1001 Albums Summary

Never heard of the album, I was pleasantly surprised. Absolutely phenomenal!

I didn’t know what I was getting into as I had never heard of the album or band, and the album cover didn’t tell me a lot about the album, but I was very pleasantly surprised!

It’s ABBA, just some extremely basic but relatively enjoyable pop music. Nothing special

Fantastic album, very fun listening experience. Great bad day cure!

Phenomenal album, Michael Jackson’s 3rd best besides Thriller and Off The Wall

I get why this album is considered good, but I really dislike big band and find it extremely boring.

Not much to say, just a phenomenal album. I wouldn’t call it a 10, but definitely closer to 5 stars than 4

I hate that I actually like this. It is the perfect amount of corny/cringy to be enjoyable if you get what I mean.

Don’t like eminem normally, but this was alright. Some tracks were pretty corny but all around okay

I wanted to listen to this one for a while, and I’m glad I did. Great album

Pretty fun album, about what I was expecting

Enjoyable but basic radio rock music

Was expecting this to be a pop album, but I was quite pleasantly surprised

I don’t know why but I didn’t like this album at all

What the fuck

Stevie Wonder the goat🙏

This is a classic for a reason. My favourite Stones record as of now. Easy 5 stars!

Loved this album! I normally am not the biggest fan of pop but this was great!

Mind numbingly boring. This exact album had been done 1000 times before and after. Every track sounds the same. Also extremely corny

Talking heads are s top 3 band of all time🙏

I never really listened to African music, so this was a fun new experience. Although it’s not my type of music, I can definitely appreciate it!

First album I’m not gonna finish. I listened to the first track and that was more than enough to know that this is by far the worst album I got so far

Good album, and while it’s not my type of music I can see why it’s a classic

I forgot to listen to this album and honestly don’t feel like it

White guy music

Sounds pretty much the exact same as the other Costello record I listened to. Not much special to say

Even more white people orchestra music like that of evin costello if you get what I mean. Not bad per se, but very boring

Fine enough album, don’t like the meta commentary in the first track, it just gave me the ick. Pretty creative though

Pretty fun album I guess. Nice, summery electronic sound

Not really my type of rock, every song sounds the same imo, but it’s Back In Black. Can I really give it a low rating?

Great album, it’s a classic for a reason

Weirdly fun album. I love this type of music, idk what it is called

Great album, but as the title suggests it feels more like a single and a couple of other tracks thrown together instead of an album

Very fun album, but yet again nothing very interesting

Fine enough album, didn’t like the cover and the music wasn’t special but certainly not bad

Did not at all sound like what I was expecting. I was expecting it to be either a boyband or chamber pop, but this was pleasantly surprising.

Great album, it has a very nice early 2000s internet vibe that I love.

I like my fair share of white girl music, but this is not it

Fine enough album, a bit too long for my taste. I really like how he talks to the listener on track 7 though!

It is a really good album, but I think it could have been cut short by a couple of songs as it sounds very repetitive towards the end of the record.

Very fun jazz album, it reminds me a lot of witches brew for some reason

It’s an okay album. Some of the singing is great, while other parts of it are outdated. I don’t particularly like it but don’t really dislike it either

No way that this racist fucker starts the album off by talking about justice and equal rights. Unfortunate that he of all people is extremely talented. Great album, but -2 stars for Morrissey.

One of my all time favourite albums. Glad I get to listen to it again! Easiest 5 stars so far

Fine enough record, doesn’t really do a lot for me but it certainly doesn’t sound bad

Around half of the albums I have gotten so far have been some multi-instrumental white guy making an orchestral pop/rock album. Truly the coleslaw of music

I love radiohead, and either this or kid A is the best radiohead album. Easy 5!

Absolutely fantastic album, just not quite in 5 star territory though

Didn’t really know what I was getting into, but this album felt like a journey!

Brian Wilson is truly a genius, and you can hear the roots of Pet Sounds in this album. I don’t get why they put the last track on the album though.

I hate the stupid instruments they use amd I hate the shitty vocals.

Not even finishing this, it is so corny and boring

I love me some Paul Simon, and this is a pretty fun album.

Very groovy album, there is a reason why this is an all time classic

One of my favourite album covers of all time, and Jimmy Hendrix is great in general

I really dislike Madonna, and it doesn’t help that this album was made 20 years after her prime

Fantastic album with some good hits. Love me some Billy Joel!

This is probably great if you’re a Johnny Cash fan, but unfortunately I’m not. I also don’t like how he’s just talking for half of the album, although I do understand why this album is on this list.

Pretty fun album, also the perfect length. I enjoyed listening to it, but I don’t think I could handle more than half an hour.

The best Green Day album, I’ve got this one on CD. One of the best punk albums of all time, I really enjoy this one!

Beautiful album, it is very long but I can’t name a track I would cut. It feels like a hauntingly beautiful journey

Half of this album isn’t even on spotify, and the part that is isn’t that good

Very weird album, I wouldn’t call it bad but I don’t know what I would call it

It’s like a more depressed, more mediocre Beatles. It’s still good because it sounds like them, but I would never listen to this over something like Abbey Road or Revolver

Absolute punk classic, it sounds a bit repetitive, but I appreciate what it has done for the music scene.

Fun album, I really enjoyed the vocals.

Pretty fun album, it kinda sounds like 70’s rock as a genre if you know what I mean

Classic alt rock album, enjoyed listening to this!

Very fun, summery album! I don’t know what genre this is, but I love it!

Didn’t even make it through the album, just awful.

Great album, I like the production and the vocals are fantastic

Very fun album, sounds like something that would play in a 70s discotheque

I love Jimi Hendrix, and this might just be his best album, with the only competition being Electric Ladyland. Psychedelic rock classic

Very chill late night album. Sounds like animal crossing music

Never really listened to any black rock from the 60s besides this, so it was a fun experience

Good album, not too remarkable.

I had never heard of this band before now, and I’m glad I did because it’s great!

This album isn’t on spotify, and it doesn’t seem like the type of album where I want to put in the effort and listen to it elsewhere.

Pretty fun album, nothing else to say

I just don’t enjoy 50s music, it all sounds too dated. (with the exception of Frank Sinatra) This is slightly better than other music from this period, but still not good

Good I guess, the vocals are unique

Very creative and unique electronic style, it sounds great!

I forgot to listen to it, probably alright though

Unfortunately a great album, despite the fact that it’s Morrissey

Great production and really interesting vocals. Fantastic album

Great album, although a bit dated. Bob Dylan is fantastic

Fine enough, but it just dragged on for too long

One of Radiohead’s best, easy 5 stars

Just not my type of music.

Great groovy album, love me some Steely Dan

One of the best metal/hard rock albums ever. RIP Ozzy Ozbourne

Fantastic, Paul McCartney the goat

Beautifully sad and mysterious.

Great vibes, although it does sound a bit dated at times

Would give it 1 star, but I have to give it 2 for how weird this album is.

Completely perfect, probably the best Beatles album besides Abbey Road.

Ice T is pretty mid but this is alright

Great album, love the vocals in particular

Beautiful album, every instrument individually sounds random but they come together so well

Very chaotic angsty album but in a good way

Bruce Springsteen is a one trick pony, and while it isn’t a bad trick, I can’t give him higher than 3 stars because of that.

I can’t understand what they’re saying, but it sounds great

I love the Doors, although I prefer their first album

No.

Fantastic album, that first track is a masterpiece

Very good album, although a little slow at times

I just don’t like 50’s music (besides Sinatra) although this isn’t too bad.

It’s alright, there are certainly better Prince albums though

Sounds very ahead of its time. Great album!

Fantastic album and a great anti-mainstream left turn from Nevermind

Spanish Beatles

Fun but very weird album

One of the best rap albums ever, crazy that he was only 20 when he dropped this.

I hate the vocals, and the instrumentals, while good, don’t make up for it.

I don’t like Deep Purple all that much, but this was very good.

I love bossa nova, Frank Sinatra, and this album also has my favourite version of The Girl From Ipanema.

Fantastic album, you’d think that Everybody Wants To Rule The World would be overplayed by now, but it’s just a timeless song.

The story is fucked up, and the music really isn’t that good. Just some soft guitar with whispering over it. This is some bullshit that only the French could cook up.

Its fine enough, I just don’t really care for this type of music

Very unique meditative album

Its a mix between country and rock, which im not a huge fan of

Great album, I love the cover art

Great music and great social commentary. One of the founding rap albums

Forgot to listen to this one, but I love every other Funkadelic album I’ve heard, so I’m sure it’s great

Really good album, although I feel like they could have left out some tracks and made others longer.

I didn’t like any of the previous Elvis Costello albums, but this one is honestly pretty good.

Good dance/disco album, nothing else to say

Not bad, but just not my type of music or very unique

I hate country music, and even at half an hour this album felt like a slog

Good album, feels very spacey

Great vocals, but other than that not very interesting.

This sounds like the soundtrack to a secondary school play.

Im not doing this.

Was really in the mood for this right now, very good album!

Just relistened this album yesterday, it’s absolutely fantastic. Great lyrics, great instrumentals and I love. The rapping over rock music

Not bad, but unremarkable

Really enjoyed this one, a banger debut album.

Wasn’t expecting to like this as much as I did considering there are very few non-rock albums from this time that I enjoy.

Was expecting this to be a punk album but was extremely pleasantly surprised. Genuinely one of the most unique hip hop albums I’ve ever listened to, criminally underrated!

Honestly mindblowing. Really enjoyed this one

Banger

I’ve heard very few albums that are this fun to listen to. I definitely see why this is so beloved

This would be your favourite album if you were 75.

Fun listen, although the vocals did get annoying at times and some of the songs sounded the same.

Very chill late night album, definitely one of my favourite jazz albums.

Not as good as London Calling, but still a fantastic punk record

Very good, I’d expect this band to have more listeners considering the quality of their music

It wouldn’t be crazy to call this THE founding hiphop album, and it just so happens to be great as well.

Started off strong, but that dropped down right after that.

Great album, classic sound, but just not quite a 5 star for me.

Not bad by any means, but honestly pretty boring. No real standouts or anything

I hadn’t listened to any of the Beatles’ older catalogue yet, although I’m a big fan of their more popular work. I didn’t know any of the songs on here, but I was pleasantly surprised!

Very funky album, I love this type of music!

Very fun album

Don’t really like his gravelly voice, but it’s still Bob Dylan.

Very chill album, but not always very fun.

Normally I’d feel that an album being this long was overstaying its welcome, but it’s the Beatles, so that’s impossible

Very unique voice, and although I prefer his son this is still great.

Probably in my top 3 hip hop albums. This album also helped as my gateway from rap to jazz and other types of music. I love it!

Wasn’t expecting an album called “Emperor Tomato Ketchup” to be a genuinely beautiful, fantastic experience

Not bad, but I don’t care for it either

Great album, but this dude is too horny sometimes

Very boring album, although I guess I did somewhat enjoy the Sunny Side Of The Street cover

It’s fine

Pretty much exactly what I want out of a 60s psychedelic rock album

Stevie Wonder is a genius, and this is just a really feel good album. Easy 5

This album fucks

I normally enjoy drum and bass, but this one just feels really dragged out, and I also prefer drum and bass without vocals

I really don’t like 50s music

Fine enough album, sounds very dated though

Very weird, not my thing

Boring

Good, but not really my thing

Fun listen, it has a couple of bangers, but otherwise not very memorable

I’m sure it’s great if you love death metal, and the cover is great, but I just hate the genre

Very fun listen, beautiful, unique album

Boring metal slop

Great beats, great rapping, very nice production style

Very fun, very influential and also very good

Hell yeah, cranking my hog to this

Possibly the most iconic album ever made

Pretty forgettable

I don’t know what genre this is, but if it isn’t country then it’s way too country-like

Great prog rock

Very nice production

I didn’t like U2 before this, but it was honestly mind blowing how good this album is. Wasn’t expecting this at all

If Igor opened me up to music, then this is the album that really sucked me in. Very few albums mean as much to me as this one

Very good, really love the electronic guitar-like instrument

I really love Daft Punk, and I have a hard time deciding my favourite album of theirs. This just might be it though.

If I had to pick one album to divide music als an art form in a “before” and “after” it would be this one.

I get why they call him the best blues singer in the beginning because this is fire

What the fuck bro

Banger, Marvin Gaye can’t miss

Not particularly fond of the British, but these ones are alright.

I didn’t really get the love for The Pixies at first, but I get it now. They have their own unique sound, and the vocals especially. I wouldn’t call them conventionally good, but they perfectly fit the instrumentals.

Very happy music, sounds exactly like what I’d expect from a latin album

Sounds exactly like the cover, the quintessential shoegaze album

Boring, and I don’t like that stupid smirk on the cover

Fun listen, every track is a banger

Very good prog rock album, the first track is great but the rest isn’t very memorable

I love the Smiths and I love this album

I am only familiar with the hits by Queen, but this was still just great.

Weird style of music, but I like it

Sounds like a fever dream

Alright album, I didn’t like the opening track but the rest was pretty good

Every song sounds like it’s from a different album, and somehow it’s still all great

What an amazing album. Unexpectedly good

I like blues rock, and this is good blues rock. The cover is good too

A very good jazz album, albeit a little boring at times.

It’s a fine album, but I honestly found it quite boring

I didn’t care for it, most tracks range from fine but dull to bad

Not for me

I wouldn’t call it conventionally good, but it is just so special that I can’t help but give it 5 stars

Very gun album, although no tracks really stand out

Normally not a Bruce Springsteen fan, but I enjoyed this one

I can confidently say that this is one of my favourite albums from the 70’s. It’s just so good

The first Tupac album I listened to, and I definitely understand why he is considered one of the best rappers of his time. This album is everything I’d want from a 90s rap album.

I normally expect albums released decades after an artist’s prime to be worse than their older work, but I still greatly enjoyed this one

I prefer the Beatles, but the Stones are still just fantastic and this is proof of that

I had heard of Solange before, but never listened to her. Glad I did, because this is great

I hate 50 Cent as a person, but he sure does know how to make a banger

Really good album, but unfortunately the Friends theme song is from this

Fire

Fine enough, I enjoyed it

Don’t know what genre this is, but it’s really good

I can now confidently say that this is my favourite Radiohead album. It just so good man

Fantastic album, wasn’t expecting anything but a 5

Alright, not too notable

Not really for me, but I definitely ses that this is a very well made album

These dudes really made a perfect album and then just stopped

What the hell

Some of the tracks are good, others are annoying to listen to

I’ve never been an AC/DC fan, so I wasn’t expecting to really enjoy this anyway

Possibly the best Bowie album besides Ziggy Stardust

I get what they were going for with the vocala, but I just don’t think it worked out

The guitar is obviously great because it’s Van Halen, but I don’t really care about the rest

Just some bullshit

The instrumentals are very good, but the lyrics are just so corny and awful.

Good, not great

David Bowie is so goated

I love the Stones, but they can do better than this

Some of the tracks are fantastic, while others are verg strange. Overall it balances itself out

This album is almost legendary, and it deserves that status

Beautiful

Didn’t really care for it.

Jolly

It was enjoyable, bur nothing too special

Certified middle aged mom classic

Great album

Fun listen, just not my type of music

Fantastic writing and a great performance

The Kinks are just awesome

Loveless is one of my favourite albums, but this one is just great as well.

One of the most iconic albums ever. It goes without saying that this is a 5 star album

I liked it, although the first half was a little better than the second

At times the lyrics have something interesting to say, but most of the times they just sound deranged.

Very unexpected but very easy 5 star

Springsteen is beginning to grow on me. I think that most of all he is a good storyteller, and this album shows that very well

I was so excited for this listen. I just love the doors man, they are so good

Didn’t expect a dude names T-Rex to make a genuinely fantastic album

Bob Marley albums are always very fun

I just really dislike country

Very interesting dreamlike experience

Bangers

Very fun album, but otherwise not special

I don’t think there is a single bad Tribe Called Quest album or even song.

This is some very French bullshit

Really enjoyed this one, reminds me of the Arctic Monkeys

Not my type of genre, although it was still very good

It’s good, not great

It’s fantastic, but I think that Money For Nothing should have been placed later into the album. The rest just felt a little weak compared to it

I have been meaning to listen to LCD Soundsystem for a while, and I am glad I did.

The Stones are just fantastic. I’m a little sad that Paint It Black isn’t on the UK version though.

It’s fine, no comment

I don’t know what this type of 80’s music is called, but it’s a lot of fun

This album is such a vibe

Short and sweet

I really love jazz, and this is great jazz

From the cover I was expecting this to be a black/death metal album. Safe to say that I was pleasantly surprised

Just too strange for my taste

Nick Drake is such an insanely talented musician. I don’t think he can make a bad song

There’s something to be said for this being Kendrick Lamar’s best album.

This album sounds like a dream

It’s fine

Some bangers, but I hate the narrator guy. Really took me out of the listening experience

I see the appeal, but I didn’t care for it

It is reminiscent of Aphex Twin, which is good because I love Aphex Twin

It’s okay

Straight bangers. This was such a fun album

I enjoy most music from the 60’s, but this album really didn’t click with me for some reason

Rapping in the UK should be punishable by death.

Leonard Cohen is my undisputed goat

Probably my baseline for a 3 star album

Good, unremarkable

I just found this a very fun and enjoyable listen

Prince pretty much always makes fantastic to perfect music

This lady knows how to sing

I don’t even know what genre this is, but it’s fantastic

It sounds like an even sadder version of Kid A

Very long, but it’s so good that I don’t mind

A bit boring, but definitely not bad

Very fun live performance

I understand all the hype around Linkin Park now. This goes so hard

I didn’t particularly like it. I thought he had a pretty whiny voice

Strange, but very good

I don’t really care about this band

The best Bob Marley album

I get why people have been hyping up this album for so long now.

No comment

I’m not a big Dire Straits guy, but this is pretty damn good

A slow burn, but it got there in the end

So many classic songs on here

Maybe I just didn’t want to listen to a pop album today or maybe Adele just isn’t for me, but I enjoyed this magnitudes less than 21. I get that it is probably pretty good, but I refuse to sit through it

No

Possibly the most fun 60’s album to listen to (besides some Beatles albums)

One of the best albums from one of the best bands ever

Short and sweet, enjoyable listen

Monumental

Extremely dull. Didn’t even finish it because it made me so miserable

I liked it

I love Steely Dan so much

Like listening to a play

Did not sound like I expected at all, but I’ve been meaning to listen to this for a while and I’m glad I finally did it

My favourite Deep Purple album

I found it pretty repetitive, but understand the appeal

Nothing too special

Loved it more than I expected

I hate most country music

First Lana Del Rey album I’ve listened to. It’s good, but she’s one of the most overrated artists of this generation

If there was a Mount Rushmore of albums, this would be on it

Almost hauntingly beautiful

Not sure if I enjoyed this or Automatic For The People More.

Great band

Good album. I liked it.

Reminded me of In The Aeroplane Over The Sea for some reason

Nice listen

I liked it more than the other Elliot Smith record I listened to

Nobody has a voice like Tom Waits

I thought that this was going to be some rock album. I was extremely pleasantly surprised

I like funk, but I feel like 10+ minute tracks don’t work that well with the genre

Boring

Some classics on here, but the rest doesn’t stand out all that much

I’d heard of Anita Baker before, but hadn’t listened to her. Great soul album

Absolutely love it

Good, not great

Don’t particularly like ABBA, but I’m happy that this album didn’t really have any of their huge hits

I was expecting to like this album, but ended up loving it

Great

You always hear about Velvet Underground and Nico, but this was better in my opinion

Awful, I hate this band

Fantastic

I liked it, but I’ve also heard better rap albums from the same era

Liked it more than I thought I would

I liked it, but I’ve also heard better rap albums from the same era

I doubt that anyone under the age of 70 actually likes this

Nice

Alright

Alright I guess

I love weird albums like this

Didn’t finish it. I really hate the sitar as an instrument.

Wayyy too long, and not even good music

Fun I guess

I don’t really like it

One of the best guitar solos ever, followed by sole fun but great songs

One of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard

Hell yeah

I liked it, but I feel like naming your band The Band is like putting a hat on a hat

Felt very personal. It was good

Didn’t like it

Pretty crazy, but good

Fantastic, this is such a fun album

Greatest band of all time

This album has an amazing vibe

Not my thing

Definitely not one of my favourite bands, but it was good

Liked it

Good, fun

Hell yeah

Full of bangers

Good but not memorable
