1001 Albums Summary

An eclectic mix of quirky songs. The album has a generally uplifting feel. I wasn’t bored or waiting for the album to finish. The album doesn’t immediately excite me but it does feel very original and fresh so I will probably listen to it again. I like the lyrics, so I might try to memorise them.

My kind of music. Lots of ambient soundscapes. I recognise the chorus of the 2nd song, Svedberg-g-englar. I quite like the 4th song Flugufrelsarinn and 6th Hjarto hamast I really like the 7th, Viorar vel til loftarasa I quite like the 8th and 9th song I would listen to again

Quite rocking. I like. The instrumentals are a bit Hendrix. Amusing lyrics.

Easy listening rock with some light synth sounds sprinkled within. Highly boring and lame. Not a single song stood out to me. More synth sounds would have made the album a bit edgier. I doubt I will listen to the album again.

Although I recognise why people like Redding, unfortunately, I don’t like his style. I find his singing and the RnB music a bit boring.

I find Cohen’s voice uniquely boring. It barely feels like he is singing. Most of the songs on this album were an old fashioned mix of RnB and gospel instrumentals. The only song that was somewhat interesting was Steer Your Way, it has a country style violin that drives pace throughout the song. I would not listen to this again.

Generally fun hard rock album but a bit generic. The overtly sexual lyrics of some of the songs were probably shocking at the time but come across a bit teenage boy nowadays. There wasn’t any songs that stood out.

Like a lot of old hip hop, the lyrics are all bit dated on some songs. Too much lyrics about how cool the artist. Still can’t deny how good the album sounds though.

Quirky mix of rocky songs. Fun to listen to.

Apparently part of the noise rock scene of New York. If I didn’t know the year of release I probably would have assumed it was an indie album from the 90s. Kind of cool but no songs stood out. I’d give it another shot.
