1001 Albums Summary

Not a big Coldplay fan but this album was better than I thought it would be. There were a couple of songs I recognised but most were new to me. None saved to listen to again.

The songs were all so so long. Heart of the sunrise was my standout, loved the last minute or so. Already had Roundabout saved, no new songs saved.

I don't really like Radiohead. I just don't like the singer and some of the songs on this album made me feel almost a bit tense. No songs saved to listen to later.

Starts really strong and manages to keep up the pace all through the album. Absolutism love it. Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is definitely my favourite, with When I'm Sixty-four coming in second. Three songs saved to listen to again.

Really liked it. Saved three songs.

Pretty good Christmas album. I was a little late in getting to it (and I'm also in Australia so I think it was a day late) so I'm a bit over it, but there are some good classic Christmas songs on there.

Not really my thing. Felt a bit too old for my tastes. None saved to listen to again.

Didn't mind this one. Not too much singing, just vibes.

I think I gave this a fair chance, I didn't listen to the last couple of songs but judging by how much I hated the rest of the songs on this album I really can't imagine they would've saved it for me. I just hated this album so much.

Some songs i liked, some i didn't. Saved one to listen to in future.

Not my favourite but I didn't hate this. I do wish the entire album was more like the b sides. So many of the other's were just so one note and boring.

Yeah I just really don't enjoy Prince.

I didn't mind some of the songs but probably wouldn't listen to it again.

I didn't hate this, it's just boring. On Hold was already in my rotation, no additional songs to listen to later.

Don't mind a couple of the songs (Black Skinhead) but some of the lyrics made me so uncomfortable (I'm In It was so gross). There's also much autotune and i wasn't a huge fan of some of the experimental elements or sampling.

I actually found myself kind of enjoying this album. I like it a lot better than Yeezus. I enjoyed All Falls Down, Spaceship, Jesus Walks, and Never Let Me Down. Kanye really does make some very interesting music. It's not 100% my thing but I can appreciate it. It's a shame he's such an awful person.

I'm not sure how I feel about this album. I didn't hate it but it's a bit too old man rock for my tastes.

40 minutes of noise. Made me anxious. Hated it.

Either a 2 or a 3. The music is good, I just really prefer songs with lyrics. I also prefer shorter songs. 12 minutes really is too long for one song.

Really enjoyed this one. Dont think it was quite perfect but a very enjoyable experience nonetheless. 4 songs saved to listen to again + London Calling which was already on my list.

I listened to this yesterday and I really can't remember a single song on it. Didn't love it, didn't hate it. It gets a 2.5.

Really not a fan of the vocals or the intense, dour music

A little over the top at times but I'd listen to this one again.

Didn't mind this but not quite my thing

After reading the other reviews I was expecting something pretty terrible, but Kollaps actually wasn't that bad. Would I listen to it again? No, probably not. Was it a completely joyless experience? No, not really. Most of it is just noise. Some of it was quite unpleasant. I'm sure one of the songs straight up sampled a drill. Sometimes I flinched. But the album really wasnt the worst thing I've ever heard.

Really didn't like this. It was too slow and whiny for me. Best song was Shakedown on 9th Street but it sounds like it's from a totally different album.

I didn't mind this. It's a bit too much for my tastes sometimes but when it's good, it's good.

I did not like this at all

I was bored. Karma Police is a good song, I wouldn't listen to the rest of the album again.

There are some good songs on here but they're all like 30 seconds too long.

Just instrumentals

I just don't like Billy Corgan's voice. I think I'd love this of someone else sang it.

Stand outs: Life in Tokyo, Quiet Life.

I enjoyed the first 9 songs, but after that I was pretty keen for it to be over. I don't enjoy instrumentals too much and they also got a bit too intense and moody.

I think I liked this more than Yeezus and less than the College Dropout. So many long songs and the language once again bothered me, "Yeezy reupholstered my pussy." How can anyone listen to that line without embarassment?

Pretty generic 80s songs.

Usually don't like live albums, but this one really had me wishing I was there watching it live.

I half enjoyed this. Some of the songs were a bit grating.

I really like Invisible Touch (the song, haven't listened to the whole album), so i thought I'd really like Genesis. I am now realising it was stupid to think I'd enjoy a band Street hearing one song. I didn't really enjoy this album. There were a few songs that i liked, but I didn't enjoy most of them. I have also generally struggled with longer albums and this is definitely a long one at 1.5hrs. I was enjoying disc 2 more than disc 1 but then it just became instrumentals.

This was a bit all over the place for me. Hated Nebraska, liked Atlantic City, disliked Mansion on the hill, rinse and repeat...

Really not into instrumentals but this is pretty solid background music.

This didn't sit quite right with me. It feels really depressing but also sweet at the same time?

So good I listened to it twice in a row. Loved Blueberry Hill, Going Home and Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

I was certain this would be a one but it kind of grew on me. I even mostly enjoyed AB/7A. I'd recommend reading up a little on the band and band members, they're interesting people and some are still making music today in theirs 70s.

I know Elvis Presley already so I knew I'd enjoy this album. I don't love his covers though. Ray Charles and Little Richard do I've Got a Woman and Tutti Frutti a million times better than Elvis does.

This really grew on me. The samples are great. The lyrics are sometimes cringeworthy but fun. But I don't think I'd listen to this again.

Generally not a fan of hip hop music but the rhythms on this one are fun, would be good background music if I'm ever in the right mood.

Didn't think I'd enjoy this as much as I did.

I like Toy Story, I did not like this.

Never been a Linkin Park fan but I really enjoyed this album.

There are some fantastic songs on this album (You're my Best Friend, Bohemian Rhapsody!!), but it's just gets dragged down by the bad songs. What even is I'm In Love With My Car??

Love love love the album art and love the songs.

Too much for me. Too loud and jarring.

Another fairly mediocre 80s album.

Superstition and I Believe are great songs but they just can't save this album. There rest of the tracks are just so boring.

I don't know about this one. I can't decide if I liked it, I can't really see myself listening to it very often. Painter of Women was pretty weird.

Hard to rate this one. I loved some of the songs and hated some others. My stand outs were Birds and Ships and Hoodoo Voodoo.

Not a fan of this. It just felt a bit too Dave Matthews Band for me. Only song I liked was Over the Hill.

This was great, very fun punky album.

I was enjoying it at first but it was just too long and it all felt too similar.

Elevator music. Glad this one was short.

Good album, some of the songs were quite strange though. Better listened to in one go, rather than listening to the songs separately.

Incredibly lame. "You're a outré risqué locomotive, driving me crazy."

Didn't like this as much as I thought i would. Take Me Out is great but overall the album felt quite dated and not very interesting.

I enjoyed the vibe of the album but a lot of the lyrics were quite juvenile. It also does feel a lot like a Snoop Dogg album, he's featured so heavily.

It's a Johnny Cash album. Nothing more to be said.

Yeah this was pretty crude.

Hate his voice.

Thought I would like this but it's just too much. Too over the top and a little annoying.

Too corny for me.

Liked this so much i finished listening and then started the album up from the beginning again.

This was pretty boring to me.

Definitely would've enjoyed this more without the vocals

Literally so boring.

This would've been improved with some ruthless editing.

Not really my thing- not a huge jazz fan, but the politics did feel fairly current.

I think this is the worst rap album I've listened to so far as part of this project. It felt like I was at a poetry reading or something. Overly pretentious and wordy.

I thought I'd really enjoy this album based on how much i love Cry to Me, but the other reviews are correct, the other songs on this album are just a bit lacking. My two standouts were Cry to Me and Someone to Love Me, i don't think I'd listen to this album again.

I wish he'd stop mumbling, its driving me crazy. Another album i thought I'd like more than I actually did.

I knew I remembered Basement Jaxx from somewhere and it took until I listened to Red Alert for me to place them. It was also the only song I really enjoyed on the album.

I was ok with the first few songs, they were reminding me a little of The Smiths, but then things got a little weird through the middle of the album and ultimately I was a little bored.

After over 200 albums I've finally found one i actually owned at some point in my life. This is a great album.

I understand why so many people love Dolly Parton now. This album was just gorgeous the whole way through.

I really have a hard time rating the Pogues. I don't really like their music but its oddly catchy.

I feel bad rating this poorly but I just don't like jazz.

This really has aged poorly. Don't think i would ever voluntarily choose to listen to this album.

Forgettable.

It was nice but difficult to listen to.

Really didn't need to hear this. He gives me slight Robbie Williams vibe - that cheesiness, but nowhere near as catchy as a Robbie Williams song.

Not my favourite Bowie album. Changes is great but the other songs didn't really appeal to me.

Thought I would hate this at first but it's actually not too bad, it's quite pleasant in the background. Favourite track was Unchained Melody.

I listened to a decent chunk of this. Some of the songs are really good, others are a little depressing. It's excessively long, they should have picked the ten or twenty best songs, made one or two albums and binned the rest.

It feels a little long at the start and the song names all feel very of that era, but it rounds out to be a great album. There's something very uplifting in Sufjan Stevens' melodies.

Not really for me. Most of the songs are nice background music but I didn't enjoy the vocals.

This list is making me like Elvis a whole lot less than I previously did. I like bluesy, rock n roll Elvis. I don't like Elvis the crooner. I did not enjoy this album.

I didn't mind this, very dark and moody.

A big album with an interesting concept but I don't think I'll ever choose to listen to it again.

Feels very 90s in a way that isn't appealing to me.

I find ska music to be a little jarring and annoying at times. This album definitely did initially trigger those feelings in me but it did grow on me. I think I would listen to some of these songs again, but not the entire album.

Too intense for me

I didn't mind this. Its co.pletely unfamiliar to me but almost meditative. I don't think I'd choose to listen to it independently, but I'll definitely tune in when I want some focus music.

Sympathy for the Devil is a great song, the rest of the album kinda sucks though.

Such a powerful album, but the misogyny kind of ruins it for me.

No idea what she's saying but its gorgeous nonetheless.

Never listened to a Bjork album before and clearly I've been missing out.
