1001 Albums Summary

Okay I've never heard of this band before but I immediately recognize the intro. I like the chill vibe, it's great background music. Very airy and minimal. Worth giving it a second listen to find my fav songs and adding them to chill stoner playlists. Right up my alley. 4/5

Love one of your bucked-headed hoes? No way. Love this album? Yes way.

A classic, so much fun to revisit. One of my favorite Fleetwood Mac albums.

not my favorite. Loud, noise, scary. Mom can you come pick me up? Kids are drinking alcohol.

His voice carries me through my day. Instant classic, and well deserving of this recognition. Beautiful yet mournful. The interlude held my hands as I reminisced on the anxiety I felt in 2016 as I hid in the closet of a married mans house when his wife came home too soon. Dying phone in one hand, pants and phone charger in the other. "text Kate" Michael Kiwanuka whispers. I do. "I know I'm here and I don't belong" Kiwanuka reminds me, on his next track, Solid Ground. He's right. 5/5.

"Rhymes are smokin', concentration can't be broken. Queen Latifah's Outspoken." Groovy and soulful like I expected from Queen Latifah. She blends rap with reggae, jazz, and hip hop. QL sets the expectation early in Latifah's Law. The Queen of Royal Badness has a lot to say, and this f*ggot ain't got nothin' better to do than listen. Latifah doesn't shy away from addressing racial apartheid, pleasure politics, feminism, and mass-incarceration. I wanted to take away a point for the chipmunk noises at the end of Mama Gave Birth to the Soul Children, but after Evil That Men Do, I can't. 5/5.

Not as sad as I thought it was gonna be. Jeff could hit it.

I’ll confidently say I didn’t listen thoroughly. I played this while gaming, while working, and while being a sloot and I never found peace with the noise. I became a boomer listening to this. Back in my day, we broke shit and smashed the system, man. Says the generation that caused the mess we’re in. 2/5, I didn’t hate it just didn’t like it.

It’s no Cheap Thrills by AI pop superstar SIA, but I dig it. 3/5

Alright. If I’m gonna play damn ass 80’s rock this is the album for me. 4/5, actually enjoyed. Would put out for Duran Duran.

Thought the album was called Sweetheart of the Radio at first. Made me lol. Very of the time, I can’t complain. Not my everyday music but certainly has its place on my speakers. Namely when I’m not in the room. 2/5 but would listen again.

Nostalgia, cunt, and wholesome. What else could I ask for for Christmas?

The kind of music I’d Shazam in a bar while I’m really stoned, but then Shazam another song afterwards and not know how to find my history to see this song again. I played this album while in a 110° steam-room shower in Chicago smoking herb and it was ethereal.

Better than I thought it would be, definitely brought me to the 80’s. I will give them credit for being surprisingly candid though. Particularly talking about chasing the dragon on Mr. Brownstone, this band stood out among a sea of boomer cis/het white men that is 80’s rock. 4/5, I would play again surprisingly.

So much white noise. Added one song to a playlist and banished the rest to hell. 2/5

Ummm not my favorite. Too much to listen to at once lol

Really enjoyed them!! Good music that I wouldn’t have picked out myself.

I was really excited to listen to this, but I think I should have simply been excited. It was chill, not dtf though.

I started writing my review and it turned into a suicide note so I’m gonna start again. I was cooking when I listened to this album and fell asleep standing up like some fucking bitch ass horse and then woke up to this cis/het white boy singing to me saying that it’s all in my head??? Is what all in my head??? My depression ??? Is white boy gaslighting me?? Spit your fuckin words out and say them with your chest, pussy hoe. The focaccia I’m making is more interesting than this album so here’s my recipe: Focaccia 2-3 cups warm water 2 1/4 tsp yeast 1 heavy tsp honey Allow to bloom ~10 minutes Add 4 cups flour 1tsp salt 1tbs eeoo Mix, cover, and let rise 30 minutes Fold 4 sides in, add eeoo around edges of bowl, cover, and let rise 30 minutes. Repeat total of 4 times. Transfer to 9x13 or two smaller baking sheets that’s covered in more eeoo that you think you need. About 1/4 cup. Flip dough over in oil so it’s completely covered and make dents with fingertips, cover and let rise 45-60 minutes. Bake at 450° 22-25 minutes with bowl of water underneath Incorporate herbs, Calabrian chilis, and hard cheese into folding process or when you make dimples at the end. If you add them at the end, consider chopping them up in advance and marinating them in olive oil while you do the rest of the baking to incorporate flavor into the oil you use.

This is the first repeat album for me because I got about 10 albums in before I restarted with my current group. I’m glad I listened to second time I will say. It’s chill, I added a couple songs to playlists last time and added a couple more this time too. Really enjoyed East St. Louis Toodle-Oo! I always enjoy and appreciate Stanley Dean.

fuck The Wombats for making me believe you could dance to Joy Division. This was a hot pile of dookie spice and I know all these hoes walking around with Joy Division band tees have never heard a real song from this album bc if they did they’d never rep this trash band. They’re lucky to get 1 star from me.

Having more than one moody British bands in a row might impact my rating, but like….go to therapy

Listening to this brings me back to the time I went to an underground experimental film festival-it makes me want to relapse. I can tell the drummer is talented, the guitarist shreds, and the singer has showed up to rehearsal. That doesn’t mean I enjoyed it though.

Fun! I’m glad this came up because I was getting suicidal listening to so many British bands lately. Occasionally the sound was a little squeaky and kinda hurt my hear, but I’m guessing that’s either bc of when this was recorded or the instruments fault?? Idk but it was slightly bothersome at times.

Every song feels like the background music for the scene in a movie when the protagonist is at their lowest point and walking away from a situation, in the rain, after missing a bus, with a paper bag that just broke and spilled their groceries all over the pavement. A homeless man just walked by and gave this protagonist his coffee mug with $.13 in it. Keon pity party monologue that ends with them on a couch with empty to go containers surrounding them, haven’t shaved in days, and dirty as I’ll get out.

Isaac Hayes could lather my soul with hot butter after listening to this. Love a long song that keeps me entertained. These two-minute pump-and-dump Ariana grande songs today can’t make me nut like hyperbolicsyllabicsesquedalymistic can.

I’m so tired of British trash like this being considered good. “I’m Straight” is a whole song about not smoking weed??? Maybe if you did you’d actually write good music. Fuck, I’m jealous of anyone who’s never listened to this trash.

I wanna know what the hoes rating this 5/5 think of actually decent music. It’s so damn whiny, bland, and poorly written.

I enjoyed that they included an album that wasn’t in english. Is it my favorite album? No. Did I really enjoy playing this in the background all weekend though? Yes.

Tbh this album felt like I was being edged by the intro of a Linkin Park Song. I wasn’t mad about it, until he started saying “cut the kids in half.” Not as much of a downer as I thought it would be though.

What's that noise? Turn it off.

Who would knew there was more where Mr. Blue Sky came from?

I wanted to like this album so bad, but then I heard Aladdin Sane and realized it sounded like a deaf child performing the piano for some sort of make-a-wish deal where everyone pretends their doing so well, sweetie. Bowie’s supposed to be a sex icon, but is he hot or is he just white and skinny? I’ve always wanted to like Bowie, but the sickly twink is just fine in my book. By the end of the album, I did come around to it enough. It was a rough start, and it’s hard to forgive him after the namesake for the album was so hard to stomach, but I did I guess. Panic in Detroit, Drive-In Saturday, The Prettiest Star, and The Jean Genie were some of my favorites. A wonderful listening experience even after the rough start, but I like it rough so I can’t complain.

Baby boomers singing about their generation is so ick.

It’s so hard not to compare this to the white stripes. It’s not bad, but like Harry Styles going solo after One Direction: sometimes you’re just better with the band.

Never heard this album before, and of course, the only song I recognize is In The Street. I could see myself playing it again, though, it was enjoyable! Nothing special, but a good vibe.

I love everything about this. The vibes, the music, the lyrics. Is Kendrick eating puss in a Rockford baseball diamond outfield? Cause he’s in a league of his own.

do I like this album? No. Will I listen to this album ever again? No. But, I can see why someone would like it and listen to it. I’m not mad about it, but as soon as this album was done, I switched over to listening to Lofi. Maybe I just lack culture.

I loved this album. I came into it only knowing one song, but left with multiple on my playlists. Would listen again, did listen again.

Chill, I enjoyed this in the background. I'll add a couple songs to my folk/country/soft indie playlist, but that doesn't mean I love this album. I'm just not mad about it.

This music wasn’t made for me but I do appreciate the lyrics “I’m not Jesus but I have the same initials…I’d like to turn this water into wine.” Perfect music for gay Christmas (Halloween).

I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand.

Such a banger. One of the best on this list. No complaints, all vibes.

This album wasn't bad, it just did nothing for me.

This was. fun. 4

This album was pretty fun, but I also didn't get into it. a 1 and a 4 at the same time....a three>>>????

if this album is the result of the carceral state, maybe I'm not an abolitionist after all (ACAB)

Gay synth pop, can’t complain.

Holy fuck he must hate Illinois

This album made me believe in aliens

I really thought I was gonna like this…not only was it not great, I just don’t think this white man sampling all black music with very little credit to original artists was worth it

In the eloquent words of my beloved friend, Emma, this album was: Ok

I feel like kids who I thought were cool in middle school would’ve loved this album. Reminds me of getting bullied, so plus one point for that.

The 1001 albums don’t pass the bechtel test. Still enjoyed this album though

Great drums, beat, lyrics, etc. Not a great time though.

It was boring and enjoyable at the same time. I enjoy it as background music, but not sure I enjoy listening to the entire album through. I do love background music so I'm rounding it up.

I'm not a Korn addict :/

IDK man I'm just not sold on the juice, but I would display this album cover

Surprisingly enjoyed it

1001 albums taught me I love funk. The joy, pleasure, and soul motivate me in ways these British bands could never.

It kinda just sounds like grown ass men having fun. I’m not mad about it

This album motivated me to do the fattest line of imaginary cocaine off my work-issued laptop and proceed to be productive as fuck. Once I sobered up, I realized I had just been creating a zine in Canva Pro.

I caught myself looking to see how many more songs were left on this album multiple times. That's not a good sign. Honestly, a song or two wouldn't be bad. An entire album made up of this music made me say, "yeah, let's get killed."

I've never seen phantom of the opera but this is what I imagine their soundtrack to look like. Listening to this gave me mental illness. Maybe that's why I kinda liked it??? 3.5 rounded up

I'd rather wake up every morning hungover and naked in a ditch than finish listening to this album for my first and last time.

Not for me lol

IIIIIIIIIIIIII kinda vibed with it. There are a lot of things I'd do with a flute before I'd consider playing one, let alone putting it in a rock band. I'm here for it. It's a psychedelic good time. +1 point for the use of flute and, call me a hater, but -1 point for being British. Also, I love the cover art. Incredibly relatable.

+1 point for the album cover accurately depicting what I wanted to do to my computer while listening to this album.

If you're protesting this album because the artist is a nazi - I see you, understand where you're coming from, but challenge you to listen to this through once and put in effort to understand the messages and influence of this album. If it makes you feel better, you playing it once isn't getting him rich. Whatever streaming platform you're listening to it on underpays their artists anyways. If it still bothers you, put your money where your mouth is and donate to a nonprofit. Actually, if you're not making a monthly reoccurring donation to a nonprofit that benefits some sort of marginalized community, particularly a local nonprofit to you, then your protest is likely performative. This album is so damn good. Undeniably so. I have to admit, The New Workout Plan has been on my workout playlist for years. Through The Wire was literally recorded with his mouth wired shut from facial reconstructive surgery after a car accident two weeks prior to recording. And to sample a queen, Chaka Khan, is just iconic. Slow Jamz, Breathe In Breathe Out, All Falls Down, Family Business....So many great songs from this album. I would listen to this album more regularly if he weren't a nazi.

Sledgehammer was really good, I loved hearing Kate Bush, but overall just a little boring for me. It’s good, just boring to me…like basketball.

I tried to like this. Some songs were a lot of fun, others were just too weird for me. Unfortunately, I lack taste.

I love her voice. I saw someone describe it as luscious and it’s the only word I will use. I, for whatever reason, never thought of her as a pop singer until I listened to this album today. I see it now and I wish she had more to say. I wish she were a little messier or gritty. I’ve seen clips from her interviews where she gets raunchy - she has personality. If she brought it to her music, she might feel more dynamic. Her hyper fixation on nostalgia makes me look at her like a republican. I get it, you miss being young (as a 25 year old?), but let’s hear something new.

This reminds me of music that would play dramatically in a bad alternative 2011 movie. Would listen again if I wanted to ruin my day.

It does nothing for me, but I get it. It's like eating caprese. I get it, it's just never actually exciting or groundbreaking.

C'mon 1001 Albums, gurl give me nothing!!! If someone took a spy movie's soundtrack and turned it into LoFi or/instrumental music this would be the result. I love boring music though.

Amazing songwriter and poet. I love his voice, but understand why so many artists cover his music and put their own twists on it. I listen to Leonard Cohen often and can't complain.

Really into this, but I had never heard of this band until today. Great lyrics, great beats, no complaints. Ponderosa made me want to pick up a bad habit, but in a good way. I can only describe Black Steel by highlighting the opening lyrics: "I got a letter from the government the other day Opened it and read it, it said they were suckers They wanted me for their army or whatever Picture me givin' a damn, I said, never" Hell Is Round the Corner and Strugglin' were instantly added to my Halloween Playlist, Aftermath is a banger, Abbot Fat Tracks was juicy, and You Don't was funky yet delicious. Brand New You're Retro fucked my neighbor and made me listen. Suffocated Love doubled down on that. You ask why this is? Mind your business. I had fun.

This album reminds me of when you take too much acid and then finger blast your ex to try and get her back only to sober up and realize you've been fondling your switchboard for the past few hours. Unfortunately, he hit the g-spot here. Stacy, if you're reading this please come back.

-1 point for using my vocals at the end of One of Us Cannot Be Wrong without my permission??? His rotting corpse can talk to my fuckin lawyer.

I thoroughly enjoyed putting this on and forgetting to listen to it and then remembering just in time for it to be over. Three times.

The British colonized music like they colonized the global south. I'd rather drink warm fracking water than listen to another sub-par British rock band. In lieu: I recommend listening to the album Thunderbitch by Thunderbitch. It's a Brittany Howard band that only put out this album in 2015. This is roughly during the end of her time with Alabama Shakes and before her time with Bermuda Triangle and then her solo career. Much better rock than these white boys singing about a murderer's preserved eye balls.

It's not for me, but it was a lot better than I was expecting.

I saw Blondie live once and it took my virginity. Also, my boss said he was a groupie for Blondie for a summer in college and followed them around the prairie states and got to go backstage and party with them the entire time. That was cool to learn.

I can't argue Billy Joel. Such a good album that I've never listened through until now. One of those albums I'm recognizing more songs than I thought I would and I appreciate that.

Starting my Monday off with Simon and Garfunkel really set me up on my high horse and man do I already know I'm going to fall hard. Good album, I forget how short some albums are though.

I was not expecting to actually like this album. I'll never listen again, but I do appreciate it more than I thought I would.

This was a lot and certainly not my vibe. School's in for me, sorry Mr. Cooper. I understand why people like it, but I just will never listen to this again.

Hear me out: This was a banger. I wish this were streamable so I could listen to these socialist anthems more.

I used to say One Direction could do what the Beatles did but the Beatles couldn't do what One Direction did, but I see the error in my ways now. The Beatles aren't that bad.

Not to be homophobic, but maybe David Bowie just isn't for me.

This didn't cure shit.

Randall telling me that all Americans are happy and then about how lonely it is at the top feels politically insensitive right now.

I'm starting to think this list is literally just rage bait.

Would.

Really enjoyed. Team Stevie!

Why did I assume this was going to be a 5 star album? Good, but not 5 stars.

Not bad enough to make me want to shoot a woman in the mouth, but you never know.

I love music that makes me feel like I'm waitin' at the bus stop late on a rainy night with a woman standing across the street under a flickering streetlight. Bitch, if you don't stop contortin’ your body like that

Hearing Meatloaf sing "for crying out loud, you know I love you" really hit in ways I didn't expect it to.

Don't tell anyone I asked this, but....are The Rolling Stones bad?

Honestly, did not hit. She can sing, but what's the point of singing bad songs?

Twas fine I guess.

Nobody's Perfect might be the worst song I've ever heard in my life. A loss for women.

ACAB except these police.

No thoughts, but I enjoyed it enough!

the lyric "you stupid dumb shit motherfucker" brought a tear to my eye

in the words of U2, "it's alright, it's alright, it's alright."

I love background music. Go ahead give me sweet nothings, Brian!!!

This reminds me, I'm late for my appointment to steal a convertible and drive way too fast outta town with nothing but a smokin' babe at my side and a bag of viagra and cocaine. Don't let me forget my beer.

I'm lathering respect on the name Otis Redding like butter.

I don't have the knowledge to explain why this feels outdated and simple, but I understand how this album is considered so important. It feels like a playground rhyme compared to modern artists, especially when they do that thing where they take turns saying each word in a sentence. I can see how this is the prelude to, say, Cardi B, but man is it hard to go back in time. I wish I were able to experience this in its time.

not me screaming "Ow!" back to JB in my office :')

This reminds me of other bad 80's albums except it was consumable.

Something I appreciate about 70's white man rock is seeing how different concepts of masculinity were compared to today. It's good, but not for me. Like Vienna sausage and apple-cinnamon oatmeal.

Pst "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard" is a gay tragedy

This felt like the soundtrack to Challengers if it wasn't horny.

The title to the album MASSIVELY misled me. Little disappointed ngl

Clown music at times tbh

Not my favorite pervert but rock on

Makes me feel like I'm on an adventure that's not too crazy but just a little out there, ja feel?

I tried to care, but couldn't :/

This is super chill. I'm really into this! Also, love the cover art.

This was such a party, and I was very surprised by it

The cover art excited me, but the sound of the music stabbed me in the back.

Loving this album! Gives me baseball vibes at some points, but I’m not complaining.

I've been listening to sad music this week so it really hit the vibe for me. I had a great word in mind to describe this album and then forgot it so I spent over an hour looking at thesaurus.com to find it again. I never found it :/

I listened to it....honestly who the hell is Peter and why should I care about him???? 3???

An album for people who truly deserve their government disability checks. Seek therapy immediately if you enjoyed this.

Not the greatest Stevie Wonder moment, but a great one definitely!!

I love a short king (re: album length)

Take your own advice, Syd. It's no Good Trying...

It was neat to put music to the name, Beastie Boys, but it got old fast. Hush little white boys, but I did like the sampling.

Brian suffered so you could listen to Good Vibrations in a Long John Silvers bathroom

Oh to be a fly on the dirty ass wall of whatever drug den this album was created in

bring out the glue!!

I think the significance of this album is to show that queens can flop too. Rounded up for the lyric “like a priest with a pornographic watch”

I was not surprised to hear him screaming about gardening and then I was even less surprised to hear the lyrics to his corny ass song “Does Anybody Out There Even Care.”

I’m such a hater. Forgive me lord but chore is the word I too would use to describe my experience listening to this album.

What’s the tea? This album was not for me.

I'm just not a Pink Floyd fan, sue me

I would rather be mauled by this clearly bisexual crab than listen again

Not as bad as I remember, actually kinda liked this album tbh

Sometimes I stare at the “Did Not Listen” button with lust. I long for a timeline in which I had decided not to listen to this one album. Who would know? Who would care? I imagine in that timeline we brought out the guillotine for lousy politicians, enacted universal healthcare and other socialist policies that truly benefit us, the people. But I just know in my heart of hearts that listening to “Happy Monday’s” is what took that future utopia from me. From us. Anyways, congrats Ariana on Sweetener.

Such a good time. If You Were There flirted with me at the Applebees bar and then You Walk Your Way tossed my salad on a booth under an Applebees stained glass light fixture. I think we all know what happened during Sunshine (Go Away).

This [redacted] couldn't make listenable music if her [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] until [redacted] [redacted] and [redacted] [redacted]. Her [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] was simply too [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] for my personal taste and I've tasted [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] on a hot [redacted]. I wish her the [redacted] [redacted] [redacted]. And all y'all [redacted] [redacted] rating this anything more than one star are [redacted] liars who deserve [redacted] [redacted]. See y'all in [redacted].

Political, chill, and sexy

Would've been better without any words.

I liked this album until I punched a barista for handing me a hot coffee. I asked for it hot, but G. Love told me I wanted a cold beverage and my barista wanted a knuckle sandwich. Not very chill white boy of me.

David Bowie: An Icon I can't get behind. Like Jane Lynch. I wouldn't stand behind that woman after all that yogurt.

Fatboy Slim fucking in heaven is my personal Pearl Harbor. This album sounds like if a white dude took a great funk record, a few Viagra, too much acid, and then asked himself "how can I make this album suck?"

wazzup losers, i bet u thot id h8 this

There are a lot of reasons to hate boomers, but listening to this and thinking “yeah, Mr. LED can sing” is a top 20 reason.

This album made me pro-9/11. I hate the west for allowing this album to happen.

This is like if Fiona Apple was good

I think about half of the albums on this list deserve to be on this list. This definitely deserves to be here.

Rubbish

Mental illness!!!!!

Listen...for an artist who's known for their lyrics and storytelling, this is fine at best. +1 point out of fear that some bitch in red lip stick and a cardigan will run me over with her call singing no body no crime if I leave too low of a review.

Today I learned Bob Dylan and Bob Marley are different people. I also learned I prefer Marley...but Dylan seems cool too tbh

fuck them kids

Refreshing change from British junk, but it does feel like the so-called music critics who created this list saw this film and decided to throw this album on as a token.

what those hands do

If I ever start drag, I'll only perform to Tom Waits.

id' get nasty to this

not all 1001 can be good

I know I should like Fast Car, but it makes me want to throw up. Everything else sops up that vomit tho!!!!

I always assumed I wouldn't like them but I loved

All bangers no mash

ive sucked ur dads dick to this album

proof american exceptionalism isnt real

this album reminds me of the time I was fired from my university job at the beginning of a shift and then asked to work the rest of my shift. I stuck around for a few hours until an average looking man offered to eat my ass, then I just got up and left early.

the kind of music your straight white friend puts on while you're smoking. He keeps promising you it gets better. Okay, Dan Savage.

We all have journeys, I’m glad Nick Cave’s journey departed from this stop long ago.

nerdz

1001 albums finally named a woman for a dollar

I mean id rather listen to this than join the us army

anything's a 5 star compared to german electronic shart

music like this is what happens when the unemployment rate is too high (it was around 8-9% in 1996, Wales). Keep people employed so we don't have to listen to this garbage.

2 dark 4 me

if u don't think about latrice royale vs lil kenya michaels when you make me feel like (a natural woman) comes on, ur 2 str8 4 me works cited: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t8M4nPxhfI

one direction could've done the same thing but with a prettier album cover. someone left the band early? check. tragically dead band member? checkmate.

ON A SATURDAY NIGHT

I read the top review, about the guy doin drugs and fucking a frog or something like that, and knew I needed to invite friends over to get stoned and listen. Did not disappoint. Will never listen again though.

I clicked on the profile of someone who rated this album 1 star to see if they were clearly mentally unwell. They seemed cool. I'm just judgmental.

lovely, gorg-iana, icon, straight up cunt, BE-YOU-tiful, Linda Evangelista, real eyes realize real lies, intel core processor, salty salty crocodile tears yum yum yum in my tum.

2 long and that's coming from someone who listened to Ella Fitzgerald's 3-hour album yesterday. I hav e soft spot for soft bois tho

This happened and I was there and I would return to this again

How ya gonna say this sounds the same but the hundreds of brit-pop albums don't?????

"A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest And a queer threw up at the sight of that" Everytime I see a Bowie album, I think "fuck yes I love Bowie" then I listen to it and remember that I don't actually love Bowie, but I want to because of lyrics like the above lyric. Sometimes he's just annoying though :/

love wins :-)

I fully agree with all of the one star reviews. 4 stars though.

Kinda like getting finger blasted while watching the latest marvel movie. It means nothing to me, but I'm still having enough fun.

slay mama

this put me in heat

I think about all the teenage girls who waited for this album to drop and then listened to it for the first time with their best judies...... group listening parties are so missing from the culture rn

y'all really dug up their graves and shot their bones for fun with these reviews

delightful and I'm glad I got to hear it

murder-suicide was #justified by this album

I actually enjoyed this, which tells me I should book an appointment with my therapist

he’s too cool for me tbh

this album cured my g.i. issues

I played this a couple of notches too loud on a rainy Friday with the lights in my office dimmed and the part that brought me joy was students raising their voice to talk to me and then me whispering my nonsensical answers back to them while sipping my coffee. Jokes on them, I took an edible before work and my answer was always gonna be nonsense.

maybe it's the ear infection talking, but I kinda liked this

i love urethra

this guy does drugs

I outgrew this vibe and can't get myself to go back :/

I'm sipping that hatorade with this one

I prefer my ACAB with less hate for women and other marginalized groups. Fuck all police and ice tho

I'm so sick of these doors

it's like a cup of coffee from a diner, it's good enough.

If you like chewing gravel, you'll love Pavement

im listenin

This was more fun than I normally have with this genre of dirt

makes me wanna roll up in a blanket and smoke a fat doobie

4/5 would listen in my car

Shout out to the reviewer who thought this was French music, I hope life treats you well but that you never vote.

I fell asleep at my desk :(

the ideal

a bitch named dusty

one strange bitch!!!!

I love the politically charged messages, but don't love the sound :/ I'm just not punk ig

I like it for other people =)

I listen to the song Le Freak when I vote

Every time I hear Joy Division, I wonder if they ever considered making good music

Everything about this album was up my alley except the music ://

I feel like I was lured into this broad's basement where she handcuffed me to a radiator and made me listen to her band. By the end I was a little turned on

makes me wanna go to prison :/

F U N

:(

where's the freak?????

makes me wanna dance in leg warmers

I think I overpromised myself how much I was gonna like this album and it undersold my internal promise. Extra point for my prior expectations getting in the way of simply enjoy myself #TherapyWorks

where's my skin shoes

I got a lil lost in hyperspace :/

the kind of album that plays in the background at a white people bbq joint

makes me wanna do drugs

fuck the eagles

I dated a few Brazilians in my day and by dated I mean I was a slut

when I was young I was mad at my brother for taking the last bowl of cereal after I claimed it so I took a chopstick, stuck it in fresh dog poop, and then put it in his bowl so he couldn't have any either. it was really fucked up of me. I would eat that bowl before listening to this again though.

bad album generator, naughty!!!!!!!

minus one point to my personality for not liking this album :/

I'm sorry to all my fan out there, but I don't like :(

inoffensive, but also unimpressive

this album showed me first-hand how white boys appropriated the word groove for their shite music...I was expecting something actually groovy

I need an album to speak to me again,..,,..it's been so long

sounds like a sexy and illiterate working class man. would smash. Adding an extra point so Devendra notices me. If you see this Devendra, you can take my anal virginity please call me my phone is (608) 769-4621

wasn't dookie, but was obviously dookie

tre ord. no thank u

Courtney love could kill me and frame it as an overdose any day

I respect knowing your place enough to make your album 20 minutes long

those herbs could use a lil lemon and salt but I don't really mind bland

I like my music like I like my chicken: bland & unseasoned

I want to like his voice so bad but he reminds me too much of RuPaul :/

I see why this album deserves 5 stars. 3 stars

this inspired wii music

I always thought The Beach Boys were gonna be hotter tb h

learning bowie was alive and making music in 2016 feels as weird as learning Dali only died in '89...I'm sick to my stomach

some people just know how to have fun

feels like the soundtrack in a queer 80's film

The streaming service that I use that's definitely legal suggested Steely Dan after I finished this album and I much preferred that

I have to be in the right mood for Cohen....I'm just not in that mood rn :/

as a cis-man I cannot get pregnant, but this album makes me wanna try

protest art turns me on

not for me, but I respect the 15 minute album so much that I'm giving them an extra point, so punk

if this were put at the beginning of the list, I would've given it a 5 hands down....after listening to so many great albums, I'm not sure it actually deserves all the 5's it gets though :/

I just can't get behind this idk man

Much like, a sexy conspiracy theorist, I would’ve liked it more if they would’ve kept their damn mouth shut.

I went from unenthused to vomiting

the dreams I had when I fell asleep listening to this were my rock bottom

The kind of album people pretend to like

Did I like this? I asked myself as I listened to it a third time.

I wish I were more punk also I just noticed that I had an unnecessary comma in a review from a few weeks ago so in honor of this punk album im making this review a complex sentence without ANY commas to make up for my IDIOCY anyways im not punk enough for this kind of music but i fear the people who listen to this too much to give it a 1 star so 2 stars

Bland and corny but I had more fun than I thought I would :)

I'm editing my review to add this fun story: when I was a child I heard the song Take Me Out while I was sleeping at a cousin's house and woke up wanting to remember it so bad bc it was unlike anything I was allowed to listen to in my deeply catholic family. we used to get these lists of new songs, movies, books, etc that we were allowed or not allowed to listen to every week at church, so the media I consumed until about middle school was very limited. by the time we left the church and I started being allowed to listen to popular music, I had forgotten the lyrics and the beat of Take Me Out and was never able to find this song. I have a memory or two of turning on the radio and this song was ending but the dj must've announced the song before playing it bc they didn't announce it after, instead it went right into the next song. It's honestly haunted me for almost two decades trying to figure out what that song was. I finally figured it out listening to this album for 1001 albums and I've since been playing this song A LOT. It's not that I think it's the greatest song ever or anything, it's more just the feeling of solving a mystery that's lasted almost 20 years that I associated heavily with my religious upbringing. Thank you 1001 albums. Fuck the Catholic Church, please donate to your nearest independent abortion clinic, the Midwest Access Coalition, or your nearest small LGBTQ+ resource center.

this put me to shleep :/

This just feels like the earlier part of the 90's, which I don't remember because I wasn't alive yet you old fucks

I'll be brave and say what we're all thinking.....we got the beat reminds me of jimmy neutron

The best part of this album is knowing both McCarthy and Reagan are rotting in the ground where they belong.

I'd rather be one of the 22 victims at Ariana Grande's concert bombing than listen to this again

this made me wish I had decided to purchase ariana grande concert tickets on may 22nd, 2017 in manchester, england

when I was in middle school I took one guitar lesson and when I didn't sound like this I cried and quit

albums like this make me wish I were more grunge

Incredible voice but only decent lyrics and storytelling. It's better than her other album on this list though!

Mid music, but good politics. Paul Weller, on the Israeli Government's Genocide in Gaza: "Am I against genocides and ethnic cleansing? Yes, I am, funnily enough, I can't understand why more people aren't up in arms about what's going on. We should be ashamed of ourselves, I think. One minute you're supplying bullets and bombs and guns, and then you're sending over food. How does that work?"

a lesson on having fun

makes me wanna get shaggy bangs

I love a man with working fingers

it brings out the same sensory response in me as that pandemic-era hand sanitizer that vaguely smelled like bad tequila. It's cleansing and got me drunk, name something else that can do that

it's so hard not to listen to the eagles and think about their MAGA fanbase

im tired of this, grampa

do you ever meet someone and think wow i bet you have cool parents, can you introduce me to your parents?? that's me with this album. I want to see songs that sampled this album, but this album could die in a ditch and I wouldn't care.

shaken my ass to who knows what he said!!!

I just love funk :0

why did I not know the Grateful Dead had albums??? I just thought they improvised all of their songs at concerts???

horrible birthday album tho

I do love a banjo

I like my heads like I like my friends: capable of talking

I like Norah jones but a full album of her slow ass music makes me want to kill myself

his voice equally turns me on and pisses me off...like day drinking

remember kids, you don't have to listen to shit music to fit in

suicidal but sexy

when I stare a long time at this album cover it reminds me that the Beatles are just some white guys off the street and that most people only like them because they're told to like them

Bowie's music always sounds like the soundtrack to an animated adventure film to me

albums like this remind me to be less judgmental because I have bad taste in music and men

this is the kind of music that would play in the background while I work a grungy retail job in a touristy small town

would listen to this for a gurl

and in addition, I love the album cover art

why did I think the foo fighters were gonna be really good????

I was really hoping for a good halloween song on this album :'(

I feel like I just got punched in the dick

permission to land?? u gone need permission 2 get the fuck on outta my face first

derry girls never should have ended

Makes me feel like a woman (I’m a man)

I know I'm supposed to like the dead guy's music, but I'm on a streak of dishonoring suicide victims this year

she really shmeared her pussy on this album

I understand why this has it's place on this list, but I can't stop thinking about how this British band just named themselves Japan

I love boring music :)

Nirvana wasn't that good, he just did a lot of drugs. Well me too, bitch

this makes me feel like I'm the getaway driver for a white collar crime??? (derogatory)

good music, bad racist :/

it's not bad, but a white man naming himself buffalo makes me lol

I hate to say this after all of my 1 star reviews for Radiohead, but I didn't hate this album

I had fun :)

This is really gooey

in my mind, this was a horror movie

I actually quite enjoyed some of this until I started not to

I can't stop thinking about the reviewer who said this album reminds him of Mumford and sons

I love a freaky mf

the perfect album to play at my funeral, because I'll be dead and won't have to listen to this junk

hard to shake your ass to nick cave's dead son but whatever

I put off this album for so long because I got Kid Rock and Willie Nelson mixed up in my head. This certainly isn't Kid Rock

pretty fun, but Eric Clapton's still a racist pos

was this written by Jim jones because I'm sipping this flavor aid

is this Fleetwood Mac's grandparents ?????

fuck this bussy with your tunes, mama

I had to listen to this album 3 times because I kept forgetting I was listening to it. By the third time I was kinda liking it. I should be ashamed at how unfairly I've rated similar albums on this list. I'm not though.

Fuck the Police but I liked this album :-)

I'm under qualified to describe this but the bounciness of 90's rap and the clear and concise bars make the listening experience very fun and nostalgic. Also very relevant politics

good montage music

if I have to listen to punk, it had better be punk women

listening to this was like rolling stones up a hill. tiresome and to what end??? definitely not worth having an entire magazine named after your band

I do love drama

I just feel like this list is a lot of the same stuff and it’s starting to feel uninspired

felt like I was in a haunted house

I don't understand the name Def Leppard and I don't care to look it up but this pissed my pants

This album made me sad and not in a hot sexy depressed girlfriend,, will-she-won't-she-kill-herself kind of way

I love listening to music that makes you feel like you're in a basement half paying attention to the music and half covering your drink

This cured my scoliosis

I hate doing this, but it's the rules. Plus one for the shout out to Wisconsin in Around the World.

tastes like rusty cum is a wild thing to say, shame on your entire family

the best part about this album is the strays Radiohead caught in the reviews

I wanna shake some ass to this

when I lived in a hipster neighborhood for a year, I used to go to this hipster coffee shop down the street from me to study. I vividly remember sitting there studying while this grown woman set up her dolls and played with them on the table of a half-empty coffee shop with mismatched furniture and a barista who flicked her bean to correcting my pronunciation. Anyways I think this was playing on repeat. I sucked dick in that coffee shop once.

lil SIM card could tap my phone again this was fun

probably the kind of music playing in the home of a couple who met hitchhiking to a Grateful Dead concert

One time I was blitzed at a bar in one of the Carolinas and I told this blondie that I was the drummer to ZZ Top and she fully believed me. Spent the rest of the night hitting on her mom and pretending to play the air drums

I love a story that's not morally black & white. The gray area is always so much more interesting

played this at work in a shared office and walked away. Came back to Liz singing about wanting to be someone's blowjob queen and fucking him until his dick turned blue. Same here, girl

I love how many people compared them to the smiths, because I don't really care about either

I'd give a man a handjob with one hand while doom scrolling with my other hand to this album I think

opening with a protest song will get me anytime, but starting off with three political songs on the topics of military occupations, authoritarianism, nuclear warfare, and the slaughter of innocent civilians helped make this album captivating

SO GOOD

this album was horrible and I hated it but somehow I left the experience impressed and respecting the bit

As a Bowie hater....I had a lot of fun and maybe shouldn't have pissed on this dead man's grave as much as I have....save a lil piss for the freaks in berlin, Bowie's tellin me

I tried, but I just found it painfully average :/

I'm not usually cool enough to understand punk, but I felt in on the spirit of the album this time

insufferable, someone please shoot me in the face with a gun

I know that I should like Kate Bush, but I just can’t stand some of the terrible background noises.

I've gotta take issue with the number of reviews that think this album is about sex rather than about love. Yes, there are songs about sex, but the racist caricature disguised as a review: “Uhhh kissing you, kissing me, squeezing yo butt cheeks, Putin’ my bologna pony in yo minestrone, talking’ ‘bout sex whooo whooo” is built on a history of white folks over sexualizing the black man. D'Angelo spends most of the album talking about his love for his girl, and only two of the songs were explicit - one was sexual, but the other was about his girl cheating on him with his best friend- so if you left thinking this album was overly sexual, that's on your racist imagination for over-sexualizing a black man's love.

Possibly the first British band I’ve liked, but I can’t define why….i need to be better :( this band encourages me not to though :)

So not up my alley but this was one of the first non-Christian or country albums I was allowed to listen to for some reason??? Brings back a lot of memories. We were only allowed to listen to Boulevard of broken dreams and holiday though I’m pretty sure we had gotten a karaoke machine for Christmas one year and those two songs were both on it, which is why we are allowed to listen. The only other song I remember being on that karaoke machine was toxic by Britney Spears when I was alone, I would rock out to toxic, but when my family was around, I had to pretend to be more of a Green Day guy.

Listened to this while driving in the car and honestly it made me want to skip the party and just keep driving

This held me from behind without getting a boner

Damn bitch keeps it real

I'm not a car person either, so I'm not mad :)

Makes me wonder how much it would cost to commission Morissette to write and record an album about your own ex

the sound of musical colonization

this is the musical version of bringing an ugly man home from the bar and letting him hit it from behind so you can pretend he's hotter than he is

One reviewer described this album as walking down the aisle of the supermarket that has dog food and baby food and I can't stop thinking about how true that is except I'm a judgmental cunt about it

I had fun feeling like my parents listening to this, but I gotta say this decade is getting tired and as a society we gotta sit ourselves down and be honest that 80’s music just isn’t that good

I find Jack White a little insufferable and I’m not surprised 9/11 happened two months after its release

Kurtie kept sayin “no I don’t have a gun” and all I could think about is….yeah you did????

Okay this was a nice lil surprise :-)

The kind of album I could slow dance to with a lover

the organ was interesting to drink my morning coffee to. Hanging Around got old really fast, but then it became a vibe somehow.

the virtue signaling in the reviews pushed me to really try to listen with an open mind. Still not my vibe though
