A little screamy, but quite developed, different songs, it grows on you
As classic as David Bowie gets, fantastic, eccentric melodies
Beautiful, almost perfect, classic after classic
One of the most beautiful albums I've ever listened to, pure magic
So screamy, but it gets better by the end
MA's best album, great mood, so relaxing and captivating at the same time
Gentle country with a bit of rock
Pure class, what Sinatra was missing was that Brazillian touch
If I was into hip hop at all I'd be into that.
Punk... could've been worse
Smooth, little bluesy indie rock
Country, bluesy, psychodelic - very 60s!
Not my favourite Rolling Stones record, but very decent, like the bluesiness
Sweet ABBA, sweet childhood memories
CCR at its bluesiest? Still good stuff
Precursor of indie, bluesy and glam... not bad
Bluesy, melodic, guitar much better than the voice, quite charming actually
Realest, classic country... just lovely and charming
Monotonous club beats, all too long
Uneven, goes in many directions... fuzzy and balladic, very 90s brit pop
Quintessential 80s pop - infectious energy
As classic country as it gets... no surprises
Interesting experiments with electronic and pop music, tiring after a while
What can be written that hasn't been already.... music changing masterpiece, still fresh after all these years
Class, sophistication, soul - Stevie!
Punk... but still could've been worse
Classic, groundbreaking... Not really my style, but can't deny the quality
Powerful, if a little bit tiring by the end
Overlooked, my first thought "yay, another country". Offers so much more, classy, sublime, even a bit psychodelic
Solid jam, blues rock, not really my style, not really my song lenghts
What a classic... just wish it was one album instead of 2, quite a few fillers, Revolution #9 is certainly an experience
Unpolished, but still decent classic R.E.M.
Absolutely acoustic, with a wonderful voice of someone who lived a life. Moving, minimalistic approach to country with some nice storytelling. Just wish there was a little less of monotony
Oh Kanye, Kanye, Kanye, what can I do with you... liked some of the production, but way too long
Noisy & unpolished, surprisingly varied
Distinct style, cool beats, just hip hop is too monotonous for me
Solid modern rock, something I miss now
Rock opera! So cool, so different from what I knew The Who from
So raw and emotional, unfortunately not my style
Bluesy... Not my favourite style, but The Doors make it work, love "Indian Summer"
Beautiful, emotional, need more listens to truly fall in love
Can't pretend I like jazz
Cool sounds, motown + early funk, The Temptations branching out
Many shades of blues, thouroughly enjoyed
Not my favourite new romantic album, songs are a little too similar to each other, but I do love my new romantics, and last 2 songs were just perfect.
Just lovely, bringing joy to the new day
Frustratingly uneven, but highlights are awesome
Worse than I remember, surprisingly prefer softer LP
All killer no filler - bluesy rock'n'roll
Experimental, difficult, minimalist, raw... Bjork is definitely not for everyone, I like her other albums more.
Subtle, magical... not masterpiece like "Pink Moon", but very, very good
It's just cool, poppy, varied, without losing alternative edge, with this unmistakeable voice
So awesome... making 80s cool, somewhere between post punk new wave and new romantic.
Theatrical, not to listen to too many times, but impressive
Fantastic, moving, simplicity in vocals
Definitely a surprise, pop punk album full of reggae & ska flavours. Quite uneven
Bluesy rock'n'roll, not feeling it
Talking Heads' magnum opus. No one does weird pop like David Byrne.
Jazzy soul, a little bit waiting room vibe, but nice, vibes and unexpected sounds. Wish there was more vocals.
Never knew ska could be that varied, really liked it
It's indie rock'n'roll for me, it's all I need
Trip hop perfection with rock touches, taking you on a musical journey
Decent 60s rock with other unexpected influences
Starts as simple reggae, ends up as something more...
Sound of the 60s, legendary
House, 2step... not my style
Aggressive rap, could've been worse
Hate Morrissey all you want, but this is perfection
Unpolished but somehow melodic, a classic
Almost perfect, classic upon classic, one of the best songs of all time finishing the album
Beautiful, kinda nostalgic sophisto pop
Cool, 50s lush sound, wish for just a little more variety
Not my favourite version of Beck, unpolished blend of genres, but I can't deny it works
Kanye's magnum opus, for better or worse
I guess I got used to heavier sounds, I like it much more now than I used to
Just no... Too much tuneless noise
Fine reggea, not much to add
When Rolling Stones were still fighting The Beatles... good stuff
Overlooked David Bowie, going into more artsy directions, varied, good music
Alternative country with licks of rock'n'roll, really nice, little tiring by the end
Pop, rock, early indie, melodic, fuzzy and very British, I like it a lot
How not to be cliche... perfection, masterpiece, timeless. I guess I was supposed to get it right after Brian Wilson's death...
Funky funky... wish the songs (besides The Known One) were catchier
As classic rock as it gets... the heaviest music I can stand, even feel like headbanging
Love me some good 60's baroque pop
Classic moody heaviness with melodies and Ozzy's characteric vocals, liked it a lot even if it would never be my first pick
Wordless, nostalgic, electronic, very captivating sound
Pop with street and latin flavours... interesting
A little too much chaos and noise for me
I miss this indie, a little bit ethereal, but also with a punch and cool voice
Rock'n'roll with theatricality, appreciate the variety
Peter Gabriel at its peter gabrielest
Indie classic, it's alright, prefer "Carrie & Lowell"
Top 20 out of the 1001... perfect, enchanting, melancholic, even if it makes me think of autumn more than spring
Shouldn't be saying that knowing what I know about the band, but that's as perfect as the sound gets of the 60s flower power pure joy... I still have my "The Mamas & The Papas Greatest Hits" somewhere, so may not be objective
Love the vocals, love the guitar work, album starts more rockish, but becomes more melodic later
Dylan in his more polished, self-reflective version
Space rock... a little long for my taste, too much going on, too much talking
Springsteen going a little country with all the harmonica, enjoyed it
Early alternative music - has its moments, but generally not for me
I don't need to like all the classic stuff, I need melody behind all the raps. Annoying after 2 songs
I'm not a jazz girl, but these connections with samba were surprisingly smooth...
Sweet, introspective, raw, Nina Simone's vocals are out of the world
African influences add this music a sense of wonder of the unknown, vocals match perfectly
90s rock... fine, with glimpses of being something more interesting
Bowie at his artsiest, not my favourite, but still great
Magical, nostalgic, music of an older world
Artsy, psychodelic, a little tiring after a while
Totally forgot about this one... has nice moments, but a little too unhinged, unsure why it's on the list
Old school hip hop with bits of electro, just not my style, these songs are too long
This organ adds something to jazz... still not something for a whole album for me
Sample of early California rock, nice, something missing
Classic Motown sound, fantastic
The sound of 2020 lockdown... a little overwhelming, 10.00 album shouldn't include "Ladies"
Nothing for me here, at least I wasn't annoyed
Decent modern country, varied and sincere
I'm running out of patience for Pixies
So much screaming, hate it
Autumn, reflective, very British pop... love it
And the rest of electronic music was to be born... great that Kraftwerk added some pop touch without sacrificing artistic integrity
Sound of sophisticated disco, that groove is super tight
Very classic rock, on the heavier side, but still within my taste. Rest in peace Ozzy, for the life you led, you did live for a remarkably long time
Nice indie, nothing too revolutionary
Radiohead are in the league of their own... that's some mood
I'm not going to treat it like some masterpiece, just because it's The Beatles, and I love them, but that's some quality 60s pop, still fresh after all these years
Loving the voice, hating everything else
Why limit yourself to one genre, when you can go so far? Fantastic, with the best vocalist of all time
Probably great for those who love hip hop, too tedious for me. Nice beats
Something so raw and genuine about it. Love Portuguese language. One of the list's best discoveries
Fun ska pop, decent, even level
Another surprise, 70s rock and soul found a way to work together. Never heard of Joan, and that's a pity.
How do you even cathegorize this music... it's whatever he felt like playing.
Why would that album be among history's best or most memorable?
Pretty, haunting, wish it was shorter or more varied
Not as bad as I expected (hate this kind of music), but still it's hard for me to listen to the whole thing
"Unhinged" would be the word to describe it
A little bit overwhelming as a whole, still appreciate the concept
Sex, drugs & rock'n'roll... and classic upon classic. Iggy's magnus opum.
I just don't get ambient, good music I guess
Classic and classy. Not my favourite Sinatra's album, but that only proves his great output.
Would it be bad if I said that I preferred their later, more commercial phase? Oh well, I do still enjoy this.
Nice piece of 60s psychodelia. 17 minutes of the title track is a lot though
Still not vibing with hip hop
I'm gonna sound uncultured, but it's so boring, it's not popular music in any way. I should appreciate the talent I guess
Beck is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get... Not my favourite, but still pretty tasty
If Coldplay made albums like this, I can forgive what they made later
The Who getting sophisticated and emotional, love that
Cool Costello's transition towards the 90s
Some electronic, not the kind I'd listen to for the entire album. But it actually grew on me
What can you even say about this voice?
There's some raw quality to it with really nice melodies
Entering a cool Irish pub... nothing I'd put on by myself, but a fun experience
As much of a rap music as I can appreciate
Charming guitar, a little country sound
Mystical, captivating, amazing
Magical... one of the best discoveries from the list
Cool to see 90s teen pop represented :-) can't treat it as a masterpiece though
Creepy German covers on cheesy synths... why is it on the list?
I know it's a classic, but rap is really not my thing
Beach Boys going psychodelic, I liked it, some weird moments
Don't feel like I'm qualified to judge this
I can't judge rap, sorry... I guess it's great for the fans
Disappointing, too disjointed, had nice moments
I liked their other album on here more, maybe a little too much fuzz
Really not a gangsta rap girl, can't pretend I enjoyed it
Perfect Trevor Horn's production, just what I needed
Electronic... Prefer shorter songs
Heard better from R.E.M., not sure it needed to be included, still fine
Sonic perfection, one of my favourite albums of all time
Epic sounding, big songs... may be a little too much at points, but generally great stuff
Classy 50's ballroom. Cool, not very diversified
I wish I didn't already know all these songs, these versions aren't different enough. Still, those are good songs and Dusty is a good vocalist
Can't be fully objective, as "Bongo Bong" is one of those nostalgic songs from my childhood, that never get played anymore; but I love the creativity of the sound, something so raw and intriguing about it
70s sound without being hard or psychodelic, just super catchy
Folksy, reminds me of Joan Baez but with identity of its own. A whole album is a lot
Too weird for me, couldn't finish
Something so earnest about this blend of country and southern rock with Young's vocal... normally not that much of my cup of tea, but I have to admire it here
When future king was starting to step up to his crown. Disco with its own spin, still not perfect
I don't get the hate in the newest reviews, it's as good as a balladeer album can be, nice, varied songs, great vocals. I actually like it more than 21
I love how it sounds almost funky, but melancolic and rock'n'roll altogether... maybe I don't know what I'm talking about, but seriously, Bowie always delivers
Fun album with cool vocals, quite uneven
Nicely melancolic rock edge. Always had a soft spot towards this album.
Rolling Stones being classy and bluesy, I quite like it
More an experience and education that actual listening to music... I liked "Jennifer" though
Smiths were better... but Morrissey's music in general shouldn't be hated just because Morrissey made it
Solid Elvis Costello, I think his most classic sound
Full rap albums, even the classic ones, are just not for me
Clearly overlooked it the last time I listened to it, it's got that British cool
Old timey film music with bad vocals, quite charming actually
If Beatles were to continue being together, they'd sound like ELO, maybe, according to some. Just fantastic.
Old timey adventure movie vibe, I liked it
French vibe, more than music. Gainsbourg can definitely do better
Nice, if a bit forgettable (I totally had 0 recollection of this, despite hearing it at least twice before), I like its atmosphere
Classic, more raw sound of Talking Heads
Fantastic album to start the list (chronologically), beautiful and moving
This is some big album at the time, that became pretty unjustly forgotten. I appreciate her dedication to the concept, the songs are pretty varied too.
Actually a perfect title for the album's vibe, Kate's voice is immaculate
Pretty much elevator music, even if it's still has some charm
Catchy and fun, spirit of rock'n'roll still alive
There's a lot of charm to this indie, light rock
There's something striking in this madness... a little overwhelming though
They would do better later... still, nice mix of rock'n'roll, hard rock and blues
I enjoy well done, world music, a little monotone for a full album though
There's some charm to classic, classic country
There's some simplicity here, the image of a Californian beach, in the afternoon, without that much sun actually works here perfectly
On this list's (or this site's) battle for the best album ever I'm more the "Abbey Road" person... but can't deny its rightful 5 stars. What a classic.
Punk attitude with catchy melodies - just a classic
Another case of "appreciate the energy, wouldn't listen for the whole album"
That opening was... well, I guess I can appreciate the raps
Another beachy, contemplative album, so close after Neil Young... and both are great. You wouldn't expect this sound from Beck after only knowing "Loser"
Loud punk... not my cup of tea, could've been worse
Psychodelic, somehow funky 60s... there was only 1 Hendrix
Why did I remember it as more mellow and less rockish? Still a decent collection of different influences and good songs
George Michael remains one of my favourite singers of all time, I like how he wanted to stretch creatively on this record, while still producing quality pop.
Elvis doing standards... and being surprisingly great at them. Deservedly one of the biggest comebacks in music history
Straight 50s fun before rock'n'roll changed it all
The infamous album has finally come... If something is to turn me insane, that would be it
Something between Elvis Costello and Iggy Pop... nice, uneven
Latin class of working people... I don't know what to say, I just feel it
Sounds like Bjork... not surprise it's Icelandic :-) there's some interesting energy to it, sometimes works more, sometimes less
R.E.M. going soft and wistful... call me basic, but it's their most popular album for a reason, it truly stood the test of time
A little bit of blues, a little bit of psychodelic... certainly didn't expect it, I guess I need some hooks
Still sounding surprisingly fresh and energetic. Even if its the worst of Beatles' albums on the list it's still great
Didn't know what to expect from the cover... it wasn't that. Why was it a double album, just noise, that was done much better before
That's exactly my music - 80s sophistication.
Eh... just not very memorable
I don't care if it's too long, inessential for the list... on such a gray, rainy day this softness works for me. I'd say it sounds pretty modern for 2000 too.
Minimalism in Stevie's music
Classic 60s rock, filled with evergreens, surprisingly varied
I gotta say - a lot of unexpected turns. Music was pleasant enough
Smooth and sophisticated. Rest in peace D'Angelo
Won't quote Big Lebowski here, just a decent piece of 70s music
One of relatively few albums I actually own in physical form. I like Everything But The Girl, so underrated, just miss a little catchiness
I don't know, I liked Yankee Hotel, but I'm just not vibing with it
It is a classic, what can I say.. a little too repetitive for my taste
Very solid rock - I like ballads and more energetic tracks equally
Piece of alternative history, not exactly very musical
One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life. Why couldn't Nick Drake be appreciated in his lifetime...
It's a classic, it's pretty varied, a little long
There's some warmth to this music, lightness, nostalgia... really speaks to me
Unique electronic sound, can't deny it, a little too intensive for my taste
Nice surprise, a change of pace after Rumours, still sounding beautiful and rich
Not really my style, appreciate for the time being
I hate heavy stuff, but I guess it wasn't the most grating to my ears
You can definitely see Talking Heads wasn't just a David Byrne's baby... fun and eclectic and the music history can thank for "Genius Of Love"
Masterpiece, even if it's not easy to hear at times. "Epitaph" is one of the greatest songs ever written.
A little bit of punk, a little bit of surf rock... not my cup of tea
Classic gangsta rap, revolutionary for its time, not for me
It's Prince, it's classic. Not on "Purple Rain"'s level though
Something so earthy in this combination of rock and country, an album I would've never found if it wasn't for this list
That was some very quick return to King Crimson. Unfortunately, a downgrade too
One of "the big ones". 100% deservedly so.
I know it's a poster child for "critics loved it, now no one cares", but it doesn't matter, I love its softness, I love Norah's voice, I love not having to think about what's cool and what's not
I guess the production is solid, raps are nice, so let's give it a 3, so I don't need to listen to more rap
I don't know how popular of an opinion it is, but Pulp is the best brit pop band and this is their magnus opum
Classic country, very honest way of singing, I enjoyed it as much as I could
King Of Pop... Better than "Thriller" to me
Good album to wake up with and get some energy
Classic raps, bad interludes, I'm still not a hip hop fan
Baroque pop, short stories in short musical forms, I like it a lot
I do like this jackass' music... preferred him with the band though
Neil Young is definitely growing on me, both chilled and energetic
I'm confused and not willing to watch the non-existent movie. It has its moments I guess
Very Christmas music :-) no, seriously, why is it on the list?
