Coldplay
4/5
What a history I have with Coldplay… Years later and I still remember the lyrics. Fitting first album in my 1001 album journey.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
3/5
Blondie
4/5
Funny that this was my album for today since I’ve been digging into Blondie’s discography lately. I’ve listened to Parallel Lines a few times, and while it gets better each time, I wish I liked some of the songs more. On the whole, I do enjoy listening to it, though I personally prefer their debut. I love Picture This and Hanging On The Telephone a lottt. Sunday Girl and Pretty Baby are also favorites.
Giving it a 4, but 3.5/5 is more accurate to how I feel.
Beatles
5/5
Classic. What else is there to say?
Nick Drake
3/5
I had heard a few of Nick Drake’s songs previously and really liked them, but after listening to Pink Moon in full, I think his music works better for me if I hear an individual song in the wild or on a playlist. Sorry if that’s sacrilegious… it’s just not a favorite genre of mine, but certainly one I can appreciate on the surface.
Radiohead
4/5
I can finally say I’ve listened to OK Computer. Nice 👍
4.5/5
Ray Charles
3/5
I like it in the sense that it’s nice to have on in background but not really something I’d actively listen to.
The Last Shadow Puppets
4/5
wow what a surprise! i had no idea this album was on the list. TLSP is required listening for any Arctic Monkeys fan in my opinion. it’s clear that this group gave Alex permission to try new things, and he was able to bring that into AM (see the orchestration on The Car).
while i think this album has some of their best songs, i prefer their 2016 follow-up.
Steely Dan
5/5
my god the reviews for this album on here are abysmal… y’all have obviously never drank scotch whiskey all night long and died behind the wheel 🙄
Miles Davis
2/5
Morrissey
3/5
the only song that really caught my attention was the closer, Speedway. the rest just blended together.
Leonard Cohen
3/5
for me, folk is one of those genres that’s nice to have on, but not something I reach for nor a genre that particularly moves me… hopefully I’ll find an album in this journey that changes that. I unfortunately don’t think it’s this one.
Duke Ellington
4/5
[rating is of the 1956 version]
Suede
2/5
sounds like a parody of itself
Scott Walker
3/5
Paul Weller
3/5
i’m usually listening to paul via the jam or style council so it’s nice to hear his voice in a different setting. he sounds so soulful on this project, no doubt thanks to the blues influence found on this album. i’ll definitely check out more of his solo stuff.
3.5/5
Talking Heads
5/5
i was verrrry excited to see this one today. an absolute classic by one of my favorite bands.
Kraftwerk
4/5
Ryan Adams
2/5
Funkadelic
3/5
3.5
while i do appreciate this album stylistically, i wish i connected to it more. maybe with more listens i will, but i don’t see my self coming back to it all that often
The Specials
4/5
3.5
good vibes all around
Pink Floyd
3/5
When I first got into Pink Floyd, I think (?) I listened to this or at least I listened to the popular songs. I really love Lucifer Sam, and Astronomy Domine is pretty good… in fact, the first few songs are quite nice, but I’m indifferent to the rest of the album. The best for the band was definitely to come.
LOVE the album artwork though. One of my favorite of their many iconic covers.
Daft Punk
3/5
probably goes hard at the club
Aerosmith
2/5
probably would have rated this a 3 if i didn’t have the misfortune of hearing steven tyler sing about his big ten inch “record”
also, funny that i should get this album today since i watched the new run dmc docuseries last night. Walk This Way doesn’t sound them same without them.
Electric Light Orchestra
5/5
either you get it or you don’t
Ananda Shankar
2/5
David Bowie
3/5
3.5
i’ve never liked this one as much as other people seem to… but boy it’s got some classics!
Nas
4/5
super happy to finally have gotten a hip hop album! i actually listened to this in full for the first time last month (though i had listened to parts of it before). a bit of a grower for me, i liked it more today than i did then. overall, really great beats and timeless production. Life’s a Bitch is my fave song :)
Missy Elliott
4/5
3.5
enjoyed it! definitely more r&b than i was expecting, but missy and timbaland make a great duo
Ryan Adams
2/5
King Crimson
4/5
yeah this is good shit
The Killers
4/5
brandon flowers doesn’t sing, he YELLS. really love the first five songs. the rest is okay. i think this would have changed me brain chemistry had i heard it in high school.
3.5
Bruce Springsteen
4/5
honestly banger after banger
Kanye West
4/5
Reconciling my feelings on Kanye has been difficult lately considering how much I love his first six albums. I didn’t listen to MBDTF today, but I’ve listened enough over the years to know where I stand. Not my favorite of his, but undeniably a powerhouse album. I still remember feeling really moved by his 2010 VMA performance of Runaway despite only being 13 at the time. Lost In The World, Monster, Gorgeous, Devil In A New Dress, All Of The Lights… so many classics.
Fela Kuti
4/5
awesome
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
4/5
not his best but still a great Costello record. the first six songs in particular are stand outs for me, and Almost Blue is one of my favorite songs of his.
Björk
5/5
my first björk outside of her iconic 90s trilogy of albums. stunning.
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
5/5
super easy listen, got better each time

Jungle Brothers

Otis Redding

one of the greatest voices of all time
Dusty Springfield
3/5
Queen
3/5
bohemian rhapsody and you’re my best friend are certified classics. i also really loved death on two legs (it rips) and love of my life. everything else was okay, didn’t love it but didn’t dislike it either.
Missy Elliott
3/5
i actually listened to this for the first time a few weeks ago after getting Missy’s debut Supa Dupa Fly. very fun to listen to.
Mj Cole
1/5
go to any dying American mall and this is what will be playing in Express
Fatboy Slim
2/5
music to dance to, not listen to
2.5
Steely Dan

i’m a dan fan forever

not bad but i don’t suspect i’ll listen to this album or even think about it again
Norah Jones
3/5
DJ Shadow
3/5
Elvis Presley
3/5
Beatles
4/5
i’m more of a mid-to-late period beatles gal myself, but this probably my favorite early beatles album.
3.5
Jeff Buckley

incredibly moving. so sad that he was taken so early, he clearly had a great gift.

Red Snapper

better than i was expecting!

Stevie Wonder

woohoo!!! my favorite stevie record <3 it also has my favorite stevie song, Maybe Your Baby. just classic all around.
The Temptations
3/5
Sly & The Family Stone
5/5
excited to listen to more of their discography
edit on 12/4/25: so yeah this is pretty much a perfect album… 5 stars it is
Eagles
3/5
better than i expected, but i probably won’t come back to it that often
3.5
Beatles
4/5
despite being often discussed as one of their worst, i’ve always had a soft spot for With The Beatles. it’s got a few of my favorite early originals like Hold Me Tight, Don’t Bother Me, and It Won’t Be Long while also having some of their better covers like All I’ve Got To Do and Please Mr. Postman. sure it’s got some stinkers but nothing too bad imo. overall a fun listen for me.
3.5
Django Django
3/5
wish it were a tad bit shorter but still an enjoyable listen
3.5
Bauhaus
4/5
this has been on my ‘to listen’ list for quite some time - glad i finally got around to it! Kick In The Eye was the only song i was familiar with beforehand, but the rest of the album similarly has great bass and fun post-punk energy. definitely need to dig more into their discography.
David Bowie
5/5
i always have a tough time picking a favorite Bowie record, but this is definitely in the running. so great all the way through. the Stones cover is clearly the weakest song, but i don’t think it’s too bad. everything else is fantastic, especially Drive-In Saturday which is one of my absolute favorite songs of his.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
4/5
some really cool songs on this thing
3.5
Creedence Clearwater Revival
3/5
for a short album, this sure did feel long. it’s definitely got some classic songs though.
Tom Waits
2/5
i can appreciate this on the surface but it’s not for me
Metallica
3/5
not my thing but i didn’t dislike it either
The Everly Brothers
2/5
Radiohead
4/5
The Byrds
2/5
Paul McCartney and Wings
4/5
the first (and only) solo beatles album i heard when i was first getting into the group around 11 years ago. now that i’ve heard more of their offerings outside of the group, i don’t rate this one as highly, but man it’s got some great songs. Let Me Roll It is fantastic.
Sheryl Crow
3/5
4/5
The Flaming Lips
3/5
i’ve heard such good things about this album for so long that i automatically thought i was going to really dig it. and while i thought it was pretty good, i didn’t connect with it the way i thought i would. very unexpectedly acoustic? i was surprised by that but i guess that’s my fault lol. actually reminded me a lot of tame impala. certainly ahead of it’s time. i preferred when the album leaned more into the electronic rock stuff, like part 2 of the title track. super cool instrumental.
honestly i’m not sure about my rating… feeling more of a 3.5
Elvis Presley
3/5
Stan Getz
3/5
X-Ray Spex
5/5
Everything punk should be: raucous, energetic, and presented with a message. It has the added bonus of killer saxophone and a fearless front-woman in Poly Styrene. So glad I finally listened to this one.
4.5
The Allman Brothers Band
3/5

Erykah Badu
4/5
closer to a 3.5 for me, but I think with more listens, I’ll warm up to this one
Rage Against The Machine
4/5
classic! still very lyrically relevant. also one of the hardest album covers ever.
4.5
Amy Winehouse
4/5
really liked it! definitely need to listen to Back To Black now.

Oasis but less catchy
3.5
Afrika Bambaataa
3/5
Arctic Monkeys
5/5
I’m probably biased because Arctic Monkeys are in my top 3 favorite bands ever, but I think this is very easily one of the best debuts of the 2000s.
Bob Dylan
3/5

Kanye West
4/5
top 3 kanye album for me
4.5
Burning Spear
3/5
most of the songs sounded a little same-y, but it was an enjoyable listen nonetheless
3.5
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
not even ten years old, and it’s already a classic.
Method Man
2/5
i really like Method Man in the context of Wu-Tang, but this didn’t really do it for me.
2.5
B.B. King
3/5
one of those rare times i wish an album was longer. not because i just loved it so much that i needed more, but because it felt like there wasn’t enough here. that being said, what is here i enjoyed. BB King is mostly known for this guitar work, but i don’t think i realized what a great voice he had. and i loved the audience’s energy. i had no idea the girlies went crazy for BB…. good for him!
3.5
Beth Orton
2/5
The Auteurs
3/5
i’ve been meaning to listen to this for a while now after i heard Show Girl a few years ago. because of that, i was expecting to like this more... while i did enjoy it on a basic level and would listen again, it can be pretty dull lol
3.5
Radiohead
4/5
1/5
bad but not even in a fun way. deserves the rating for the title alone.
The Who
2/5
i was looking forward to this because i already knew about the concept, but it just fell flat for me.
Elvis Presley
3/5
better than i was expecting
The Black Crowes
4/5
i didn’t think i was familiar with this band/album at all until Hard To Handle came on. enjoyed this one!
4/5
XTC is one of my favorite bands, so i’ve listened to this one before, but i liked the album a lot more on this listen. really wish it was on streaming, but happy to own it on CD.

5/5
Nick Drake
4/5
I really wasn’t too keen on Pink Moon upon first listen a few months ago, so I’m super surprised by how much a love Bryter Layter. The sound on this one is so full and lush, with lots of instrumentation including strings and sax (huge win for me). Just all around really beautiful.

Pere Ubu
2/5
i can definitely appreciate it, but phew it was a tougher listen than i was anticipating. the vocals were a little too much for me.
bland and not musically interesting but Beautiful Day went double platinum on my iPod touch when i was 13.
Derek & The Dominos
4/5
The Clash
4/5
the clash are such an important band to me. they were the first punk and first political band i ever got into. they opened up the door for me in terms of punk music, and i genuinely learned a lot about the history of late 70s uk and just punk in general by getting into them. London Calling is their masterpiece of course, but their self-titled is easily my second fave. there are a few songs on here that i think are just fine, but most are the fucking best. Police & Thieves, I’m So Bored, Career Opportunities, the list goes on. classic. i’m saving my 5 for London Calling, but this gets a 4.5 in my book.
Kings of Leon
3/5
Frank Zappa
3/5
The Rolling Stones
2/5
bloated as helllll why is there an 11 minute long track in the middle of this 😭
Depeche Mode
5/5
man i’ve been on a journey with this album over the last three and a half years… MFTM was the first depeche mode album i ever listened to in full. looking back, i’m not sure why i listened to this one first (my guess is because i loved Strangelove so much), but i really wasn’t into it much upon first listen. as i got more into depeche, i would come back to this and enjoy it more with each subsequent relisten. nowadays i’d say it’s one of my favorite albums of theirs. Little 15 is meh but everything else is soooo classic DM.

glad the generator finally pushed me to listen to this album after years of it being on my “to listen” list. really enjoyed it! and Cranes in the Sky is easily one of the best songs of the 2010s, argue with a wall.

tough one to rate… really enjoyed the production, plus a lot of the songs are catchy, but i just can’t rate it higher due to the lyrics. dunking on women and gay people for laughs and shock value was the best he could do i guess.

i relistened to this album in full yesterday while sitting on my balcony in the Texas summer heat, and honestly it was a perfect way to listen. funny that it’s my album of the day today.
De La Soul is Dead in my number one De La album, but 3 Feet High is classic. great vibes and so influential! glad i got into the group last year. i love their music so much 🥹

Roxy Music
3/5
i listened to this for the first time a couple years ago, and i still feel the exact same about it… there are few songs that i really like but overall, i’m not crazy about it. definitely ahead of it’s time though.
probably around a 3.5

i love it when i get an album i’ve never heard of and it turns out to be a fun listen!
Beyoncé
5/5
i got this album ON Beyoncé’s birthday??? what an amazing coincidence.
anyways, there is me before i listened to this album as a teen and there’s after. it truly opened my eyes to feminism, female sexuality and more. my friends and i used to quote the opening skit of Haunted all the time, and we used to have dance parties listening to Drunk In Love and Partition. i think that Lemonade or Renaissance might be better albums, but self-titled will always have a special place in my heart.

despite being the most praised Coldplay album, i’ve never been a super big fan of this one. it’s got some great songs, but overall it doesn’t really hit for me. it’s always nice to go back to bands i listened to as a teen though :)
3.5
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

pretty fucking awesome
Queens of the Stone Age

my first QOTSA album! i wasn’t really sure what to expect, but i enjoyed it quite a bit. i definitely need to listen to Songs For The Deaf now.

Dusty Springfield

Joanna Newsom
2/5
really wished i liked this! the instrumentals were nice, but i don’t think i care for her voice that much. it reminds me of björk’s voice, who i love, so i’m not sure why i don’t connect with joanna’s? maybe in time i’d warm up to this, but i don’t see myself returning to it any time soon.

Depeche Mode

talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it

4.5
Lou Reed

this album is a firm 4.5 for me, but i’m rounding up to a 5 because a 4 just feels wrong
Doves
3/5
generic at times but better than i was expecting!

Nine Inch Nails
3/5
i really wish i liked this album more. i’ve tried listening to it a few times before this, but it just doesn’t really speak to me. i still hold Trent Reznor in high regard though, so i give it a 3. also because Closer fucking rules.

Jane's Addiction
2/5
Ravi Shankar
2/5
Joni Mitchell
4/5
as i’ve listened to more of Joni’s discography, i’ve realized that I prefer some of her other albums to this one (Hejira, Court and Spark), but Blue is still such a classic. A Case of You makes me cry every time.

i had never heard of this group or album before, but wow, what a great surprise. reminded me a few times of depeche mode’s 90s output mixed with trip hop of that time.
Korn
3/5
i’d be lying if i said Freak on a Leash wasn’t one of my favorite songs 🤷♀️
most of this album was pretty tiring though.
Metallica
2/5
very rarely do i not listen to an album in full, but i’m six songs in, and i can tell this is going to be one that i don’t finish. i just don’t care. if you’re a metallica fan, i’m sure this is great fun. otherwise i’m not sure why it’s on the list.

it’s honestly hard to put into words the respect and love i have for this album. the storytelling kendrick was able to achieve here is so impressive. you can really tell the vision he has for his music is so strong, even at his major label debut. i really wish people would be able to hear this album with open ears, taking in more than just what they hear on the surface. i really think this album deserves that.

XTC
5/5
it’s hard to be objective about an album i love so much! XTC is one of my favorite bands, and this was the album that really made me a fan. Black Sea has surpassed it as my favorite album of theirs, but i’ll always hold Skylarking close to my heart.
The Electric Prunes
3/5
Dexys Midnight Runners
4/5
Too Rye Ay has been one of my favorite album discoveries of this 1001 journey, so I was pretty excited to get Dexys’ debut today. It doesn’t quite have the catchy melodies of its successor, but Young Soul Rebels is a solid debut and a good mission statement for the sound of the band.
3.5
Pink Floyd

mmmm classic. Have a Cigar is one of my fave Pink Floyd songs.

despite being a fan of people involved with this album (Brian Eno, Flood), i find most of U2’s music to be supremely uninteresting. and i’ve just grown tired of Bono’s voice.

my first Mariah album! i really haven’t delved into rnb too much so this was a nice listen. i’m not crazy about the slower tracks towards the end, they kind of stalled the album for me, but the first half… Fourth of July! Honey! woah.

A Tribe Called Quest
4/5
had the biggest smile on my face when i saw this was my album today.
i love Tribe sooo much. they are such a special group and certainly a favorite of mine. any list you’ll find of Tribe albums ranked probably says this is their best album, which is totally fair. it was a game changer upon release and ground zero for Jazz Rap. but i think the track list isn’t as tight as Midnight Marauders or People’s Instinctive Travels (which might be a hot take? sorry i just love that one). Infamous Date Rape hasn’t aged well despite the message it’s trying to present, and i find What? to be weak compared to other songs on the album.
but oh man when The Low End Theory hits? there’s nothing like it. from the chemistry of the MCs on Scenario, to the back and forth of Q-Tip and Phife on Check the Rhime, to the iconic opening verse of Excursions, this album is so important to the history of hip-hop and to many of its fans - including myself

Pulp
3/5
when i listened to this album for the first time a few years ago, i went into knowing how beloved it was, which in turn made me feel like i should love it too. and i thought i did. relistening today, i’ve come to realization that i feel pretty neutral about it. i love Common People and Disco 2000, but none of the other songs really hit me the same… maybe i need more time with it. most britpop albums i love needed multiple listens for me to get there.

ooh… definitely one of my favorite kinks i’ve listened to. up there with village green and lola
Taylor Swift
4/5
i haven’t listened to this one in a while, but it was on regular rotation upon its release. i still remember the day it was released fondly. my friend and i hauling ass to our local target across town after school so we could secure a copy of the deluxe CD (which i still have)…
the album itself still holds up quite well despite a few duds (Bad Blood, Shake It Off). the other singles are staples of Swift’s catalogue and genuinely great pop songs, with Style being her magnum opus (in my opinion, of course). also has some great deep cuts like Clean, I Wish You Would, etc.
overall it’s nice to revisit this album before her next, which i will inevitably tune into because the 1989 production team worked on it 🤷♀️
The Fall

Blur
4/5
blur’s music has been such a comfort to me this year. i’ve really grown to love all of their albums, and this one is no exception. i wasn’t crazy about it on first listen, but i’ve come to appreciate the genre/sound range that they cover on this project. it really showed what they were capable of at that point in their career, and catapulted them past britpop.
my favorite song is Look Inside America, which could very well be my favorite song of theirs period. i also love Beetlebum (might be their best song), You’re So Great and Death of a Party :)

Simon & Garfunkel

The Sabres Of Paradise
1/5
ummmm i don’t really know how i feel about this one… 1 star feels a bit low because there were moments on here that i liked, but i ended up having to skip a few songs towards the end because i just couldn’t get through them.

Kelela

i’m not super well versed in r&b, especially contemporary r&b, but this was a nice change of pace. i’m always surprised to see newer albums on this list for some reason lol
3.5
Everything But The Girl
4/5
waiiiit i kind of loved it
3.5
Paul McCartney
4/5
the generator always knows….
in the past few weeks, i’ve really been digging into Paul’s solo catalogue. McCartney is a good starting point in his discography and has a couple of my favorite songs by Paul, but its simplistic nature doesn’t compare to the rest of his work. that being said, this is an enjoyable listen and good to just have on.

Madonna

not unlistenable but also not enjoyable…
2.5
Miles Davis
3/5
glad i finally listened to this iconic jazz album, but i would be lying if i said i loved it. it was definitely a pleasant listen, but ultimately, like most jazz i’ve heard, it didn’t move me... i did like it more than In A Silent Way. that might have to do with the presence of John Coltrane’s sax, which makes sense since A Love Supreme is really the only jazz record i’ve connected with in this 1001 journey.
The Who
3/5
hm… better than the other who albums i’ve heard.
3.5
Sonic Youth
4/5

Earth, Wind & Fire

i enjoyed and was surprised by their other album on this list (Idlewild), but Walking Wounded didn’t do much for me. i think i have electronica fatigue lol
Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
pretty fantastic
Public Image Ltd.

Devendra Banhart

Eurythmics
3/5
good but not great
Justice
5/5
for some reason, probably the cover art, i always assumed this was a metal album… well you know what they say about assuming.
this actually fucking rules. i could (and did) listen on repeat. thanks, generator :)
