1001 Albums Summary

First day, first album. Good genre bending album with some great tunes and aggressive vocals. I liked it and I’m glad to finally give more recognition to Beastie boys!

Simons voice is so sweet mixed in this sugary sound

Yep her name sounds exactly like the music, dusty springfield

Knowing only ”I wanna be adored” which is a song that I really adooore, I had my hopes high. Unfortunately the rest of the album was bit of a led down, it did absolutely nothing to me. That said, I can still appreciate it though.

There were no stand out songs nor were there any terrible ones either. Just a OK. 2.5/5

Refreshing, great stuff

Cure for my hangover

Fun, fresh, funky. Definitely has one of the catchiest songs ever, yes you, Ms. Jackson.

Positive thing is that from this project I was really hoping to discover new music and I've never heard of Beth Orton so this was a really nice discovery (especially cause I listen to a lot of female singers of the 90's). I liked a few songs a lot (”sweet decline” and ”couldn't cause me harm”), although some songs were kinda forgettable. But still this was sweet.

I would recommend everyone to take a deeper look into this project, if you're not already familiar with it. Beautiful piece of art.

”To say what you feel is to dig your own grave” Raw, powerful and beautiful. Still, one of my favorites of all time. Rip Sinéad.

Meh.. didn’t connect with this

I adore this album, absolutely gorgeous

I mean, how can you not think this is what she didn't serve here???

I've got into more punk just recently but I feel like this is just one of those punk bands that aren't my cuppa… and some of the lyrics (new york) ugh… not fresh

This goes fucking HARD

Tiny dancer slaps ofc but the rest I wasn't too familiar to begin with so I think I need to listen to this again. Overall I dig what I was hearing.

I had a good time

It doesn't get any better than this. This is a fucking banger of an album, a masterpiece.

It's been a while since I listened to 50's music, so this was a nice little trip down memory lane. Surely has that one of a kind atmosphere in the music at that time.

Interesting concept, but I was really not feeling it as much as I would have wanted to

Not really my sting but I'm in a good mood today so I'm gonna give it 2.5/5 and round it to 2

Pretty top-notch Bowie

I really know nothing about Iggy Pop nor the Stooges, but I always thought they sounded cool, I'm gonna keep it that way

This kind of music I guess isn't just my thing, I did like the first song (\"Santa Cruz\") but then I lost interest. On a positive note, completely new discovery for me

Cute and jazzy. I liked that it is live, really takes you back to that moment

Just not my thing at all and I don’t think I will never willingly listen to this ever again. 1.5/5

I know giving this only 2 stars isn't much, but this was surprisingly a little bit more enjoyable that I would have though. I mean the album cover looks terrible and not a big fan of this specific 80's hard rock sound but yeah, not that bad!

Okay okay okay so I'm a bit conflicted. I always told myself that I never really liked coldplay and maybe some of that has to do with the image that has been painted for me: them just being really bland, bland and boring overrated band. And sure, some of their stuff is really just that and even many of their highly appreciated hits have never really resonated with me and some just sound god-awful. So I've just come to the conclusion that yeah don't care for them as much to really never give them a try, but now I can finally say that I've given them a fair try and at least listened to one of their albums. And after listening to this, I'm kinda surprised. It's not that bad! Not really my thing though, but not as terrible as I would have thought. So me rating this album still fairly low is still a positive thing because I really thought I was going to hate the shit ouf ot this. 2.5/5

Not bad, but mediocre 2.5/5

Nothing bad to say, liked the atmosphere

New enjoyable discovery!

Hands down one of the best hip hop albums I’ve ever heard

Björk's my favorite artist, so I was obviously very excited to get this album today. Her music touches me like no other and this especially has got me through some shit. One of my all time favorites.

This is one of those folky albums which my mom used to play all the time when I was a kid. It brings me so many memories and holds a very sweet sweet spot in my life.

Omg what an awful shit am I forced to listen to, this is torture

Never heard of them before, nice new discovery

Oof these reviews are harsh. Far from Loveless but still found it to be very enjoyable. Nice noise 🤌🏼

Obviously 5 stars

Classic! Never really gave any recognition to Cyndi but after this I can appreciate that this is a pretty decent album. The album cover suits the music so well

Very nice, very very nice

One of the very first records I've owned as a child. Haven’t really listend to them since, so nice little trip down memory lane

Pretty awesome

Feels like a soft blanket

C’mon this is good!

I like his voice particularly. The album over all wasn't matching my mood today, maybe some other day it would have been higher, because I understand the appeal

Just not my thing

Lot of the music that I listen to is around this time period but why oh why haven't I given enough recognition to Lou. Well it was about time

I got high and now I can’t remember anything about this so I guess it was mid

Another R.E.M. album within a week. I do prefer this more than Document, although I find this pretty boring 2.5/5

Funny coincidence, I just started looking deeper into Fugazis discography and started with this one, really good stuff

Never again

Surely bit of a mixed bag, some songs were pretty good and some pretty bad, maybe it will grow on me

What can I say, it’s a masterpiece

No I am not feeling this at all

Perfect for this spring sunday morning

One of those albums I've meant to listen to for so long. So now after listening, I thought I would have like it more to be honest, but it's pretty solid

Ah well wasn’t this breeze of fresh air after having a bit of a tough time going trough this challenge. By far the most positively surprising discovery. Ofc I've known about George Michael before and listened to a lot of Wham back in the days. I don't know why but I just never was invested to look what else was there on his solo discography. I got ”Faith” a couple weeks back and was then pleasantly surprised by it. I really liked it and now this album just blew me away. George has one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard, I never made the comparison but his voice reminds me a lot of Freddies. Beautiful piece of work and the album cover is brilliant. I’m happy to discover this.

”Yo, kick some more of that by Ice, T”

Nice one

ok ok ok I can jam to this, a tiny bit

Mmmmmmh yes

Something about this album in all its simplicity that I absolutely adore. The album cover suits the music so well.

Sounds very fresh by also sounding very 80’s

Tina! Great voice, production not the so much Fav song: let’s stay together

This got some groove! I love this kind of 90’s hip hop, right up my alley

Love me some Neil

It’s jamming, it’s grooving, it’s funking

Wow very nice discovery! Need to listen again

Great discovery once again!

There is not a single skippable song on this banger, okay??

I’m surprised, this was sweet!

Fun 80’s old school hip hop

I've come to notice that when it comes to jazz I'm really clueless, all I can say is that it sounds jazzy

I enjoyed it :)

By far the most bizarre one I've got

Metal music is the genre I feel like most unfamiliar with, I know really nothing about it, but trought this challenge I'm really trying to give it a fair try, at least I'm hoping that I'm finding the the cream of the crop. I'm still not sure what I think about this though… but sure there’s more to metal than just this, I guess this one just isn't my thing. Oh but the fact that this one’s from Brazil is pretty cool

Not the biggest fan of hard rock but this was good

Interesting

Morrissey bad 👎 this album good 👍

SLAPS from every direction

Soothing, sweet, sad, sexy

This made me feel like getting trampled in a mosh pit

Enjoyable

Bit sad that I didn't enjoy it as much as I would have liked to, but it's okay

Classic!

Kinda bland, didn't really connect with this one (except that "All I wanna do" is really a banger that I had totally forgotten)

I appreciate it's something different, but I just didn't really connect

Lots of childhood memories

Oh well I'm surprised. This is good!

I guess this was a ok 2.5/5

Had a blast

Wasn’t really feeling it. I get the appeal maybe I give it a try some other time

This is what I signed up for

I once was in my industrial era

Some songs were pretty good and I enjoyed them quite a bit but this is just too long

Well, it’s pretty amazing

Classic, love it

Delightful

I know Prefab Sprout from their 2003 album "I trawl the megahertz" which is one of my favorite albums of all time. I just didn't look into more of their discography because I wasn't expecting anything similar. So now finally got a chance to listen to this, I do think they have unique sound, eventhough this wasn't my favorite, still quite enjoyable

100th album woop woop. Wasn’t my jam, but this was first Iron Maiden album I’ve ever heard

In all its simplicity, I find this very pleasing

Nice one

What way to start a week!

Ah psychedelic soul at its finest

Nice one

Love it

Banger

Such a beautiful piece of art

Nostalgic. Amazing production. Would rate it higher if it wasn’t for Kanye

Wow, well it was about time to give some recognition to Frank Ocean

Another very pleasant surprise

Good old classic rock

It’s okay

First Smashig Pumpkins album I’ve ever heard

Amazing

Love me some Neil Young

New discovery

Great blues

One of the best and my personal favorite psychedelic rock albums

Holy fuck what a pleasant surprise!

River man is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard

Not a big fan of grunge, but I appreciate the appeal

Classic

Surprisingly good

Nice one

This is lovely. I should listen to more blues.

American pie SLAPS

Ah exactly what I needed now

Good album. Surprised how much I liked it.

Best shit ever
