1001 Albums Summary

First album, Iron Maiden. Fuck yeah. Melodic, awesome bass, fun listen. Love Iron Maiden

Going to listen a few times throughout the day, but after first listen some of the lyrics are a little goofy. I like how it gets heavier as you go.

You can call me Al is good. The rest is just meh

Listened to it once and it was meh. Listened after i got high and it was great.

I try to find one song per album that I’d listen to again, couldn’t find one from this album. Ian Curtis might be tone deaf. Mixing wasn’t very good either, could barely hear the lyrics.

It’s all the same thing over and over again

Easy listening but didn't blow me away.

Good reggae

There were like two good songs. They mostly all sounded the same and the vocal mixing is awful.

Not my thing.

I like these guys. Pretty much what I expected when I turned it on, good songs but nothing blew me away.

My kinda music.

Bleh

Only listened to a few songs, wasn't in love with it.

This is how i imagine joy division would sound if they had a singer.

This one was fun. Nothing blew me away but it was easy listening

Just some basic punk. Easy listening, nothing special.

Moody and sonically appealing. I always thought this album was overrated, which I still agree with but I'm starting to figure out why people like it so much.

“We have steely Dan at home” Something about a turtle neck tucked into light wash jeans at a coffee shop in New York City during autumn

Very cohesive. Different sound than I'm used to hearing from this time period and I love it.

Pretty basic sound didn't really do much for me.

Liked this one a lot. She has a hell of a voice.

Banger after banger. Really enjoyed this a lot.

It’s Elvis Costello

Had it in as background noise while cleaning, really cohesive album with lots of cool and evocative sounds. Last song is just music for 18 musicians. Really enjoyed it.

Closest to a 5 star album I’ve listened to so far on this list.

Nothing special, just sounded like every other British post-punk band of the time.

Good coherent music. Like the Bee Gee's. This will get 3 stars from me.

23 minute version of Whipping Post makes this an automatic 5. Everything else is just gravy, the best gravy you've ever had.

Whiny and melodramatic. I can't say I disliked it, but its definitely an album that confirms to me that Radiohead is overrated.

Sounds like the Talkin Heads, nothing special here. 3/5.

I don't know. I didn't hate it but it certainly wasn't fantastic. 2/5.

Johnny Cash live in a prison. Hard to beat. 4/5

My dad listened to a lot of G Love and similar artists when I was growing up, so I was excited to see this one come up. While it lacks the depth of some other artists/projects that come from the same vein as G Love, I really loved the way he infused elements of jazz into this album. If you even somewhat enjoyed this album/were intrigued by it, then you should check out artists like OAR, Dispatch, and JJ Grey/Mofro. 3/5.

This is one of those albums that really exemplifies the term "Rock N' Roll". From sexual undertones to gargantuan guitar riffs, it has everything you can ask for in a rock album. Entire album is concise and cohesive. Final track is the perfect tune to finish this album on. 4/5 stars due to being a little bit bored in the middle.

There's like 3 good songs on this album.

Absolutely timeless. One of the best male voices of all time coupled with rock solid blues tracks, hard to beat. 4/5.

Can't even finish this, not because its bad or anything but who listens to soundtracks for a nonexistent movie? Glad this was generated on a day when I couldn't listen.

It's so so obvious that this was produced by the same guy who produces Taylor Swift albums, not that its a bad thing. I really enjoyed this one but it didn't blow me away. A rock solid 3.

The album felt like it struggled with an identity, but I did enjoy it still. 3/5

Didn't get to this one until the 30th. Looks like a lot of classics but I'm not listening. 3/5.

Easy listening.

Didn't know what to expect, but this exceeded expectations. Cover art is hard af too. 4/5.

Not really my thing.

Meh.

There's some interesting stuff in here, but didn't blow me away. I almost turned it off after the second song but I'm glad I kept going.

First Judas Priest album I've ever listened to. Not too shabby.

This album is a 4 but I'm giving it a 5 out of spite. Too many losers on here who think Radiohead is the best to ever do it, but cringe at the thought of a country album. This is Waylon Jennings we're talking about.

Not really sure what to think of this one. I didn't hate it but I don't know who this album was made for. 3/5

Wasn't really too intrigued by this until I found out it was all Woody Guthrie songs. Seems a little sacrilegious to have a British guy singing them, but he proved me completely wrong. 4/5.

Very very 80s. I enjoyed it.

I like his voice a lot. Jazzy sounding album, easy listening. 4/5.

I was holding off on a 5 star for a few specific albums but man this blew me away. What an album, love it. 5/5.

Not my thing but the soundscapes are incredible.

Enjoyed it a lot. 4/5.

Had this on in the background while I worked and liked it a lot. Should probably do a re-listen and pay a little more attention, but 3/5 for now.

Its not BAD music , but it sort of pissed me off.

I'll say the same thing as pretty much everybody else on here. Incredible voice, wish she did more with it. Still an enjoyable album though.

Incredible. Amazing storytelling. Incredible lyricism. Great beats and rhythm.

Pleasantly surprised.

Yep, that's R.E.M. alright.

It all sounds the same in the best way possible.

Sounds like Marvin Gaye to me.

Enjoyed it.

Didn't listen TOO intently (sorry, Willie), but man this made me feel some type of way. What a legend. Wish they still made country music like this. 4/5.

This was damn good.

Dumbest intro to an album of all time.

Generational vocal talent.

Was expecting more TBH. It's still Bowie, though, so how bad could it be?

Skyline Chili and the Isley Brothers, the only two good things the city of Cincinnati has ever given us.

Genius is right. What a pleasure to listen to. 4/5.

Liked it a lot more than I expected. 4/5.

I have no clue why this album is included on this list. Its so unremarkable. I can hear this same stuff from a handful of other artists/bands. 2/5.

I saw everyone commenting about the circumstances of this concert, I thought it was going to be Cold War related. In reality it was just the youngest concert promoter in Germany (18) making youngest concert promoter in Germany mistakes. Very impressive performance nonetheless.

Better than expected.

Average album that deserves a 3 in a vacuum, but Grohl did the entire thing by himself in 6 days so I'm adding a star for that.

Its Bob Dylan doing a Bob Dylan impression.

Didn't do much for me.

This is the second Beta Band album on this list. Neither was bad by any means, but I'm struggling to figure out why I had to listen to them before I die.

Standing on your anonymous internet soap box and giving this album a 1 star review does not make you better than the person who actually listens to the album. If you don't want to listen, just don't listen. This album is a masterpiece and was released by a different person than the Kanye West that you see in the news today, if you'd listened you would know that.

This would hit so hard if I was on molly at a midnight rave in Paris, but I'm at my cubicle working in Excel. 3/5.

16 songs, 34 minutes long. This one was really fun and took me by surprise. The tremolo that Sharkey has is phenomenal.

This is about as good as it gets when it comes to debut albums. I'm coming to find out more and more that there's something about Black Sabbath that scratches my brain in all the right places.

Yeah I can see why he was such a big deal.

I love the Beatles, but everyone seems to suck this album's dick so I was a little skeptical going in. The Beatles just have this insane way of making every single song that they record so interesting and catchy.

WHY SO MUCH BJORK????

There's been a handful of albums so far with a similar vibe to this one. I think they're fine in a vacuum, but in real life they just don't really draw out any sort of emotion for me.

Loved how short it was. Started really strong but ended up being pretty repetitive.

Reminded me a bit of daft punk but I liked this better.

Couldn't finish it. Wasn't really terrible, but I'm behind on a few albums and this one didn't engage me enough to take the time to listen all the way through.

A lot of her songs sound the same but man her voice is way too good to not enjoy listening.

Pretty damn good album especially considering I don't know what any of the words mean.

No man, you're thinking of "bee-boo-boo-bop, boo-boo-bop."

A lot more folky and americana than I ever would have expected from a 1985 release by a British pop-rock band. Didn't blow me away, but it was a nice listen. 3/5.

Was really excited to listen to this one but turns out its still Prince and I still don't LOVE him. I really appreciate him and his talent, and I enjoy a handful of his songs, but at the end of the day its just not my favorite.

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, yeah I don't know about this one.

I really enjoy Chrissie Hynde's voice and line delivery. Very enjoyable listen all around.

It's 3 in the morning and its your turn to take the wheel on the way home from family vacation. You just walked out of a Sheetz in a tiny Pennsylvania town that you've never heard. Turn this album on and crack open a watermelon RedBull. Time to lock in.

Love me some Fats.

This one was certainly influential for a handful of bands. His voice kind of annoys me, but good listen.

Perfection. Best album of all time. No more comments.

This bangs so hard.

I thought Nick Cave was responsible for the intro for 'The Wire' but then I found out that was Tom Waits. This album sucks.

80s. Didn't hate it.

Its like Walmart brand Neil Young.

I got some very strong hip hop influence vibes from this. Didn't blow me away and probably won't listen to this one again.

Listening to AC/DC always makes me feel like its 1984 and I'm 20 years old partying at my friend's parents' lake house. And I love that for me.

Agree with others who say it'd be better if I was on Molly in an abandoned warehouse.

Better than the other joy division album on here.

Man, this takes me right back to the 60s. (I was born in 1998)

Listened to a few of the songs. Interesting, but not my thing.

Like another reviewer said, its disappointing that they included this compilation album on the list. Could have put one of their actual albums on it. 3 stars though.

I feel like you don’t normally use the word penultimate when reviewing an album, but Knights of Cydonia is the best penultimate song of all time.

Its like an orchestra of electric lights.

Reminds of Joy Division a bit. Not a huge fan of Joy Division.

Didn't finish this one. Wasn't terrible but wasn't incredibly intriguing either. Giving it a 3 for now, subject to change. I have Sinatra, Nirvana and Zeppelin that I need to listen to..... sorry Go-Betweens.

Sinatra does Bossa Nova. Who knew.

The genesis of grunge. What else is there to say?

Transcendental.

I can't do it. He sounds like Spongebob drunk off ice cream at Goofy Goober's. 2 stars though because of Toy Story.

Sad Beck. Solid songs even though they were depressing.

Man, I love the Beach Boys.

Not really my thing, but it wasn't terrible.

Bookended by two amazing songs at the beginning and end. The five in between are great too, but they don't quite reach the heights of the top two and bottom two.

I have a complicated relationship with R.E.M. Their hits HIT, but everything else kinda sounds the same. 3 stars here for a solid album that didn't blow me away or leave me feeling like I wasted my time.

Forgettable.

Its Johnny Cash, so how bad could it ever be? I wasn't blown away by this at all, but again, its Johnny Cash. Very intriguing covers and I loved hearing The Man in Black's rendition of them. But, I liked all of the originals better. Still 4 stars, because its Johnny Cash.

No notes.

I don't think I really understand jazz, but this makes me feel like I'm walking through a city street late at night in the 1940s.

What am I? A pirate?

Not a huge Paul Simon fan, but this was a good listen.

Haven't listened to Kings of Leon outside of their big hits. I really enjoyed this, even cooler to learn that its 3 brothers and a cousin. Interesting to read about how the brothers were raised as well. Never would've thought this type of music could come from that. Very solid 3/5.

It's just kind of sad. I like a couple songs but they're all kind of the same, and sad.

Feels like this was recorded specifically for 21st century rappers to sample. Really cool though, enjoyed a lot more than I thought.

Nobody is a fan of the Dead because of their studio albums.

God her voice is so so good. Thoroughly enjoyed this.

Hahahahaha instantly started laughing when the first song came on. Is this song the only reason this album is on the list?

I like funk, I like Funkadelic.

Not sure what I expected, but wow.

Not good.

Another stupid new wave, post-punk snooze fest.

What a pleasurable listen.

Smoooooooth as hell, but unremarkable.

Oh another British pop-rock album. Yawn.

I loved the pace of the album (28 songs, 33 minutes) but the actual music, ehhhhhhhh not my thing.

RIP Ozzy.

This feels ahead of its time.

Channeling my inner Dewey Finn while listening to this.

Thanks, Dolly.

How many fucking Blur albums do I need to hear before I die?????? ^ I wrote that before I even opened the album. 33 songs and 2+ hours LMAO fuck you I am not listening.

As far as rock operas go, this is one of them.

Didn't really listen too intently but it wasn't bad.

Man, she has some charged lyrics.

Its Tom Petty, whats not to like?

Really great front to back.

There's other instruments that you can build a melody with, you're not limited to the melodica.

I liked it. Subject matter iffy, but that's what a concept album is all about. It IS still fiction, people.

Yep, that's some good shit.

Enjoyable.

Boring.

“Oh goodie, another Radiohead album!” - Said no one ever.

I saw a lot of mention of brit pop in the reviews, so I went into this kind of skeptical. It was much better than expected.

My mom listened to this religiously when I was growing up, so it has a soft spot. I did really enjoy it, I just wish there was some variety. A lot of the songs sounded similar, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The lack of variety does limit the ceiling though. A very solid 3/5.

This is what made me a Green Day fan.

As soon as this started I thought I found the source behind 2017-2020 indie music, but it just kept divulging into something completely different.

Unremarkable but solid.

Unexpected 5! I know Carole King, but I had never listened to this album from start to finish. Lovely voice, lovely album. Loved it so much.

So there's a Grateful Dead studio album, but a live Thin Lizzy album? This list makes zero sense sometimes.

I have no idea what he's saying, but this is good.

Good Brit pop!!!!

I like Bowie, but this didn’t really impress me. I also can’t stand the album cover.

Yeahhhhhhhh that’s the stuff right there.

Good bossa nova.

Jazzy and intricate. Never boring.

I've listened to this one through a handful of times and its damn good.

Personally, I really dislike spoken word lyrics in music. This album is somewhere between a 2 and 3, but I'm not feeling generous today.

Its John Lennon, how could it not be good? Its John Lennon, how could it not be pretentious?

I was going to say 'Dolly Parton lite' but I think that's reductive. I don't think I had ever heard of Emmylou Harris before this album; man I have been missing out. Beautiful voice, beautiful music.

Sounds like most other punk albums that I've heard. Nothing special IMO

Too long.

Lots of flute.

Expected more. Wasn't bad by any means, but it seems like it used a lot of repeated sounds and concepts.

Sonically intriguing and very cool.

This is a delight to listen to. Impressive that Shuggie played pretty much every instrument on the album.

I don't really have much to say about this album. I enjoyed it but it was pretty unremarkable, as is usually the case with R.E.M.

This is great. She must have made some HUGE improvement between her debut album and this one, because I gave her debut album a 2.

Unremarkable. Unsure why its on the list.

Before listening: "Who he fuck is Julian Cope?" After listening: "Makes sense why I don't know him"

I find a certain level of comfort in 80's synth heavy pop.

I've been a fan of The Band for a while and I never realized how groovy the basslines are. As a bass player myself, I am ashamed and simultaneously excited to learn these songs.

I prefer GKMC over TPAB personally. TPAB is still outstanding, though.

More weird British shit. Didn’t love it.

There's something very endearing to me about this era of country music.

5 stars for Ella's pretty voice. -2 stars for 3 hours long. 5-2=3. 3 stars.

This might be my first MJ album that I've listened to all the way through? I loved it. Starts out with two BANGERS and kind of dwindles from there. Not that the rest is bad at all, just doesn't compare to the first two.

There's one big standout and the rest are above average 1960s songs.

Didn’t have expectations going into this listen and it still blew me away. This is the kind of stuff i was looking forward to when i started this.

Hot start with a cool finish.

I'd love to have seen a show like this live.

Do I like Stan Getz or do I just like bossa nova? We may never know.

These hippie kids from LA attempt a country album (semi-successfully), forget that they're doing country halfway though (probably because of the acid), then someone reminds them that they're still doing a country album and they circle back. Somehow it all worked still. 3/5.

Loved it A LOT. Listened while running and it made me feel like I was in a movie.

This could’ve been 5 songs instead of 18. They all sound the same. Still pretty cool though.

Loved the random Steve Miller Band samples throughout the album. Felt like little Easter eggs.

Love me some Funkadelic. Could've done without the farts though.

Liked it. It kind of listens like a rock opera.

Sonically pretty cool but also very forgettable.

People actually listen to and enjoy this bullshit? Yuck.

Beautiful voice.

After listening to a few post-Beatles solo projects i feel like i can reverse engineer who wrote and arranged each Beatles song.

Wow this makes me miss the 80s (I was born in 1998).

Its ok.

I wish I hadn't had time to listen to this today.

Good but nothing to write home about.

I was starting to get REAL sick of all the British bullshit on here, but these guys just brought me all the way back. Sick ass album.

Didn’t do it for me.

Wow I did not realize this was 2.5 hours long. This is probably one of the first albums that made me really appreciate listening to albums from front to back. The cohesive themes, both lyrically and sonically, keep you engaged throughout the entire album. Overall just an amazing album. No wonder its often mentioned as one of the best of all time.

I understand and appreciate what the Newport Jazz Fest did for music, but I just can't listen to 2 hours of live jazz. Even if its the Duke. 3 stars by default.

What a debut album.

The good songs are great but the bad ones are terrible.

I knew a little bit about Can from an experimental rock class that I took in college. Yeah, experimental is about the best way to describe this. The first 4-5 songs are actually very enjoyable, a little out there, but definitely enjoyable. Then you get to 'Aumgn' and 'Peking O'. Uhhhhh not really sure how to describe them. You're gonna have to listen for yourself. Overall, I'm going with a 3/5.

Best female voice in music history, debate a wall if you disagree. Full of soul. Full of blues.

Why is it so long?????

I wouldn't consider myself a Michael Jackson "fan" but I do find myself enjoying much of his music. I guess that's why he's the king of pop. There's some really obvious bangers on this one, and some others that are just meh. Kind of funny though, as good and iconic of a song as it is, i don't really think Thriller fits well on this album. 4/5.

Pretty good and I can hear how much it influenced a lot of the indie punk bands to come out of the 90s and early 2000s.

This wasn't available on Spotify and I didn't feel like spending money on it so I just listened to all of the 30 second previews on their website. Sounds like a project that I'd semi enjoy. Gonna give it a 3/5 and let fate decide if I'll ever listen to it fully.

Better than I thought it'd be. Definitely sounds a little dated for an album that came out in 2017, but I still enjoyed it.

I liked this. Lovefool is a certified banger. The Iron Man cover deeply offended me on first listen, I couldn't get over the kinky "ohhhhh, Iron Man" that she kept singing. I listened again and got over it. Cool cover. Cool album.

A lot of the songs sounded the same and it has that iconic 90s whiny girl vocalist (which isn't necessarily a bad thing). I enjoyed my listen even though nothing in particular really stood out.

Not much to dislike about this one.

Meh. I didn’t really like it.

Not my thing at all. The entire thing is sang in German! How am i supposed to enjoy this???

Every time one of her albums comes up I am pleasantly surprised. She sounds a lot like Billie Holiday on this one.

Meh

This was very good background music for me while I worked. I can't imagine another scenario where I'd put this album on.

Dirty and gritty, but not quite as polished as the group will become.

This is my kind of shit. Hell yeah.

Most of these riffs feel way ahead of their time. Really good album.

Good stuff but I feel like some of the songs are unnecessarily long. Very VERY 80s.

There's actually some pretty cool stuff in here, you just have to listen through a few piles of crap to get to it.

Samples and loops over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Decent background music.

Yeah, this is nice.

Aura.

I imagine this is what they play in Italian hell. When its St. Patrick's day everyday.

Bobby just made love to my ear drums.

I'm adapting a new rating system for this list going forward. 5 - I love it and can't see how anyone couldn't 4 - I love it but I can see how someone couldn't 3 - I don't love it but I can see how someone could 2 - I don't love it and I can't see how anyone could 1 - Offensive to the ears This one is a 3.

This is a very solid 3. Her voice is amazing, but the songs kind of all bled into each other by the end. I like the notes of jazz throughout, but overall its just not my type of music.

This way too millenial for my liking. That's not necessarily a bad thing, just not my thing.

I wanted to like this so much more, based on the handful of songs from the album that are in my rotation. This is not a top 3 RHCP album.

Decent stuff here. I like the features too.

Really liked this. Going to need to listen to more Devo.

Reminds me a bit of a Fatboy Slim album, which is not a good thing.

I was very excited to get this album, but turns out they’re just the 1970s version of a band like the Lumineers. Or Of Monsters and Men. That type of thing. 3/5.

I wish i listened more intently, but oh well. Had higher hopes for this, but it felt longer than necessary. Would probably give it a 3.5 if we could do half ratings, but we can’t and 4 seems too high.

Wish I could listen to the entire thing on Spotify, but I don't think that would change my opinion on it at all. Sounds like a run of the mill 60s album.

Uninteresting and far too British for my liking.

I LOVE 'West End Girls' so I had high hopes for this. Meh.

This could very well be the best rock album of all time. I listen to it front to back about once a year and I am blown away by it every single time. It's chilling how good it is.

As soon as I started this I immediately thought of that self indulgent video of Bono forcing the innocent bystanders of LA to listen to his shitty music. I do fuck with the Edge though, sucks that he had to get caught up in this.

This was pretty cool. Album cover is trippy.

This album is incredibly robust and beautifully produced. However, I am not sure how often I'm going to find myself coming back to this album. I did enjoy my listen though.

It was pretty good, but outside of a few songs it almost felt too meta.

Soothing and smooth.

This was good background music while I worked. I feel like this is the 10th album in a row that I'm giving a 3, which feels weird but truly none of them have stood out to me.

Exceptional.

Over the course of this album journey I've grown a great deal of appreciation for these types of exotic jazz. Turn this on and it just sets a certain type of mood.

Sounded pretty much how I expected it to, which is a good thing.

The album rates itself! Just kidding, its alright. It very much feels like it fits in perfectly with the time period that it was released it. I like it sonically, but lyrically it doesn't really do it for me.

Kanye is one of my favorite musicians ever, so it's no surprise that I enjoyed this album. I will admit though that it took me a long time to truly appreciate it. It comes off so harsh and abrasive, so minimalistic and electronic. The lyrics and subject matter are offensive, and the public's view of Kanye as a human being doesn't help whatsoever. But it is damn good. It flows well and tells a cohesive story. The production is top notch, something that became an expectation for Kanye. I don't really know how to explain why I enjoy it as much as I do, but I do.

This is my fourth Bob Dylan album on the list and its my favorite of the four. I don't really have a concrete reason why, it just matches up with what I enjoy most.

Boring, lame, 80s production. Bleh. Definitely did not need to listen to this before I died.

Great album that fits pretty much exactly into the time period that it was released. I was very surprised to find out that this album didn't do well commercially when it released. The story of the fake Zombies touring America when it got popular is hilarious.

Linkin Park's music has never really been my thing. I know their hits and I know that their fans really love them. Just never really got into them myself. I thought I knew what to expect going into this, and it delivered exactly what I expected. What I didn't expect is that I would enjoy it as much as I did. A lot of it sounded pretty similar, and the rappy ad lib vocal parts are pretty corny. But overall I found myself enjoying it more than not.

I have kind of fallen in love with this genre over the course of this list.

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It was alright. Not a huge Springsteen fan but I can appreciate him.

The arrangement of this album is a lot more powerful than I thought it could be. I loved how raw and intense the whole thing is. Such a quick hitting album, too.

Really good. Feels ahead of its time.

Way too 80s for my liking.

Very VERY of its time. Reminds me a bit of The Chainsmokers, a little more mellow. Maybe that's just because of the alternating male/female vocals. I agree with a lot of other people; its not bad but kind of boring.

First time listening to this all the way through. I knew the popular songs, but now I really understand how he got SO SO popular. Very good album.

This was good but sounded like a lot of other stuff that I've heard from this time.

Its crazy to me how identifiable the 1980s are in every kind of media that came out of that time. I'm sure someone could argue that its true for any decade, but something just stands out so so much about any 80s music, movie, etc.

Another one that I enjoyed more than I had expected. Good stuff here.

I've said it in a few other reviews of jazz albums, but this list has really allowed me to appreciate the genre. I still don't think I have an ear for it, though, as they pretty much all sounds the same to me. This album was good, as far as I know.

Great album by one of the greats who was gone too soon. I remember discovering Biggie and subsequently this album in high school. Great memories.

I went into this album knowing that it's the highest rated album on the list. My goal was to find any excuse to give it a low rating. Welp, mission failed. I like Fleetwood Mac. I always have. But the pedestal that they're put on just rubs me the wrong way. I think it has much to do with the drama of the band, and Stevie Nicks' aura (I have admit she DOES have aura). To me, this album is like the Giants' 2007 Super Bowl run. Above average (but not amazing) team (band) finds lightning in a bottle and creates one of the greatest postseasons (albums) in history. At some point you have to stop hating and just appreciate greatness.

I prefer All Eyez On Me. This album is fine, but its not his best and it sounds pretty repetitive at points. And call me crazy, but the Death Around The Corner beat sounds nearly identical to Picture Me Rollin.

This one started out hot but cooled down pretty quick. Some of the songs just felt like they dragged on too long, and the album kind of felt the same way too.

This really itched something in my brain. Really good, liked it a lot.

This album is actually what got me into this website. I heard about the album and while reading a review on Reddit, I saw someone post about this site. I decided to put off listening to the album until it came up on the list. 366 albums later, it FINALLY came up. The album is good. I have a really bad habit of not listening too intently to lyrics of songs, which was probably a bit detrimental to my view of this album. I still really enjoyed my listen. I love concept albums so much, especially when they're so sonically coherent like this one is. I wish I could've picked up on the themes a little more in my first listen, but oh well. That's what second, third, and fourth listens are for.

Good front to back.

A little better than how I remember some of the other Nick Cave albums on this list, but it still doesn't really intrigue me much.

Wow this one caught me completely off guard. I'm not sure if it was just the penjamin, but the second half absolutely ripped.

This gets a 4 for Rock Lobster alone. I really did enjoy the rest of it too. Surprised me a lot.

Feels pretty barebones with minimal production, which really complements the vibe well. Short and sweet. I thoroughly enjoyed my listen.

I always heard rumors about the pre-disco Bee-Gee's.

Nothing crazy one way or the other. Sounded like a Janis Joplin album to me!

I expected more out of this, I'm a little disappointed. A lot of the songs sound very similar, and his falsetto singing got kind of old pretty quick.

Solid

This was coo. Didn't blow me away, but this is the kind of stuff that I'm here for.

That 70s Show theme

Did not enjoy.

Meh

Why the fuck is this 2 hours long?

Yeah, this was nice. A little different from what I know the Beach Boys as, but still enjoyable.

This was probably really cool and groundbreaking when it came out, but you can tell it is a very raw and unrefined version of what we now know as psychedelic rock. I can appreciate what it probably means/meant to the world of music, but it just doesn't hold up as well today.

I was expecting a run of the mill 90s rap album. This was way ahead of its time.

I had no idea what to expect, but this was good. I heard a lot of Tyler, the Creator influence in there. And I love Tyler.

So so good and the perfect length.

Melt your face off guitar instrumentals. I loved it.

You have to be in a certain mood to even listen to this, but it hits under the right conditions.

IDK man I can't really get into this.

Pleasant listen, but not their best work.

Yep that’s Marvin Gaye alright.

I have such a complicated relationship with this band. Nice solid album though.

Didn't feel like anything to write home about. Solid.

I like her voice a lot and the album was solid. Really fits perfectly, sound-wise, into the time period that it was released.

I zoned out for most of this.

Wow this was fucking good. I've always been a huge fan of blues and psychedelic rock, and this album generator has made me realize that I'm kind of a fan of jazz as well. This album was like a perfect mix of the 3 genres, It blew me away. Reading the reviews is hilarious. Great reminder of how polarizing music can be, especially jazz specifically.

I don't care what anyone says about Kanye today, he used to be King Midas of the hip-hop world. Common is great by himself, but without Kanye's production this album is not on this list.

Hmmmm. Pretty solid but I feel like it could be better with a different singer? But maybe that's what makes them unique? I did decide to pop on some Entourage after listening.

The floor for Stevie Wonder albums is so damn high. What an incredible musician.

This album was so impressive. It's difficult to create a piece of parody art that is still enjoyable beyond its primary purpose and this album does exactly that. I don't know how much of this I will relisten to, but its getting 4 stars because of how impressive it was.

Decent stuff, didn't blow me away.

Gen X Zach Bryan who had a little too much free access to Bob Dylan albums growing up.

Radiohead took a lot of influence from these guys or maybe the other way around. They're both too shit for me to take any time to figure out who came first.

This would be the perfect album for me if I were standing by a gaslight lamppost late at night, smoking a cigarette in the rain.

I need to buy the book and figure out the justification for some of these albums being on this list. This one just didn't do anything for me.
