The Divine Comedy · 2 likes
1/5
Very quickly learning that if there is a UK band I've never heard of on the list, it's for a good reason. There is absolutely no reality in which it was necessary to listen to this, ever. 2 stars for being shit, -1 for wasting my damn time.
Cyndi Lauper · 2 likes
3/5
Some cool songs, some really tough ones. And Time After Time is a stone-cold classic, of course, but I still like it better when someone else is singing. Sorry, Cyndi.

Wu-Tang Clan
4/5
I'm not super into rap but this was charming in how much of a throwback it was. I do like that 90's-mid 2000's style a lot more than what is popular now. even when the sound was relatively stripped back, the rap was holding a rhythm you could groove to - not so much the case with today. Obviously this was hugely influential - I could hear Salt N Pepa, Lauryn Hill, Dr Dre's "The Next Episode". Maybe I should check out some more Wu-Tang.
Alanis Morissette
4/5
My 4th grade jam - just completely etched into my brain. The hits still hit, You Oughta Know is the banger to end all bangers, but the fillers are pretty filler-y.
Keith Jarrett
2/5
Ok I guess. Not sure I'm into 25 minute long improvisational pieces.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
5/5
Haven't listened to this one in a while. Short and sweet, gets in, rocks your head off, and goes. 4 stars for the album, 5 stars for Maps.
Eminem
2/5
Slower and less fun than I thought it would be
3/5
This went down easy. With or Without You still rules.
Billy Joel
2/5
Is there merit here? Sure.
Do I like Billy Joel? No.
The Who
3/5
it's ok
T. Rex
2/5
Like a rock band doing the Wiggles
Travis
3/5
Another one that I had and haven't listened to in forever. 3.5
Arcade Fire
3/5
Not convinced that this needed to be on the list. Funeral eats Neon Bible's lunch.
Big Brother & The Holding Company
3/5
neat
Coldplay
5/5
Why are you booing me? I'm right.
Malcolm McLaren
2/5
The fake radio show bit is incredibly annoying. The hip hop is so dated it's hard to take seriously - like the wholesome interstitial music of a nineties educational children's show. I don't understand why the last track was suddenly a hoe-down.
Various Artists
3/5
Great Christmas album! Still a Christmas album.
Talking Heads
2/5
Why is 80s music so fucking tinny?
3/5
A little too theatrical for me but pretty good.
Foo Fighters
3/5
kept me bopping along but also didn't really grab me
Supertramp
2/5
There is something so goofy about this. A fake rock band for a broadway musical about count from sesame street.
The Divine Comedy
1/5
Very quickly learning that if there is a UK band I've never heard of on the list, it's for a good reason. There is absolutely no reality in which it was necessary to listen to this, ever. 2 stars for being shit, -1 for wasting my damn time.
Supergrass
3/5
Ok, but I don't see what's really special about this. I thought I didn't know any of these songs but I do know "Alright". I like the singles from the 99 album better.
Blondie
3/5
ok. 2.5
Jimi Hendrix
3/5
Flashes of something special but it didn't fully come together for me. Bold as Love was my fave by a lot. 3.5 stars.
Liz Phair
3/5
I liked Explain it To Me the first time I heard it, and I still do. The rest is fine.
Iron Maiden
3/5
Expected to hate this, but it's not bad. Not my taste, though.
Gary Numan
2/5
Do I hate new wave? Maybe I hate new wave.
The Mamas & The Papas
4/5
Ooh those harmonies.
Prince
2/5
I don't get it.
Kanye West
3/5
3.5
What's with all the fucking skits? Kanye is very talented, shame he's such a shitty person.
Flamin' Groovies
2/5
2.5
Fine, I guess. Lots of covers of songs done better by other people. The lead's voice is annoying. If this is supposedly better than the Rolling Stones album, why is that also on the list? Why are there also 5 more Rolling Stones albums on the list? 1001 albums to cover the entire breadth of all music released from the beginning of time, and we have to listen to 5-10 albums each of this guy's favorite 15 bands. I'm sure I will get angrier about this as I move forward.
Dinosaur Jr.
3/5
Did they invent 90s rock? This almost rules - like 2 inches away from being actually good. 3.99999
The Temptations
3/5
Thought I would like this more than I did. Apparently the good version of "I Heard it Through the Grapevine" is by Marvin Gaye. 2.5
Miles Davis
3/5
I wanted to be blown away by this but mostly found it pleasant and sleepy. Track 2 got a bit too repetitive in the middle, but the end was a whole Explosions in the Sky type vibe.
Ali Farka Touré
3/5
I don't hate this but I also don't particularly want to listen to it. 2.5
Kate Bush
4/5
I've listened to this 4 times now and there's still something that's not quite clicking. I want to like this more than I do! I love This Woman's Work! I love all the Kate Bush-inspired girlies! Unfortunately I think it's that 80's production holding it back for me. I'll probably keep trying though.
Fats Domino
3/5
I liked it, but I had to listen to some of it a few times because it kept slipping through my ears while I was working. I wish it had a little more KAPOW. 3.5
B.B. King
4/5
oh yeah
Funkadelic
4/5
Wow, the first band I knew nothing about that I felt really excited listening to. Track 1 rules, and imagine my surprise to hear a Sleigh Bells riff on track 2. I thought the first half was stronger, though.
Joe Ely
3/5
That sure was some honky tonk. 2.5
Boston
3/5
Cheesy but still kind of fun. Felt like the blueprint for a lot of 80s rock.
Butthole Surfers
2/5
Could use a little more melody with the noise. 2.5
Creedence Clearwater Revival
3/5
OK
Cyndi Lauper
3/5
Some cool songs, some really tough ones. And Time After Time is a stone-cold classic, of course, but I still like it better when someone else is singing. Sorry, Cyndi.
John Lennon
3/5
Beatles albums should be here. This? I don't think so. 2.5
Grant Lee Buffalo
3/5
Completely makes sense that the wiki entry is 3 sentences. How is this a significant release? 2.5
Jane Weaver
3/5
Fine, but I've heard this done better dozens of times.
George Harrison
4/5
Groovy but also much too long. Most of it is missing that particular Beatles twinkle but it's way better than Imagine.
Run-D.M.C.
4/5
Soooo old-school, the record scratching kind of cracked me up. The beats were pretty great, though. Fun! 3.5
Ravi Shankar
2/5
This guy is clearly good at what he does. But it's not for me. 2.5
John Prine
3/5
His voice is not my fave. I like it better when it's more folky and less honky tonk.
Fatboy Slim
4/5
A LOT all at once, but so many classics here. All I'm missing is Weapon of Choice.
Frank Sinatra
4/5
If you want some jazzy crooning, Sinatra's your guy.
Joni Mitchell
3/5
This was kind of a weird one for me. Not really what I expected.
Pixies
3/5
ehhhhh. Isn't Surfer Rosa the one I should be listening to?
Isaac Hayes
4/5
Side A rules, Side B not so much. How come nobody told me Isaac Hayes invented trip hop in 1969???
Creedence Clearwater Revival
3/5
CCR doing what they do.
Fleetwood Mac
3/5
Pretty mellow, but kind of in one ear out the other.
Grateful Dead
2/5
You know what you need to listen to before you die? A bunch of jackasses vamping on their guitars for twenty minutes at a time. Live!
Harry Nilsson
3/5
Well now I know who to blame for that fucking lime in the coconut song. 2.5
Ray Price
3/5
Kind of like if Elvis was a country singer. 3.5
Abdullah Ibrahim
3/5
The good parts sound like old-school 40s and 50s jazz, so why wouldn't I just listen to that?
The Allman Brothers Band
3/5
Jesus Christ, this and Grateful Dead in one week? At least I made it all the way through this one. 2.5
The Rolling Stones
3/5
The opener and closer are the best songs the Stones have ever done. The rest is not that interesting. 3.5
John Martyn
3/5
Nick Drake is better.
Radiohead
3/5
Pleasant enough, but hookless, and so completely overshadowed by OK Computer it's not even funny. You don't have to put 5 of every band's albums on the list!! You can just do the best one! 3.5
Bob Marley & The Wailers
3/5
It's good, but I get tired after 2 Bob Marley songs in a row. 3.5
Silver Jews
2/5
When your lead singer sounds like that you think you'd do a bit more to cover it up but w/e
2.5
Little Richard
4/5
let's boogie
Public Enemy
2/5
Those repetitive horn and whistle sounds are excruciating
Gram Parsons
3/5
not my thing but ok
Girls Against Boys
2/5
Maybe this was more interesting in 1993 but I don't think it belongs on this list.
William Orbit
3/5
I know this guy from remixes and collabs, but I've never heard his solo work. Chill, but is it special?
Coldplay
5/5
Parachutes, they could never make me hate you
Prefab Sprout
3/5
fine
Arctic Monkeys
2/5
The band that dares to ask: what if the Strokes, but worse?
Sam Cooke
4/5
generally dislike live albums but Sam Cooke is a legend
Ute Lemper
1/5
The original cast recording of Andrew Lloyd Weber's least successful musical. This better not fuck up my algorithms
The Monks
2/5
What I start composing on day 6 in the padded cell
2/5
30 seconds in, I thought, hmm, maybe I'll like this. I didn't.
Led Zeppelin
3/5
I liked it but I also wish that there was a bit more structure. 3.5
King Crimson
3/5
kinda good, kinda bullshit
Kacey Musgraves
5/5
So good it makes me sad that nothing since has lived up to it.
Kate Bush
4/5
I'm trying, Kate, I'm trying! 3.99
Goldie
3/5
Pretty good background music, but doesn't get beyond that for me. And too long!
The Go-Betweens
3/5
I liked the sound of this much better than a lot of 80s pop, but I still wanted something more. 3.5
Belle & Sebastian
3/5
Belle & Sebastian has just never done that much for me. I did like I Don't Love Anyone.
Jorge Ben Jor
3/5
ok
Buena Vista Social Club
3/5
Summery and pleasant, but it starts to be too much after a while. I'd like a song or two on a playlist, not a whole album. 3.5
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
2/5
I hate this.
Fela Kuti
3/5
jazzy
James Taylor
4/5
mom music, but good mom music
Sonic Youth
4/5
liked the first half better
George Michael
3/5
Not quite my taste but I respect it. 3.5
Yes
3/5
fine
The Rolling Stones
3/5
fine
Barry Adamson
2/5
For the first thirty seconds, I was excited. Where are we going? And then we went nowhere. And then we went to Nick Cave-ville. 2.5
Steely Dan
3/5
Now I get what yacht rock is.
Milton Nascimento
3/5
started vibey but swerved from that as it went on. ok
John Lee Hooker
2/5
blah 2.5
The Magnetic Fields
3/5
So self-indulgent to take 15 bangers and dilute them with a bunch of also-rans. Nobody wants to listen to a fucking triple album. Stop it. 2.5
The Doors
3/5
bluesy-er than I expected
Lupe Fiasco
4/5
doesn't quite hit me straight on, but it's good. Very Kanye. 3.5
Talk Talk
3/5
Well, I liked the sound of some of the instrumentation better than a lot of 80s stuff, but it mostly felt like sitting around waiting for something to happen.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
3/5
Pretty good rock when he's not on his jack skellington bullshit. Retroactive 1 for Murder Ballads since he can make half-decent music and just chose not to.
The Beach Boys
4/5
Album is a 3, God Only Knows is a 10, so 4??
Robbie Williams
3/5
Interesting to experience someone who is an icon for half the world, but a minor footnote in the US. I'm surprised he didn't do better, because a lot of this album sounds like the kind of alternative-rock inspired pop that did numbers here in the late 90s. Wasn't crazy about Angels, which is apparently his biggest hit of all time. Oops
Aerosmith
3/5
certainly sounds like aerosmith. not doing much for me 2.5
4/5
banger
The Smiths
3/5
Morrissey's voice is tolerable at certain frequencies. Unfortunately, he often ventures beyond those frequencies. Otherwise ok.
De La Soul
3/5
Borderline novelty music at times (dandruff song??) but the beats are cool and the whole thing feels sunshiney. 3.5
Meat Loaf
3/5
Insanely over the top musical theater fever dream/nightmare but it commits so hard that I kind of like it anyway? 3.5
Drive-By Truckers
2/5
I'm finally free!!!!!! Stop doing double albums, everybody. I mean it.
Wilco
3/5
starts to go there but then doesn't stay there
The Cramps
2/5
The B-52s if they were less good and also vaguely Halloween-themed. I thought the Cramps were a punk band?? 2.5
R.E.M.
4/5
liked this a lot more than I expected to
Frank Sinatra
3/5
I like Sinatra and I like bossa nova but I think they're better served separately. 3.5
Super Furry Animals
3/5
started strong but fell off
Nirvana
4/5
nice mix of heavy but still melodic
George Michael
3/5
1st half: banger city. 2nd half doesn't live up to it.
Ice Cube
3/5
wanted to bop to it a little more, but it was good. 3.5
Hookworms
2/5
Fine but also completely unremarkable? (Shocker - it's British) 2.5
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
3/5
I respect the musicianship, but I do NOT like their voices, especially when they blast all at the same time. 2.5
CHIC
4/5
Pleasantly groovy. Some songs go on too long. 3.5
Astor Piazzolla
3/5
It seems like this guy is legendary in his area, and this album is a minor footnote - so why?? 2.5
Fiona Apple
5/5
My forever girl
Neil Young
3/5
Pretty good! Love a little harmonica action
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
2/5
ok for ten minutes, but for two hours? woof
Dinosaur Jr.
4/5
This is good. Would probably hit harder if I was 16
A Tribe Called Quest
3/5
I appreciate what's happening musically, but the rapping is soooo dorky. I guess all prog is dorky
Ride
3/5
Ok. Some of those harmonies were UGLY. I liked Vapour Trail.
Penguin Cafe Orchestra
3/5
nice enough but also who gives a shit
Radiohead
4/5
yes
Jacques Brel
3/5
very french
Dead Kennedys
3/5
Falling on the border of like & ok. Not crazy about the vocals, but I loved the energy from rhythm & drums. Mostly it made me want to listen to suspect device.
Aimee Mann
3/5
I like Aimee Mann better when she's being really depressing.
Joan Armatrading
3/5
A little too mellow in the wrong way for me - I kept making it louder and it kept hiding away in the corner. But I did like "Like Fire" and "Tall in the Saddle", especially the guitar work. I bet Ani DiFranco loved her.
Pink Floyd
3/5
fine
Pulp
2/5
this dude's voice is ANNOYING
Sister Sledge
3/5
nice but I also wanted it to go harder 3.5
Bee Gees
3/5
the middle section was pretty good - did not love the beginning or end
Tom Tom Club
3/5
Genius of Love is still so groovy, but I wish they had autotune going for Lorelei. Overall ok.
Snoop Dogg
3/5
sounds exactly like the 90s but it's kind of monotonous over the course of an hour
Frank Zappa
3/5
ok
Korn
3/5
generally dislike metal but this is pretty good. 3.5
ABBA
2/5
I felt every minute of that hour. 2.5
Eagles
3/5
I kind of hate the song Hotel California, but these guys know what they want to do and they're good at it. 3.5
The Flying Burrito Brothers
3/5
not really my thing but good for what it is. last song was annoying as hell
R.E.M.
4/5
Didn't love a few songs but overall I enjoyed it a lot!
Sly & The Family Stone
3/5
I liked the funky instrumentation, but the songs mostly felt like a lot of noodling that didn't really go anywhere.
The Who
3/5
was ok, then it started to annoy me, and it just kept going. 2.5
The Residents
2/5
Something that really makes you ask "is this music?" I get that that's the point, but yeesh
Funkadelic
3/5
nice 3.5
Songhoy Blues
3/5
pretty good
LTJ Bukem
1/5
Video game loading screen music looping in the background because someone was too lazy to turn off the tv. Youtube started playing something else just like this and I didn't even notice. 1.5
4/5
An undeniable classic, but quite uneven.
Cat Stevens
3/5
kind of agitated me but maybe today was the wrong day for it, idk. I did like father & son & how it sounds like fight test
Metallica
2/5
More annoying the longer it went on. I do not like Lars's voice, especially when he tries to shout
Dolly Parton
3/5
ok
Django Django
3/5
Fine, but not good enough on its own merits to be here, and completely unspecial for 2012, so..... why? Oh, UK. Got it.
The Smiths
3/5
pretty good but as usual the best parts are when Morrissey isn't singing
Afrika Bambaataa
2/5
no
Black Sabbath
3/5
Way more lowkey than I expected from the bat biters. 3.5
Talking Heads
2/5
Unpleasantly repetitive. Once in a Lifetime was ok. 2.5
Bob Dylan
3/5
Did not realize Ryan Adams was a Bob Dylan cosplayer. I like the harmonica, I really like Girl from the North Country, the rest was ok.
Faith No More
2/5
basically the opposite of my thing but I respect how hard they're going for it
Killing Joke
3/5
fine
Bob Dylan
2/5
I just had bob dylan and now there's more. Not as good as the first one
Everything But The Girl
3/5
aggressively fine
The Sabres Of Paradise
2/5
thousands of years from now in a sci-fi space travel drama, this will be the background sound of my cryo-chamber as I am locked in for my two hundred year journey
The Beach Boys
3/5
ok. I liked in the back of my mind. last track was pointless.
Paul Simon
4/5
I like this
Mercury Rev
3/5
ok except for the turns into musical theater
The Replacements
2/5
bleh
David Bowie
2/5
bleh
Finley Quaye
3/5
ok
The Bees
3/5
More mid British bullshit? Hot diggity! 2.5
CHIC
3/5
grooves that go nowhere :(
Creedence Clearwater Revival
3/5
w/e
Mott The Hoople
3/5
long sigh
Portishead
5/5
classic
Adele
3/5
Potential hot take: 19 is Adele's best and each subsequent album is worse than the one that came before. 21 isn't bad, it's just kind of boring and one-note. Once you've heard the first twelve seconds of a song, you've heard everywhere it's going to go, and then it continues for five minutes. And radio overplaying it to death hasn't helped.
Steve Earle
3/5
hated the first few songs but then it kind of hit??
SAULT
3/5
I like when the music gets a little triphoppy but it's also giving college student's musical thesis
Primal Scream
2/5
whatever. minus 1 star for naming yourself primal scream when you sound like hall & oates doing house music
John Coltrane
3/5
I don't know that I loved it. I like to feel jazz a little more in my body than I felt this. But I wasn't waiting for it to end. 3.5
Lauryn Hill
5/5
could probably perform 75% of this in a pinch
Mudhoney
3/5
ok
Muddy Waters
3/5
pleasant and relaxing
Paul Simon
2/5
Apparently Garfunkel was load-bearing. 2.5
Kate Bush
4/5
I know Tori Amos loved this one
Pink Floyd
3/5
rock operas are a mistake 2.5
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
3/5
let's go to the sock hop! 3.5
Basement Jaxx
2/5
red alert was good. no thanks to everything else
Meat Puppets
3/5
What is this? Metal/country/proto-grunge? It's ok
Jethro Tull
3/5
fine
Neu!
3/5
ok. Hero was kind of Strokes-y. 3.5
Guided By Voices
3/5
OK. Would have preferred they take the 10 best snippets and make full-length songs.
Robert Wyatt
3/5
The instrumentation is pretty good. The singing is pretty bad. Do I need to be on peyote for this?
Rush
3/5
Perfectly pleasant to listen to, but it felt somewhat removed from me??? Maybe too polished, idk.
Motörhead
3/5
Fine. They're at least honest about what they sound like unlike a lot of these other fakeass "hardcore hard rock heavy metal" bands
Alice Cooper
3/5
this dude likes west side story, huh
Kanye West
4/5
nasty person, great musician
Khaled
3/5
Too long. I was done with it halfway through. And I could do without the extra-sappy cover of Imagine. Otherwise ok. 2.5
The Cure
3/5
Same problem as the Smiths - good music that whiny vocals take a shit all over. Ok I guess
TV On The Radio
3/5
if you told me this was 100% improvised on the spot I would believe you 2.5
N.W.A.
4/5
the ne plus ultra of gangsta rap
Terence Trent D'Arby
3/5
not my thing 2.5
Destiny's Child
3/5
insane choice. if you want to listen to Destiny's Child listen to Writing's on the Wall, and you can just do the singles, even. This album could be chopped in half and it would only improve. 2.5
Marvin Gaye
3/5
nice 3.5
Rahul Dev Burman
3/5
ok i guess 2.5
2/5
feels like I need to be freebasing something to enjoy this
Cocteau Twins
4/5
lowkey rules
Beatles
3/5
I get that the Beatles are THE BEATLES, but this is such an also-ran album from them. 2.5
Simon & Garfunkel
4/5
the clarity is really nice
Ash
3/5
eh
Charles Mingus
3/5
not my fave jazz
Beastie Boys
4/5
Not something I want to listen to every day, but once in a while it Hits
Taylor Swift
4/5
Kind of perplexing as a choice from the Swift oeuvre - it's probably her least impactful album since it's basically "folklore, and it's completely different but also still folklore". And while I like quite a few of the songs on their own merits, somehow the album comes across as less than the sum of its parts. Still good though.
The Killers
4/5
The last cd I bought in the cd era. Vocals get a smidge grating here and there but it's still a banger deluxe. 4.5
Ella Fitzgerald
4/5
6 discs is absolutely crazy work, but Ella is THAT girl and it's so easy to listen to.
Gorillaz
3/5
Clint Eastwood really carries this.
Beatles
4/5
None of these songs would be in my personal top 14 for the Beatles, but it might be their best album start-to-finish? Though it's a weird choice to end with a jaunty tune about murdering your girlfriend.

Veers a little too close to Billy Joel-ville at times, but there's more classics here than on a greatest hits record. Damn, Carole, I didn't know Tapestry was the soil we grow in and the air we breathe

Fleet Foxes is perfectly pleasant, but it's like being in a coffeeshop with good vibes, and you enjoy sitting there with your book and never ever look up who's playing the music. 3.5
