Led Zeppelin III

Led Zeppelin

5/5

Listened to this one before, thought it was great and then never came back to it. So I'm very glad the generator got me to relisten, since this really is a masterpiece. Like most people, my favorite is the Immigrant dong (i'm leaving the typo there).

Remain In Light

Talking Heads

3/5

I liked it. Loved the bass. Might listen to it in the background again.

Fleet Foxes

2/5

Feels more... Folky, choiry or acoustic-y? Not really my thing if I'm being honest. Won't listen again.

Transformer

Lou Reed

5/5

Oooh, Lou Reed. I love that this album came up, cause i feel like I should've listened to it already. Feels like a lovely mix of The Velvet Underground (What a shocker that is!), David Bowie and Iggy Pop. Also reminds me of my mom. Great album, would listen again.

Low

David Bowie

3/5

It's pretty nice, enjoyable enough. A bit too instrumental for my taste. Would need to listen to it again to form a clearer opinion.

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Never heard of Simon and Garfunkel before, and I think they probably are a part of the general musical knowledge, that most should at least have some clue about. I like the album, mostly reminds me of the Beach Boys. The Boxer and So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright stuck out to me, and The Boxer felt like I've heard it somewhere before. I will relisten to it later to get more of a sound grasp on the specific musical elements.

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

4/5

Interesting. There's a lot going on. I like the 21st man schizoid thingy man thing idk. Will come back to it.

Virgin Suicides

Air

5/5

I just love this website, there's something so enthralling about trying music I probably wouldn't've stumbled upon otherwise. That said, I surprised myself by actually really liking this album, or more so the score of a movie I had never even heard about. It's very melodic, dreamy, eerie and pleasant to listen to, can totally imagine studying to it. Also the vibe of the bassline in Highschool Lover just, *mwah*, does it for me. Of course it's a bit disjointed, as it wasn't made to be a studio album. Might add this movie to my endless watchlist. Anyway, I'm tired.

Parklife

Blur

2/5

This album didn't really leave any lasting inpressions on me and I doubt that I'll come back to it.

Shadowland

k.d. lang

1/5

I don't doubt the musical quality of the record. I'm just not the biggest fan of this country lounge blues karaoke folk genre. Sorry.

We Are Family

Sister Sledge

5/5

The moment i saw this, I just heard the familiar WE. ARE. FAH-ME-LEIGH! Glad I wasn't wrong. I enjoyed this record a bunch, it's some really wonderful mood boosting disco. I also discovered the main sample of a remix I heard in a hotel some time ago, so that also made me happy. It's the main beat of Thinking of You for those curious. Will listen again.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

5/5

It totally fit the mood of getting ready for nultá hodina while it's still dark outside. It's a wonderful album, beautiful in its simplicity. Would listen again.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

3/5

I appreciate that I listened to and now know about this album. Although i definitely heard OHHH LORD WON'T YOU BUY MEE A MERCEDES BENZ before. But It's not really something I'd listen to on the regular:).

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

4/5

I liked it. It was nice. My brain needs breathing room to process the amount of music I intake daily, so this album is mostly a pleasant blur of sounds rn.

Floodland

Sisters Of Mercy

1/5

Big dracula vibes. I had no desire to listen to this more than was completely necessary. Again, I don't doubt any artistic qualities the album has, but it's a no from me.

Wild Is The Wind

Nina Simone

3/5

Only listened to half. Wasn't blown away.

Stankonia

OutKast

4/5

A bit of a mixed bag for me personally, but overall it's great.

Opus Dei

Laibach

3/5

I'm sorry, but I really wasn't in the mood for this typa music today. I'll add a rating later. Maybe.

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Your New Favourite Band

The Hives

3/5

It's just about fine. Weird that there's a compilation on here..

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

2/5

It is jazz. It feels very long, longer than it actually is. I appreciate the artistry but won't listen again.

You've Come a Long Way Baby

Fatboy Slim

4/5

Feels like an album I'd come across while digging through the discounted record bin and buying it just for the giggles. Kinda slaps, almost like I've heard it before in terrible tinny quality coming from my mom's Sony Ericsson flip phone as a soundtrack to a gangsta' parkour mobile game. Or something that would play from the bullies' boombox in an anti-bullying campaign. Or something Felix would download very slo-o-o-owly through uloz.to in his Extrem DJ phase. Or what rowdy eight-year-olds would learn their dance routine to in a small town Hip Hop afterschool class. Giving it a very biased 4-star rating, because unlike the past multiple albums, this actually evoked "some" emotional reaction.

Melodrama

Lorde

3/5

Ha! I already listened to this album out of my own will like two weeks ago, when I saw it was on this list. But that doesn't mean I remembered much, sooo... Wait a sec. I didn't really remember much from it even the second time round. It's not really "my" genre. But i do appreciate her.

Let It Be

The Replacements

3/5

Ahh another random punk rock album

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Yes! I love his music, very happy to see it here.

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

5/5

Funnily enough, I also already listened to this album a few days ago. Happy to relisten. It's really trippy, and I love that, What Does Your Soul Look Like Pt. 4 immediately struck me, it hits just right. Wouldn't say it's a really consistent and/or coherent experience listening back to back. Some of the tracks are simply too noisy, overwhelming and a little too striking. But based on the musical gems this album has, I'm giving it a full star rating.

Lost In The Dream

Sex Pistols

4/5

Yesss the generator's been on a good run lately. It's a classic. Very good.

Play

Moby

5/5

YEEES, banger after banger! Totally biased but love this album. I listened to Moby, Massive Attack and Beatles on a very long train ride to Slovakia a few years back and it really left a lingering feeling after, it's hard to describe but it felt just right. Now I'm being thrown right back into that time and I feel like returning to the Spišská Nová Ves thrift store. Great music, especially for dreamily looking out the window

Another Green World

Brian Eno

Naaaah really wasn't feeling this

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

Very good, I like it a lot. Reminds me of my mom

ABBA

5/5

This goes way too hard. And the image of pani musilova counting stacks is still very vivid and doesn't go away.

Led Zeppelin III

Led Zeppelin

5/5

Elvis Is Back

Elvis Presley

3/5

Elvis pretty much be Elvisin' all over the place. I find it interesting that for some of these songs, I've heard them before in a hundred different interpretations. But that's just how it was back then. And ayy, the album's pretty much fine. I doubt that I'll come back to it. Probably quite influential.

Madman Across The Water

Elton John

4/5

I had casual mixed feelings about Elton John before this, loving Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road but super annoyed by I'm Still Standing. Now I'm realizing how good his music actually is. Hesn't quite my usual thing but giving it an up thumbs.

The xx

4/5

I was just thinking about the place where I stepped out the tram like two years ago and started running with crystalised on full blast in my ears when this album showed up. Interesting coincidence... Oxenfree type vibe.

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

5/5

Really really great music. And they most likely took inspiration from Nick Drake, just try listening to Which Will and Hotel Yorba back to back. Would listen again.

The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

Pink Floyd

4/5

Good and good I finally listend

Forever Changes

Love

4/5

Good and liked it.

Station To Station

Ctrl

SZA

3/5

Used to listen to weekend and havent really paid much attention to the album. Overall pretty good but doubt ill ever come back to it. All is talk about pussay and bootay so quite the scandal aint it

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

5/5

This goes way too hard given I'm not exactly an avid hip hop listener. Love the different musical styles.

Better Living Through Chemistry

Fatboy Slim

2/5

Although I do like a lot of electronic music, this just sounds like a constant drill of disco robot sounds. Really not into that.

Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

5/5

I wanna rawwwk wit u alll niiiite dancee u into daaay

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

4/5

I played it in the background and liked it. Should probably listen more to get a better feel for it

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

4/5

As much as I'm trying to, I'm having a tough time distinguishing the tracks from one another. Would probably have to listen a bunch more to do that. But I like the vibe of the music in general, definitely smashed some pumpkins. There's a lot of electric guitar... sludge? And it makes me feel like a tragically misunderstood 2000's teenager dissociating in their room and playing this cd on repeat, simultaneously driving their parents insane. And I'm into that sorta vibe. Very cool and recognizable album cover. Wonder whats the story behind it and the two girls.

The Specials

2/5

Jungle videogame soundtrack except it has vocals and it's also ska, not really my thing

Rattus Norvegicus

The Stranglers

4/5

Enjoyed and liked it

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan

3/5

It's good, don't think I'll listen to it again.

Power In Numbers

Jurassic 5

4/5

Love me some old school hip hop

Nighthawks At The Diner

Tom Waits

2/5

It does feel like I'm in the diner with them, but I think it's safe to say that it gets quite boring. Also, it's not my music taste at all. Maybe it's the lyrics that should make this shine but I'm generally not a very lyric-oriented person. Sorry for such a low rating, it's just straight up sluggish.

Adele

4/5

Liked this way more than expected. Close to giving it a five.

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

4/5

Although I wouldn't say I particularly fancy live records, this one definitely has something more to it. It's noticeably less punchy and loud than most of their studio records, so there's quite a different kind of feel to it.

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

5/5

Love me some old school hip hop. This album really did make a great impression on me so imma giv it 2 dem. The full score I mean.

Arc Of A Diver

Steve Winwood

4/5

Enjoyed this way more than expected, been listening to this in the background for a while now and haven't gotten tired of it. Four stars

ABBA

4/5

Not my favorite abba album but still a jam. It's quite an effective mood booster

3/5

Pornography

4/5

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

4/5

Funnily enough, I already listened to this album in the midst of my unstoppably enthusiastic Album Generator phase. I used to go onto Google sometimes to generate a random number between 1 and 1001 and find another album to listen to that day. I only wish to get a smidgen of this enthusiasm back now, hah. Anyway, this album bangs. Super funky. The track that caught my attention most was Freddie's Dead, since I already heard its cover on that one Fishbone album. Not sure under what circumstance I'd listen to this album again, would recommend nonetheless.

Mama's Gun

Erykah Badu

5/5

On & on, & on, & on, & on, & on, & on, & on, & on, & on, & on... Knew about this one before. Dont feel like ALL of the tracks hit right, but some really do. So imma be giving it the V, vhich also stands for very iconic. ...Or vacuum. Whichever floats your boat.

Reggatta De Blanc

The Police

3/5

Message in a Bottle is a classic. As for the other tracks, I wouldn't say they're necessarily bad, but still surprisingly quirky. And It's also a bit too reggae-y for me at times. Overall not bad, but it's just one of those albums where I'm fine with only knowing the singles.

Sex Packets

Digital Underground

4/5

It's pretty silly sometimes, but I usually have a big bias towards most old-school hip hop. So foar stahrs it is.

Snivilisation

Orbital

4/5

Might have found one of my best studying albums. It's just busy enough to keep your mind satisfied and prevent you from falling asleep, and just calm enough as to stay in the background and not interrupt your thoughts. But couldn't imagine happily strutting down the street while having this playful plethora of beep boops injected into my pair of precious ear canals. That'd just make me sad:(

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Three stars?! That's quite radical of me, right? Well, let me explain. I've had this album saved for a while, but still chose to only listen to Superstition everytime, because it's simply the best track on there. Listening to this album back to back is a super sappy and overly sweet romantic journey, and compared to Innervisions (for example), it just becomes bland to listen to. I'd say that for me, it's just one of the slightly weaker Stevie Wonder albums. And I have the bar raised pretty high for him.

Yeezus

Kanye West

3/5

A mixed bag for me. Some of it is brilliant, the album's highs are extremely... high. And it's quite an influential album. Still wouldn't say it's really for me. Also Káně is a certified éshoul, sadly. So there's that.

Getz/Gilberto

Stan Getz

5/5

Feels like a gentle hug for the heart, a light breeze flowing lightly in-between your brain creases, a warm evening walk in the tropical air when the sun has just set or the tranquil feeling of knowing that you're falling asleep and there's nothing left to worry about for today
