1001 Albums Summary

This wasn't written for me and that's okay

deliciously smooth

So aggressively British

This feels like the kind of music that music people listen to

Just say you want to be Jim Croce and go

I thought I really liked the cure but I guess I only like the hits

I think movie soundtracks should automatically be disqualified. Was this really an album I had to hear before I died?

listen I like goth music but I'm starting to question the sanity of the publisher of the list because this is not casual listening here

The 80s concentrated- feels like being at my dentists office

Hey I knew some of these

it's giving laser tag arena

so the lyrics to the tiktok song are not "I will be your bottom feeder" as it turns out

truly timeless

romanticize the 70s

god forbid a white boy catch a vibe

Ambient background noise

Hey I've heard of this one!

empty calories

Big jamming

can't top an OG

I don't think live albums should have been an option for this list either

looking for a vampire club that plays Depeche Mode

why are there so many songs

sitar? I barely know her

who says disco is dead? I'll subject my whole office to it

finally some good fucking food

witches never age

three days late for this one lol

every song does not need to be fifteen minutes

I have come to truly appreciate this more than I ever expected

we have different interpretations of a club classic

my dad hates this album lol

I am so tired of noise

definitely experimental but amongst the slog of noise there were some real highlights that sounded like SOAD meets Elvis

front loaded for sure

big CCR fans in this house

that song was in everything for so long

I had insanely high hopes from the guy who did The Wanderer and Runaround Sue only for them to be completely and utterly dashed

why did the first song sound like stardew valley music

one thing I've learned from this list is that Led Zep is very consistent

the Led Zep consistency continues

y'all can listen to the clash and say that's not noise but this is??

I want to like Bob Dylan but every time I listen I am so disappointed

this is one of my favorite genres of music.

I can see the beginnings of rock here still tangled up with the pop sounds of the 60s.

none of things I enjoy about Bowie are in this album

some real deep cut gems in here

smooth elevator music

no drugs to be seen here folks. none at all.

people keep telling me Radiohead is one of the best to ever do it and this was not the place to start

so much potential! so much weirdness

nu metal my beloved

it's nice to hear some music that doesn't take itself so seriously, but the musical influences are strong here

it's no License to Ill that's for sure

if the whole album sounded like Save A Prayer we would have a 5 star album on our hands

the people talking about how deep and emotional this is are nuts

garage punk if it was the doors

Please don't evangelize to me in funk music

finally some good fucking food

when I started this project I was expecting to listen to black sabbath deep cuts. not haunted house ambient noises.

I have a clear bias toward albums of the tumblr era but I do not care

an absolute classic. wall to wall bangers

surprise sleeper hit. if only this was on spotify...

I'm not sure if this is purely fate or an intentional manipulation of the algorithm, but I'm receiving this pull the day after Ozzy's passing. RIP to one of the greatest to ever do it.

not as good as their self titled but never bad work from the xx

CCR has a sound and they stick to it but damn if it's not exceptional

a stark contrast to yesterday's 5/5 from CCR comes some absolutely delightful soft folk/jazz

agony served via soundtrack. how I miss Chris Cornell

now here's something I'm familiar with

another round of one hit wonder 80's bands...who could have seen this coming

I like metal so this is not new to me but it is what I would call grimy- definitely not to everyone's taste and arguably not even to mine but I have to give flowers where they're due

as a lifelong Pink Floyd superfan...you know what hell yeah

this probably shouldn't have been where I started with Fiona Apple respectfully

begging a taylor swift fan to listen to this songwriting and tell me she compares even remotely

better than people made it out to be but I wouldn't call it great

big fan of the lack of coherent vocalization personally

unexpectedly nice, coming from someone who never ever listens to purely instrumental work

I wanna kick something but alas I am listening from my desk job
