1001 Albums Summary

Already listened to it many times. One of my favorites.

I know PJ by name for a long time now, but never really got to actually listen to her until now. Starting off, I didn't really love her voice in the opener. The music was cool, but nothing that blew my mind. Things change by the second song, 'Good Fortune'. Now this is something else. Gotta say that this is one of my favorite "new" songs in a while. I totally dig PJ's voice by now. It's like a more modern and grungier Patti Smith. Then other influences clearly show, like Nick Cave or Radiohead, which are quite obvious given her work and relationship with the former and the actual collaborations in this album of the latter. But all filtered through her own style. Amazing discovery for me.

One of my favorite albums ever. And certainly one of the best ever. For of the best and most influential rock musicians at the top of their game. If you don't get chills with that "YEAH!" then I'm sorry, but rock music isn't your thing.

Awesome groove, though some of the songs feel too long and repetitive.

A few of Radiohead albums are among my favorites ever. This one isn't one of them. It's rather one of the ones I could never really get into, along with Amnesiac. Some really great songs, but the album as a whole feels kinda sparse and uneven.

Beautiful album. Not my fave from Elliott, though.

Got nothing against S&G, I actually like some of their songs, but this was too boring. Maybe in other time, on a different mood. Still giving it 3 stars.

Stone cold classic. The first four songs are one of the best openers out there. Arguably the most important hip hop album ever.

Great album. Never heard anything besides the classics (Pretend, Kids) which, by the way, are contenders for some of the greatest songs of the century so far.

Awesome.

Seminal heavy metal album. Arguably the best ever in that genre, and one of the greatest of rock in general, too.
