1001 Albums Summary

Really enjoyed Papa Was A Rolling Stone! The rest of the album was worth a listen too.

I hate that Marvin Gaye is super cool, and that probably my grandma liked him as well. Am I becoming my grandma?💀

I understand that this lady had a unique voice and meant something (less sexual, more punky) in the feminist waves of her time. However. I’m very allergic to this lady’s voice…

Yes yes, political commentary, yes yes, smart guy. Meh.

Musically it is lovely. Lauryn has a great voice. I didn’t know she could reach the Mariah Carey notes! Tho sometimes the songs are too screamy for me. I also don’t feel hood enough for this, somehow.

I thought I liked punk

I could listen to this on a sunny lazy day :) and dance by myself and have a cute time

Ah, the times where hiphop was funky and rap didn’t go deeper than “I went to the store and bought a hat”

Kan-ye or Kan-nay? Honestly, had a laugh listening to this album, and black skinhead is a cool song. I was entertained by his stupidity.

Stevie lost me when he demanded my smile. Oh Stevie, how the times have changed.

Song 2 is brilliant obviously, but the rest felt really complainey.

Hate the voice, love the musicality.

I feel like Lou looked hard at the Berliner scene, but was unable to incorporate it well. Also, his ‘singing’ is so understated… he’s just reading poetry 🙈

Yes.

Ahhh the 80ies. Adorably tame by today’s measures, and very entertaining! I giggled lots 😆

If I’d be a guy living in the 70ies, I’d have my own kind of groovy. Would wear cowboy boots with a bit of heel, V shirts showing a tiny nip of chest hair and a fitted gilet, have my hair in a male bouffant, walk like I own the place, ooooooze manliness and would take great notes from Muddy Waters 🥲

Yeah ok, I get it.... wibbedy scribbedy wack wacka wibbedy wack, *spit lyrics* bang head* low pants * high gimmicks. Very high shock value, no real musicality. I'm disgusted by the gynecologist song. More misogyny. Would like to hear - ripping the penis open and inserting things inside it- version of this.

fafafa fa fa fafa faaaaa! 1967! Crazy! Nice bops!

I dunno. It would be too much to say that Kanye is growing on me. But this album was really funny :D And unfortunately, very catchy too. In summary: feeling blissful, not giving a fuck, and looking for my new job as a drug dealer

Okay. I get bored by very short loops. However, I also, really appreciate the lyricality and poetry here. I can't say I fully grasp what they're saying, but it sure flows with the beat!

This was fun :)

Hilarious and totally mental :D

Felt generic. Who knows, maybe all the bands we know stole their sound in 1980, but how would we know. Not very interesting, is fine. Feed me uniqueness. I'm hungry.

Got very repetitive very fast

Would like their good stuff

Ah yes. The epitome of the genre dad rock. I appreciate the heavy guitar solos, the drums, the sound. Visually, I appreciate young Robert Plant's long curly hair, the bare chest outfits, the oversized buckle belts, obviously attracting the eyes to the sexual bits. Emotional cries into the microphone. Lots of theatrical drama. I just... I like all that on mute XD. Robert Plant's voice annoys the heck out of me.

Enjoyed this! Appreciated the country jazz and rock vibes

Em taught me a lot about life at a very young age. I thought he was pretty cool, growing up. What did I know, I was a kid and he was loud and nonconformist, daring to do and say shocking things angry kids can only fantasize about. His songs are still amazing. But now looking back, I have the mental ability to recognize this the impact of this album in the golden era of rap misogyny and glorification of homophobia. For Em, I can easily trace it back to his mommy issues, to being bullied, and to growing up in bad environments.

It's cute.

It's really tame, but I can live with it.

13:10. Very interesting sound. I hadn't taken real time to listen to David Bowie before. I don't really like his voice at all. 13:22. David Bowie confuses me. I think this album deserves my full attention to actually take in what is happening. 13:35. Was this zeitgeist, or just drugs? Or both, of course. 13:41. I think I enjoyed this. But I'm not sure. 13:45. I really appreciate the sound and the band and the musicality. I think the lyrics are good. Couldn't care less about the voice. I think I'm intrigued.

I enjoy exploring humans in all their nuances and in all their ranges of emotional expression. I think the singer songwriter genre is a perfect vehicle for exploring the human condition, including melancholy. Thought it was a nice study, an interesting human, and quality songwriting.

Sounds very generic

I thought this was quite cute! I hope they danced to this in in sepia tones in 1985 :) I....could like this. I think.

I was there too, the places Marco mentioned. We said नमस्ते to each other while floating into space

I really enjoyed this album. Yes, very tame, very non-unique, but it truly suited my mood and was equally pleasant in the background too.

Yeah. Darkness, disconnect, isolation, paranoia. And lots of tenderness and catharsis.

Nice voice. Not for me…

I felt that, when Eva articulated her love to Wall-e in that 3rd song

What can I say. My dad was a musician so we had jazz, classical and world music on in the kitchen pretty much every day. I deeply adore Herbie Hancock, and this album is spectacular. My soul feels nourished, touched and tingled in all the right ways.

Really enjoyed it <3

Yesss!!

I started out happily listening, but felt drained and irritated by the end. Too repetitive, and hitting the same notes for a whole album. Beautiful and confident voices though, and great lyrical content of course. And hot guys too.

Not entirely my tea but quite open to it :) enjoyed!

1968s sounds silly. At times boring, at times bored.

Ah, creating the stereotypes. It's good, but it tired me out. I guess I find it too safe Between 2 and 3 stars for me

Love this guys voice

Really enjoyed this

Oh no, I really liked this

Yeap

In the first 3 seconds, "Do me baby" . Got immediately tired of it, and the rest of the lyrics followed raunchy suit. It's cute and nothing new, hip-hip-hopping, rhyming and bopping, I wish someone be stopping you.... When you have a stereotype you adhere to, you're just fearful to stand out and be yourself. History does not remember the forgettable.

Alright. Collective angst, loss, grief, existentialism, faith, healing, love... It seems silly to say anything about this album at all. From one sensitive human to another, I recognize you.

Enjoyed it!

This album needs remastering, the elements run into each other…it hurts my ears… other than that, it’s a lovely album 👍

Paul Simon 😊🌸

Adorable

The Bruce!

What Marco said

Jump :)

Yes yes

Rikki don’t lose that numbah 💯 This passes the great-grandpa-enjoys-my-rock-album test, and I’m not mad about it

One star for the flute and minus a star for the articulation and Just not for me

Not for me

😂😂💯

Depressing.

Well jump a shark long in the tooth. By golly, I will use you! This will be my scene music for stereotypical middle class American old folks, in white picket fence romance, apple pie !

To be a trucker on route 66

Good for what it is. My younger punk self would probs appreciate.

I grew up with this :p

Really beatlesque. Not bad

I found it hilarious 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂

Yeah!

Stolen black music. Rocks.

Ugh, Beck. This album seemed more interesting than the others. Maybe interesting is not the word. In any case, it was less depressing, a bit faster. Some songs reminded me of Nickleback and I can’t stand them either.

Beatlesque, and I wish there was a bit more variety per song

Yeah. Indeed yeah. I get the intent and energy, it’s just not very listenable to me. Annoying high pitch screaming and irritating sexualized voice tricks.

U2 is so not cool, but I can’t really hate this. It’s a beautiful daaaay

Meh at its finest

Soothing I guess. It's like having a younger sister in Tennessee. I can block out what she says due to the accent, and what remains is pleasant and soothing. A bit gimmicky. I feel like this could be a radio channel on the Sims.

I enjoyed Live Forever, and Supersonic but in general I feel like Oasis is incredibly repetitive. I feel like all songs could be cut in half. I do appreciate their musicality in general. It also seems very much a product of its time. In general I like the starts of all the songs on this album, up until the singer starts.

Wanted to like this. She's quite shout-y.

Unpopular opinion : everybody is peer pressured or family pressured, and pretends to like ABBA. And since show up in your life so often, that you connect ABBA to fun-ish moments, until the brainwashing is complete.

My score is really 3.5 From modern perspective it sounds like they constantly hold back :D Also you just need to be in the pit at the concert, not at home with a cup of tea listening on the couch. Appreciated the live tracks. I love live recordings in general, love hearing the audience's responses. I didn't have patience to finish disk 2, it became repetitive at some point. Also feels like a product of its time. Tho it aged well :)

😊

a 1 hr 9 min song.

"It was a Crawling nightmare, but I kept Breaking the Habit and took One Step Closer to a Papercut I didn’t see coming. I was stuck in Somewhere I Belong, trying to figure out why In the End it all felt like a Points of Authority meeting. A Place for My Head seemed far away, but I had to remember that Pushing Me Away wasn’t an option. So I just kept on With You, hoping that I’d find the strength to keep Numb until I finally broke free!"

Don't listen to Marco, you rock Aretha.

lmao 🤣

Awesome! Thanks albumgenerator!

I fucking hate wonderwall with a passion.

I guess 3.5

cute

A bit nasal and monotonous but overall okay

This is an iconic album, and was played like a million times at home. It's an album I couldn't dislike even if I wanted to. I can dream these pieces in detail, forward and backwards. Honestly, I adore the rhythm changes, the grand roomy feeling of the recording, the snappiness of the players... I can't not be in love with this album. I can't even walk regularly with this album on. Every part of my body vibes along.

At some point I was a bassist in a band that tried to emulate the MTV unplugged songs of AiC, including a heavily addicted guitarist and a permanently heartbroken singer. Those were the days.

ugh

I just don't like it.

I just don't like it.

I liked song 6 🤭...

cute. bit monotonous

oh yeah

Lust for Life made me very cheerful.

happy tunes + sad lyrics + consistently fragile, hauntingly vulnerable singer = shotgun through the heart

cute 😊 yeehaw

the voice vibrato at the high tones throws me off.

cute 😊

I like his voice a lot

Imagine them performing the same repetitive album every week or so.

Giggly 😊

🥰!

tbh the lyrics are sometimes quite lame, but the rest makes up for it

prat < wanker < tosser < twat < knobhead

the remaster still sounded bad

still cute and tame

'sfleafzy'... mc Articulation Distorder

I hear fleetwood mac all the time at friends' places... I feel like it's too simple, too clean, too rehearsed, too one dimensional to me...

finally some live albums. I adore live albums... I'd like more live albums. Live albums rock!

kinda boring

Lenny has some great songs. but not many on this album.

🩸🍩👨‍❤️‍💋👄✨🪄 Flea is a fucking badass

Younger Elvis is still growing his giddy cheeky sexiness. Found this album really serious. But appreciate the perfectionism.

These seem like movie tunes to me.

I had a really funny roadtrip with a friend where he pretended to be the singer of the Smiths, it was hilarious, now I can't unhear him anymore 😄

I thought they were funny and chaotic

It's good but also boring.. 3.5

❤️‍🔥

queuing up at the chippy, telling the queen where to shove it, and wearing your best Union Jack vest to every festival

BROOOO THEY HAVE A BLACK DUDE IN THE BAND?!?! AND ON THE COVER?!?! IN 1971?!!!! BIG PROPS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Also really mellow, I’d listen to this in the car for a long ride :)

Cringing out 🤢😭

He’s a great singer. The tunes are catchy. Great piano player. I’m just personally not into this I think. I guess it feels like nothing he says sticks unless you want it to. I feel like every second is theatre and overblown, there’s never a different vibe or volume. I could try to like this. Maybe it’s the accent too

Didn’t realize how much of a nu-metal sound this already had in that time. I’m infinitely entertained by metal, but I tend to automatically phase out the lyrics, or mishear them to comical effect. This was great! (Liberate bananas!) Also the drums sound very tribal and organic at times, very clean too. Beautiful! 3.5

Sounds like Air, animal collective, tame impala at times, yeah yeah yeahs at times. Tho distinctly American. Enjoyed it!

Starting off, the cover set the stage and made me very sad, because it's very true. The whole album and its commentary is incredibly bleak and real. I'm not sure if I should dance, cry my eyes out, refuse to cry my eyes out, write a manifesto, become as cynical and disillusioned and plan to overtake the world, or become as cynical and disillusioned and fade into history like this band. Then I googled(well, perplexitied) and saw that their guitarist and apparently the creative core of the group had produced records for RHCP. This is a spectacular album in terms of political commentary. Probably I’ll not listen to this again, but I'm happy I was introduced to this!

It’s a classic. It’s not my thing but it’s great as it is

Back when George Michael did his utmost best to be Michael Jackson

El condor pasa is PTSD but other than that it’s a great album

Half the band members on the album cover looks like they’re floating on another planet🐸 I liked this album more than I’m willing to admit

I didn’t like the remastering quality. They prob have better albums.

Mathematical gold

BGs expired tbh

Björk when she still believed in beats. 🦑

Bruce sounds like he could have a mental breakdown at any moment@Born to Run. This whole album seems therapy focused. I feel like I'm too young and innocent to take in the life traumas of this older gentleman.

I'm utterly brainwashed by Russian Doll, so yeah.. 5

You know what. Metallica is overrated. 3.5

I adoooore his deep baritone voice and the low bass sounds that match...

It's great for what it is supposed to be. Not my thing tho

woohoo

adored the first 1:16, the voice and the rest is subpar

This was fun, tho that guy really can’t reach the high notes without forcing, couldn’t really relisten.

Don’t listen to these idiots, you’re banging

I guess it’s not that bad. 2.5

Oof, so poppy

3.5

This was different for different’s sake. I’ll give a whole point extra for novelty.

This was confusing

I remember these guys from the radio.

Ok so in all reality I hate The Greatest Dancer with a passion, the singer cannot count and sings off beat the whole fucking song it triggers all my homicidal itches Some songs are palatable

I used to be really into Tricky, because of Massive Attack and my massive trip hop phase at some point. I wonder what the dude does these days. Oh I see, he released a song called "Where are you Lately", it does slap in its usual brooding, darkly sensual way.

I actually really appreciated this (hi Marco!). Simple and clean. Beautiful voice. Mindblowing that this is from '71.

This album is a favourite from my childhood so I'm biased.

Pretty exceptional on this list, a film score artist

I love the remastering, what a beautiful clear and bright sound! I'm just not a big fan of the voice and accent.

It seems I like this.

Unfortunately yes. 3.5

It works for what it does. Also Babak should have put a ring on it 😂

Fuck yes

George is a full heart with a small tear

Le Boring Tho

Appreciated, it’s nice for what it is.

Never really warmed up to NIN

Enjoyed it more than I expected!

Ye inner swashbuckler cowboy Irishman be scallywagged off a short pier

impossible to ever stop loving

XD The arrogance is deserved imho

boring

I expected more.... its ok she does want to move🔥

babak what is happening XD

Yes🔥

It be smooth and sexy, in a bald and black kind of way. this is 1969, bloody hell. This sound still lives strong.

I liked it

How beautifully they collectively sense each other out and give each other space lmao Marco XD

this feels like it comes from the period of buffy the vampire slayer 3.6

I really enjoyed this. Tally ho.

Nice remastering.

Strum strum strum

The ultimate tv jingle album

Yeaaah

Ah, se ela soubesse

Overrated

Sure. Why not.

It's an adorable album that I don't mind hearing from time to time.

Very relaxing in the background

great for coding. very relaxing and soothing too.

negative experience to listen to while coding, but great for cleaning the house
