Heard some songs from it before. And as somebody who was really into 90s British music when I was a teen I can just TELL that the author of this list must've been a teen/young adult in the 90s in the UK because there's no other explanation for why somebody would think this album a must-listen for everybody around the world. The tracks I like from it I do like, but as a whole it isn't exceptional in any way. 2/5

Heard it before a million times. ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER. Peter Gabriel's voice is like a hug when you're sad. There's not a single bad song on this album. I love it so much. 5/5

Haven't heard of this before. A Serbian man making Brazillian music on paper sounds fascinating and I wish I liked it but it's so deeply mediocre. 2/5

Heard it before. Listening to this album is always a pleasure 4/5

It's alright, nothing revolutionary. It feels no different from other similar artists from the same era. Actually, the other artists were doing it way better. Doesn't really feel like an album that is a must listen. 2/5

Haven't heard of them before (I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to hip hop) so I had no expectations for this one. I was pleasantly surprised! Really good instrumentals and the rap had a nice flow (will read the lyrics later, my non-native ears are bad at understanding rap in English). It was fun to hear Nelly Furtado on one song too. My only complaint is that the album is a bit too long, it could've been 5 songs shorter. 3/5

Heard it before. Tiny Dancer is an absolute classic and makes me emotional, one of my favourite songs by Elton. The title track is another highlight of the album. Overall a nice album. 3/5

I've heard of The Flaming Lips before but never checked them out. Let's just say after this album I will need another 20+ years to listen to them again. I like indie/alternative but this album is an example of alt rock that I hate. No interesting melodies, no interesting moments, the album dragged on and I was already waiting for it to end after the 3rd song. 1/5

I've only heard one song from this album before (you can guess which one) so I knew what sort of vibe it will have. The album was alright but also nothing stood out to me. Didn't have a bad time listening to it though, so I can't say it was bad. Just not spectacular. 2/5

According to my Last.fm stats I've heard the first song from this album some time ago but it was my first time listening to the album in full. While I do enjoy the general vibe the album failed to make me pay attention to individual songs, they kind of blended together for me and started sounding samey after a while. I get that it's an important and influential album but it's... just not for me. 2/5

Nothing but respect for Stevie but most of the albums generated for me thus far have been rather slow paced and this is yet another one. At least the instrumentals are interesting in this one and there's a bigger variety between songs. Not really good for a rainy lazy day like today though, I need something more energetic. 2/5

Heard it before. The Asphalt World used to be my song to look at the wall and be sad to. This Hollywood Life is another track I love. The overall mood of the album is quite gloomy but I think I like it better than their first album. Feeling generous today so I'm giving it 4/5

The generator is generating a lot of hip hop albums for me for some reason. I've heard some 2pac tracks before but this is my first time listening to a full album. Eh, sorry but not my thing. I think I'm coming to the realization that I'm a music over lyrics person and hip hop is a genre where lyrics are the main and most important part. So that means I just don't really care about any particular track on this album because I just don't pay attention to any lyrics when the instrumentals are quite samey. 2/5

Heard it before and don't remember liking it. Elvis Costello is just so lame to me I can't force myself to like him. I keep forgetting he's from the UK so listening to him I feel as if I'm listening to an American doing an imitation of British rock from the 70s. The vibes are just off. Allegedly the 1001 list has a bunch of his albums and I don't think I'm gonna survive this. 1/5

Heard it before, multiple times. One of the best trip hop albums ever, the vibe is unmatched. Period. 5/5

I'm pretty sure I must've heard this album before because my dad is a fan. Meh? It's not the most terrible thing I've ever heard but their signature sound makes all the songs sound the same basically. And I just don't like AC/DC in general. 2/5

Heard some songs from it before. And as somebody who was really into 90s British music when I was a teen I can just TELL that the author of this list must've been a teen/young adult in the 90s in the UK because there's no other explanation for why somebody would think this album a must-listen for everybody around the world. The tracks I like from it I do like, but as a whole it isn't exceptional in any way. 2/5

This is my punishment for saying that all Rolling Stones tracks sound like nothing to me yesterday. This album doesn't help. The songs are fine but I still have no idea how people recognize that it's The Stones before Mick starts singing. I feel like I could've heard the same songs on different artists' albums. What a nothingburger. 2/5

Oh, late 80s rap is not my thing I guess. This type of beat and flow just feels a bit silly to me. 1/5

Heard it before a million times. ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER. Peter Gabriel's voice is like a hug when you're sad. There's not a single bad song on this album. I love it so much. 5/5

Never heard of them and for a good reason it seems. On principle I'm skeptical of American bands from the 70s that are called punk because I think The Ramones are one of the most embarrassing bands ever. This band here? About as proto-punk as Cher whose cover is on this album for god knows what reason. The Stooges were 10 times more proto-punk 6 years earlier. The Dictators clearly haven't heard of them. 1/5

Heard it before. It's a fine album but once again hard to call it an essential album to listen to when they weren't even one of the major bands during the britpop era. But all that aside it's still quite ok. 3/5

Never heard of them. I was a bit scared when I saw that on Spotify most songs from this album have under 100k streams but I didn't have a terrible time listening to this. Doesn't sound like a groundbreaking album but I needed some calming music so that's nice. Giving it a generous score. 3/5

Heard it before. The first album where they tried dropping their goofy britpop shtick (but still some songs are goofy-ish). What can I say, I have some nostalgia for Blur. 13 is better though. 4/5

Heard it before. Not my favourite R.E.M. album but it's R.E.M. so I cannot say a bad thing about them, it's still a good album. 3/5

Heard it before. Not massively into Kendrick but this album is the best I've heard from him I think. The instrumentals on this one are interesting, especially Wesley's Theory. But the album is toooo loooong. 3/5

Heard other Chemical Brothers albums before and sadly this one lacks something. Or maybe it's just because I'm in a different mood today. But there are no real bangers on the album. 2/5

First time listening to a full album of their original material (heard Pictures at an Exhibition before). The first prog track was a bit lacklustre but the other songs were quite fun. I'm generous so let's give them 3/5

Heard it before. First two Oasis albums are really solid. But I think I like Morning Glory more than Definitely Maybe. Still, some great songs on this one and a nice time. 4/5

Haven't heard of them before. A really chill album, even too chill I'd say. Good as background music but not much else 2/5

When it comes to Motorhead I probably only know Ace of Spades. I didn't know what to expect from a live album but this album was a surprise. It was enjoyable, even if none of the songs made a strong impression on me. Bonus points for having a song titled Capricorn (RIP Lemmy, a fellow Cap). 3/5

Heard two songs from it before. What a nice album, equally chill but also making me want to dance. 3/5

SO I REMEMBER WHEN WE WERE DRIVING, DRIVING IN YOUR CAR SPEED SO FAST IT FELT LIKE I WAS DRUNK CITY LIGHTS LAY OUT BEFORE US AND YOUR ARM FELT NICE WRAPPED 'ROUND MY SHOULDER AND I-I HAD A FEELING THAT I BELONGED I-I HAD A FEELING I COULD BE SOMEONE (Heard it before. Wonderful album. 4/5)

Haven't heard of this before. A chill, background music-esque album about nuclear weapons doesn't seem appropriate to me. The concept of this album aside, purely musically it isn't interesting either. Actually after a while the sound of the album started to be annoying. Another strange pick from the author of the original book. 1/5

I've heard some Adam Ant songs before but never a full album. For some reason I've always thought he's goofy and kinda avoided him. But the album is quite alright, cannot say no to 80s music. 3/5

Heard it before. I think I need to preface it by saying that I don't like U2 except for a couple of songs. The most popular songs from this album, With Or Without You especially, are aaaawfuuul. On the other hand Bullet The Blue Sky is a MASSIVE banger. I don't think I will ever become a fan of U2 but at the same time I don't hate the album? It's hard to articulate my feelings. 3/5

Heard a different Fatboy Slim album before and my conclusion is that I don't like his style. His biggest hits are really good but everything else is just kinda meh? It's not terrible, just not memorable 2/5

Heard it before. I know it's regarded as one of Beatles's best albums (or even the best album) but... I will be real with you I never understood it. It might be where they started experimenting with different things but I don't vibe with it. It still has great songs though 3/5

Probably heard it before because my dad is a fan. This is the 2nd AC/DC album I got from the generator and honestly wouldn't be able to tell them apart. Their signature sound really makes everything sound the same. 2/5

Only heard two most recent Taylor albums in full but never this one except for the singles. The title of the album is so funny considering how 2014 it sounds (and looks when it comes to the album cover). This particular brand of pop music is not something I like, it just sounds so juvenile. I don't want it to look like I hate the album just because it's Taylor (hell, I thought Midnights was an OK album) but she really just doesn't make music that appeals to me in any way 1/5

Only heard their most popular singles so it was funny listening to their first album that has a different sound. Don't know if I'm a fan of this sound tho, just your regular boring garage rock revival. Molly's Chambers sounds almost exactly like Dress by PJ Harvey, she should sue. Hardly a revolutionary or original album. 1/5

Heard it before. In general it's not my vibe but I can appreciate the calmness of the album 2/5

Only heard some Dr. Dre hits before. What I'm finding out from my listening journey is that g-funk is not my thing. Like, totally not my thing. Not a single song on this album that I even vaguely enjoyed. 1/5

Heard it before. Not my favourite Elliott album, I think I prefer him without a band. But it's a nice album anyway. 3/5

Heard it before. I think it's one of the more accessible prog albums, the tracks are really dynamic and interesting. 4/5

Obviously I've heard some Iron Maiden songs before but never a full album. A solid metal album, what can I say 3/5

According to my lastfm stats I've heard one song from this album before but I genuinely don't remember it and was dead sure I don't know them. Well, after listening to the album I can say I didn't miss out on much. Not awful but also there was nothing truly interesting on the album either. 2/5

Heard it before god knows how many times. For nostalgic reasons Nirvana has a very calming effect on me. Make them play acoustic and now it's extreme calmness to me. I love everything about this album. Surprisingly the songs I like the most on this album are the Meat Puppets covers, they just work so well. 5/5

Heard of the band but haven't listened to their music (although according to lastfm I listened to one song from the album aaages ago). This album is so messy and not in a good way. As we say in Polish, every song "is from a different parish". It just sounds so... random and has way too many tracks. And it's not a type of punk I enjoy. The only surprising thing from this album is the Jackass intro song?? I had no idea it's their song 1/5

Heard of her but never heard her music. It sounds like something they'd play as background music at a cafe which in general is not good. But I'm single on Valentine's Day so this jazzy sad music works for me today. Still, not something I'd listen to often really 2/5

Heard songs for it before. When it comes to the genre that's one of the more quality bands. But (bestie don't kill me) I'm not a big fan of the genre. Giving it a good score because the album does sound nice. 3/5

Heard a different Steely Dan album before. With this one I'm conflicted. On the one hand no songs really stood out to me. On the other I kinda liked the album? Something intriguing about it 3/5

Heard it before. It's a really good album, honestly. One of those things you listen to when you need to chill. But I'd remove a couple of songs because it's a bittttt too long 3/5

Heard it before. Honestly seeing the release year is a little crazy, truly an influential album. That said, I don't have any strong feelings when it comes to the songs 2/5

Was dead sure I've heard some Orbital album before but turns out not. I was skeptical at first but turned out that it's quite an intriguing album. Some other electronic/instrumental albums that I got thus far were quite underwhelming but this one has this special something that I enjoyed 3/5

Heard a different Spiritualized album before. Surprisingly quite nice. Got a little bored towards the end but overall I enjoyed the album. 3/5

Heard it before. It's a sweet album but I prefer Back to Black 3/5

Haven't heard of the band before. Honestly, there are some quite interesting ideas on this album but ultimately not something I'd go back to or enjoy casually 2/5

Heard it before. Dang dong dang dong dang dong ding deng 4/5

Heard it before. A classic, it includes one of my favourite Bowie songs (Cracked Actor). 4/5

Only heard some singles before. Genuinely just not my thing but Dexter Holland is my birthday buddy so I cannot say a bad thing about him 2/5

Heard a different Cardigans album before in full (and of course I know Lovefool). What a coincidence, I was thinking about Nina Persson yesterday. The album is really lovely. The Iron Man cover took me by surprise, quite unexpected. 3/5

Heard it before. Just not my thing, honestly. It's boring prog to me 2/5

Heard some Sam Cooke songs before. What a sweet, heartwarming album 3/5

Heard some Curtis Mayfield songs before. Wow what a great album 4/5

Only heard Village Green in full before, and from this album Sunny Afternoon. Face to Face is a good album but I'm a Village Green girl 3/5

Only heard 2 songs from this album before. And honestly? It is quite a good album but a mixed bag. Graceland is miles better. 3/5

Heard of the band before but somehow never listened to them. Oh boy, this album is just background music. Literally nothing interesting or exciting going on musically 1/5

Heard some of Steve's songs before (thank you for your accidental contribution to electronic music). This album is quite boring though. It's like somebody tried recreating Peter Gabriel's music from memory 2/5

Haven't heard of her before. Can't say I know a lot about country but it was a pleasant album 2/5

Heard it before. Never thought of it as an essential Talking Heads album so it's a bit strange to see it on the list. But anyway, still quite a good album 3/5

Haven't heard of this before. A Serbian man making Brazillian music on paper sounds fascinating and I wish I liked it but it's so deeply mediocre. 2/5

Heard it before, in fact Bruce is smiling at me from a vinyl record on my shelf as I write this. One of the best albums of all time, the album that made me fall in love with Bruce's music. Each song is a spiritual experience 5/5

Heard some Temptations songs before. While I can tell it's a good, well made album it just was background music to me for some reason. I just couldn't pay attention to any of the tracks 2/5

Heard it before. Don't know how many of his albums are on the list (already got So before) but they're all gonna get a good score. Love you, Peter 4/5

Heard a different Talk Talk album before. They do have some nice songs but eh, this album doesn't really have any 2/5

Heard it before. T. Rex makes such sweet music, it puts me in a good mood and inevitably makes me think about Billy Elliot 3/5

Heard it before. I have a complicated relationship with Pixies because in theory it should be something I like. But I just don't. I think something about Black Francis' vocals pisses me off? The music is quality tho so I will still give it a good score 3/5

Heard it before. Sex Pistols wish they were X Ray Spex 3/5

Heard various James Brown songs before but never an album. Quite fun but at the same time nothing special 2/5

Heard it before. It's a charming little album. 3/5

Heard bits of it before. I do respect Jimi (fellow leftie) but this album just doesn't click for me 2/5

I heard some Kanye songs throughout my life. Decided to listen to a rip of this album on Youtube instead. I will be honest with you, I never understood why music bros put Kanye's albums on their best albums of all time lists. Listening to this one feels like this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SRiVWYrnNo Also, "I keep it 300 like the Romans"? They weren't even Romans 1/5

Heard it before. 80s synth masterclass. Sex Dwarf one of the songs of all time 5/5

Heard various Who songs here and there. I will be honest with you, after just 6 songs it felt as if I've been listening to the album for an hour. I'm just not interested in the concept of this concept album. 2/5

Heard some Heaven 17 songs before. I really like (We Don't Need This) Fascist Groove Thang from this album. But the rest is? Eh really unimpressive. 2/5

Haven't heard of this before. It's not bad but it's just background music. 2/5

Heard it before. Truly a classic 5/5

Heard of Jeff Beck before but for some reason never got round to listening to his music. The album didn't have any tracks that stood out to me but I appreciate the overall experience 3/5

Everything from Clapton that I've heard in my life was against my will. Including this album. He contributed maybe 2 original songs to the history of rock music and neither are on this album. He's like a background character nobody gives a damn about, I've never met an Eric Clapton fan. He's neither good at anything nor recognizable for anything in particular. This album is a good example of that. 1/5

Heard some songs from it before. Fun 80s music 3/5

Heard it before. Listening to this album is always a pleasure 4/5

Heard it before. It's a really nice album, if only it wasn't so long for no reason 3/5

Heard of this album but never listened to it. Worst kind of indie, after just 3 songs it felt like an hour. It did have one or two ok songs though 2/5

Somehow haven't heard a full Buddy Holly album before (though I do know some big hits). It's a really sweet and charming album 3/5

Heard it before. You can really feel Bowie on every single song of this album 3/5

Haven't heard this album by Neil before. I was pleasantly surprised, I didn't expect to like the album as much as I did 3/5
