Imagine how good this list could be without the ridiculous angloamerican bias.

It's okay, but there's absolutely no reason for this album to be on this list.

5/5
While I might not give this album a full five stars in general, I'll be doing it here not only as a counter for this being (currently) second to lowest rated album on the whole site, but also because I think this is the kind of album that truly defines what SHOULD be on a "1001 albums you must hear before you die" type of a playlist. It might not be – in a big picture – commercially relevant, but it's a albums like these that truly define a marginal but overly passionate genre of music and is culturally far more relevant than any random mainstream one-hit-wonder or otherwise meaningless trendy thing from a short period of time in the past this list also has. It's albums like these you SHOULD hear at least once in your life to know just what kind of music people in the underground, in the shadows of the mainstream are overly passionate about. I completely understand why people might not like this, as it's clearly not for everyone (and then again what even is?) but I hope it makes at least a couple of people think what might be the idea and inspiration behind something like this. Oh, and it's still a great and pioneering record in its genre regardless, don't forget that.

Nothing too interesting music-wise but I appreciate the antisemitism and misogyny.
