe it caught me on a good day, and especially after 10-15 straight albums of middling of the pack psychedelic albums, one off 2000's pop albums (Looking at you Ceelo) or British wannabes from different eras, trying to emulate Oasis, Blur, The Beatles, or even Radiohead. (Not to say there aren't great versions of these things listed) but this was incredibly refreshing to hear, even if sonically, it wasn't nearly as accessible. This is by far my biggest positive stray from the pack in terms of rating, and after all, is that not what this project is for?

I love this project, but I sometimes feel the perception you get of some artists are victim to the order you get their albums in.
Example: I got 6 of Bob Dylan’s 7 albums on this list in my first 100 Albums, Time out of Mind and Royal Albert Hall were the first (not the best introductory to him) and 700 albums later I haven’t pulled Highway 61 Revisited. Which is by far his most acclaimed.)
I bring this up in the case of MBV, as I’ve gotten them almost back to back, but neither of them being Loveless, which holds great weight to a lot of people. Both their debut and their long awaited follow-up to the aforementioned Loveless, I just can’t fully grasp. It’s a paradox of enjoying each sound individually, but with it all together, maybe I don’t? I’m not sure. I wonder if I would’ve enjoyed it more had I gotten Loveless first?
Objectively this is a good album, but it lacked something for me. I’m really hoping this can be one of those album’s like previous ones to where, down the line I can relisten with fresh ears and enjoy this album more.

I've always been a Songs in the Key of Life guy (so much so, that it's going to be in contention for my favorite when all is said and done.) But I saved the rest for this project, knowing they were coming. Talking Book was a great album, but good in Stevie standards, FFF was also great, but this one by far takes the cake. Legit one of the best albums I've ever heard. Crisp production, captivating bass and backing tracks, and great lyricism as always. Easiest 5 in a while.

Lorde
As someone who’s grown up in this 2000’s/2010’s pop era, I find some of the really bad albums on this list easier to listen to than the pop that’s oversatured my listening tastes for virtually my entire life. This is objectively good, and Lorde has a great voice, but something about this modern style just makes me impatient very quickly due to how much I wanna branch out from this.
Reading the top review is funny though, considering I’m a millennial who has King Crimson as one of their favorite artists of all time. So maybe they were onto something there.

There's a select dozen of albums, that I go into not having heard of them at ALL, and it blows me out the water. This was one of them. A fun album, that I truly wasn't sure I had grasped, so I waited and listened to it 1 more time, to confirm before giving it a rating.

Brian Wilson
Getting this album the day Brian Wilson passed away, and judging by others online, this may have not been a coincidence. If it was forced, there are very few people still alive on this list, maybe Mccartney/Dylan, that would deserve a forced generation, but Brian Wilson is one of them. His impact and pure understanding of the theory of music shines, even 40 years later from the original making of this album. Maybe it's due to him passing, that I took a closer listen and enjoyed it with a heavy heart, despite not being a Beach Boys enthuiast, but you couldn't describe modern music today, without him.

It’s about what you’d expect from 3 hours of Motörhead. Great for ‘81 though, and you can clearly see the influence on Thrash Metal. That being said, I love the Ace of Spades, but hearing it then 2-3 songs eeriely similar isn’t the best. Fun album though.

D.O.A. the Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle
Throbbing Gristle
Objectively, this is a rough listen, and understandable on why it’s the lowest album. I’m going a 2, because there were a few enjoyable songs, and also, there are elements in this album, that I’ve heard influence bands, 10, 20 years on.
