1001 Albums Summary

Rating: +++ It was good, not amazing. I particularly appreciate Pale Blue Eyes (my favourite of the album). Also, the last song was quite interesting in its composition. It makes me want to discover more of the band, which, to be honest, I've heard of but not properly listened to.

Great album! Favourite tracks are Rainy Wish, Wait until tomorrow, Little Wing, Spanish Castle Magic, and Bold as Love. I enjoyed how Hendrix mixed or juxtaposes different sounds on the recording, it's cheeky and makes it interesting. To me this really is a 4.5 rating, but I can't do half ratings here :)

Interesting, some good small moments but overall it does not feel cohesive or maybe it's not just for me. My rating would be 2.5 stars. I didn't dislike it fully but I cannot just leave it play it in the background without being annoyed in some segments.

Classic! Amazing Loving: Back in the U.S.S.R; Dear Prudence, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Blackbird, Julia, Birthday.

Nice, some tracks are enjoyable but I was not mind blown

Some good tunes! 3 stars

Love it... I had heard one song from this band before (their hit "there goes the Fear"). But this album was a great discovery. I loved The Sulphur Man, Their use of atmospheric sounds at the start of the songs makes it a cinematic experience. 3 stars :D

This album demands you are either are in a club dancing away, or cleaning or working out or racing a car.... you gotta move to endure this... made it to the 1st track of the 2nd side of the album... but that's it... is it horrible? No... Just simply not for me... maybe in small bites sizes or one track. If you can survive the 1st track which si 16 minutes long then you might make it half way or til the end...

Love it! Perfect Western & country music. I'd have never listened to this album if it wasn't for this site. Great storytelling and a clear voice. So many bops. I'm not sure how often I'll revisit it, and that's why I'm giving it 4.

Meh. It was not bad, I could enjoy a few songs in isolation. Not amazing. I was not grabbed in general. It might have been very influential in its time or progressive. But I think it now just works for isolated tracks for a '70s soundtrack movie.

Meh... Besides a couple of tracks (Disorder, Day of the Lord) the rest is a bit forgettable. The distortion is great though :D

Fire. I’ve heard a bunch of these songs before, but listening to the whole thing start to finish is such a treat. I usually listen to this kind of music and Radiohead in general, but this album still feels like something I re-discover each time. There are so many standouts it’s hard to choose. “High & Dry,” “Fake Plastic Trees,” and “(Nice Dream)”—that distorted guitar in the middle and then it softens at the end... just ufff. “Just” is funny, almost mocking at first, then it gets angry in the chorus. The vocals build, the guitars explode, it’s just vibessssss. “My Iron Lung” is full of rage in the chorus and it sounds amazing. “Bullet Proof... I Wish I Was” starts off kind of boring but the chorus feels angelic, like you’re being lifted. The guitar progression is beautiful. In “Black Star,” Thom’s falsetto shines, and again the guitars are on point. Even songs I don’t love like “Sulk” still have a vibe and work in the background. And then “Street Spirit (Fade Out)”—so moody and atmospheric, like a movie soundtrack. The guitars are haunting and Thom’s voice fading in and out just hits. It ends with a more hopeful lyric but it still leaves you in a deep place. The lyrics are cool, melancholic, self-loathing, angry, introspective, always digging into the fakeness of everything. There’s nothing I didn’t like honestly. It’s not a happy-go-lucky album, it’s a whole mood. One of my favorites albums of all time.

Didn’t expect to like parts of this. I don’t listen to rap, but some mixes and transitions were surprisingly cool—bits of classical music, weird synths, and random lines that stuck (“poodle chicken noodle”? no idea, but I like it). Some tracks like “Blue Flowers” and “No Awareness” worked for me—the beats kept me in it, even if the lyrics were hard to follow. “I’m Destructive” had this gritty energy I didn’t mind. But a lot of the album leans into graphic sexual stuff that pushed me out. Some tracks felt more standard and didn’t stand out. Not something I’d revisit, but it has a strange mood that holds the whole thing together.

Felt pretty neutral about this one. I suppose it fits into the generic rock category, but nothing really stood out. Everything sounded fine but the same across the board. It didn’t grab me, just floated by. I didn’t look up the lyrics this time, and nothing made me want to. It’s decent background music (harmless, maybe even comforting), but I don’t think I’d come back to it. Might give it another spin in a different mood or setting just to be sure or place more attention to the lyrics, but for now it’s a 2 that leans a little boring. It's not awful it's just uninteresting.

I liked Venom, Therapy, Sherbet Sunset, smooth when it was some good rhymes

A clear sound and vibe to start with. The songs that really grabbed me were Maps, Y Control

Inoffensive music. Smooth voice. Some nice ballads. The World's Strongest Man, Angel of Ashes, Get Behind Me, Perfect for background music on a Sunday afternoon

Meh, it's okay.
