1001 Albums Summary

Good album, very Springsteen all about the working class, lots of sax. Not a personal taste, but he seems to be telling a story that is important.

Good record, really liked the sound. Somewhere between the strokes and daft punk. Energizing, and a total vibe.

Pretty great album. Ironic that he talked so much about being killed throughout the album. Fun listen, dragged a bit toward the end and had some... interesting sound scapes.

The White Album... Ohhh the White Album. How can you rate something you have listened to 1000+ times? This is the first Beatles album that has been served to me, so I should at least try to be objective, right?? Truth is... I can't. I love the White Album, flaws and all. Sure I frequently skip songs like Piggies and Revolution 9. Sure it is criminal that Not Guilty and Sour Milk Sea weren't included on the final track list. But hey, that is what the deluxe remaster is for! All in all this double album highlights all facets of Beatles music, from the grunge Helter Skelter and Happiness is a Warm Gun, the ridiculous Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da, the loving I Will and Julia, and everything in between. The White Album has something for everyone and will continue to be a timeless hit for me. There is more I can write, but nothing else that hasn't already been said by someone else. 4.5/5 stars!!

This was a pretty okay album. I thought a lot of the instrumental was pretty and added to each song. I just cant get behind the vocals... They felt dragging and relatively monotone.

MTV unplugged series is awesome, Nirvana's showcase is no exception. Hard to find a song to dislike on this album. It is darn near perfect!

White boy not invited to the cookout. Didn't like this one... Lot of noise... Lot of yelling about beer and being angry about stuff. From a musicality perspective the 'beats' are a little bit honky tonk, a little bit rap? Maybe a little catchy but it is easy to ignore because of the cringe lyrics. All in all I wanted this one to be over pretty much as soon as the first song started. Would not listen again.

Interesting listen! Much of this album felt like it was straight from Scott Pilgrim (see: Sex Bob-ombs) in that it was a sort of riot-punk vibe. Ultimately I like the 'vibe' of much of this album, with Deceptacon being the obvious standout, but I think the overall setlist leaves a bit to be desired. Things get a little repetitive (I literally thought the album had started over at 'Let's Run)' making this a hard one for me to come back to for a full re-listen.

This album was a bit of a surprise to me. I mean, I didn't like it, but after listening to the first song I thought I reaaally wouldn't like it. I think I am not a fan of rock/rap?

This album has a bit of everything! I appreciate a musician who is willing to flex a bunch of different muscles. Janelle Monáe takes you from pop/hiphop, to jazz, to sci-fi, to what feels like music from the Wiz? It was a lot to take in, but by the time the last song finished playing, this album exceeded my expectations.

So... Ya like Jazz? Thelonius Monk's Brilliant Corners is the first Jazz album I have been served. I liked it! The whole thing felt like tumbling down a flight of stairs, bumping and running into things along the way. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to listen to this again, but I appreciate it for what it is.

Spanish HAIM?? As others have said, I am not really sure why this was included on the list. Nothing in this album particularly stands out as noteworthy, and for the most part blends in with its genre of modern pop.

I had never really listened to Kendrick Lamar prior to this, but I came away really liking this album. I love good story telling and I love a concept album.

Aside from Psycho Killer there really isnt much in this album that is for me. A lot of the songs sound similar and are sprinkled with weird for the sake of weird. Just not that enjoyable to listen to, at least for me.

This is one of those albums where I recognize why people might like it. It’s well made, can be catchy, and has a high production quality. But… it’s just not for me. Kind of feels too clean? A lot like the rich kid who wants to be indie and gets really into raves? I found myself more interested in the filler tracks and wanting to turn off the singles.

I liked this album and the Brit punk vibes

Lot of noise. Songs were fairly repetitive with only a couple that saved it for me.

I like the vibe of this album. There are some obvious bangers and all-time hits! Aside from that, there are also a lot of repeats that are just different iterations of the same songs, which made listening a bit of a chore at times.

Really creative album! Lot of musical variation which I enjoy. This album does sound a bit dated and stuck in the 80s.

Dearest album generator, please spare me another David Byrne or Brian Eno album. Thanks.

Compositionally fantastic and lyrically haunting. I appreciate getting this the day after Brian Wilson's passing.

To be honest I found this album pretty boring. Aside from the last song, many of the songs sound the same and seem to hit the same note over and over. I get why this is ‘good’ but it is just not for me.

Great listen. Love my some Fleetwood Mac and enjoyed the creativity of this album

This was a fun listen. It felt like the soundtrack to a rock-western at times. At other times the album does date itself as very millennial-core.

I mean come on. Doesn’t get much better than this.

Absolute classic. Every song is a banger!

Classic doors. Spooky vibes

Really enjoyed this one. I like the variety of songs and the harmonies they put together. Subtle but pretty effective

Enjoyed this more than I thought I would based on how I felt listening to other Springsteen music. Good listen!

Handful of absolute bangers mixed in with a bit too much angst.

Great album full of bangers. Lot of creativity in hip hop from this era that makes it fun to listen to

Hard to find any flaws in this album. Melodic with a lot of variation between songs. Easy listen.

I see why some people might like this but it is not for me

Really great classic album

Not really my thing

British rap is low key embarrassing

Really enjoyed this album. Easy listen and quite a vibe aside from some religious stuff

Decent listen, probably wouldn’t come back to it

Mixed feelings about this one. I liked the energy of the music… but goddamn Cee-Lo Green has one of the most annoying voices and presence out there. My man sounds like Eric Cartman on the mic

Kinda weird idk

This time I do like jazz!

This time I did not like the jazz so much

Really enjoyed this! Wasn’t sure what to expect but I dig it

Absolutely not

Hell yeah

Kind of repetitive nothing too special for me

Can hear so much influence on early Beatles and other rock bands. Fun listen!

Weird and wacky album that was fun and creative

This is an amazing album. Changes is beautiful song, there wasnt much to dislike here!

Pretty alright

Good album, all covers though which brings it down a bit

Lot of bangers on this one

Idk I think it would’ve been better with more distortion

Couple of great songs, lot of others that were kind of mid

I’m not going to say this was bad, just that I would absolutely never seek any of this out on my ow

yeahhhh boiiiiii! Parts of this I liked, but other noisy, heavily repeated parts drove me a bit nuts

Nice and easy listen

Really easy and fun listen! Wasnt sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised.

Ngl I hated this. It’s super noisy and the lyrics are pure cringe

Noisy and a bit whiney. Not really for me

So great, listened to this while cooking. Would recommend!!

This was a bit too noisy and all over the place for me. The production style was raw and not well polished. At times this comes across as charming, at other times it is just busy

Absolutely loved this. I’ve heard their music before but it was a great experience to listen through the chaos of a whole album

Wow is the mutual influence of the beatles and byrds strongly apparent in this album. For me, the byrds lack some of the soul that I find in beatles music.

Love me some Cure! Lot of hits on this album. I really appreciate a theme and when songs feel like pieces to a larger act, as they do here. This album is unique, weird, and great at what it does.

Great album. Never listened to much Lauryn Hill but this was awesome

Chill, easy listen with great production quality. This is a timeless classic.

Found this to be suuuuper annoying to listen to. Not sure why, but I really disliked this

Great album! Never listened to the Kinks much but I enjoyed the energy and vibe of this one.

Didn’t hate it, but I’m not sure why it’s on this list

Great, energetic listen. Very fun and influential

Idk I either like REM or find them super annoying

Ive heard most of these... Not really a fan but I get it

Liked this more than I thought I would!

So many bangers on this one. Amazing production and sleeper hits

Did not like this!

Hits on here were a bit drowned out by some pretty below average songs or covers

Big dislike here

No ty

Classic!

Pretty alright

A lot of noise, which I dont love, with some redeeming qualities.

Lot of bangers on this one

At the start this jazz needed some boundaries. A bit to chaotic for me. But after a few songs I started to get into it a bit more.

Not really my taste in music but I enjoyed this well enough!

Classic album with a ton of bangers

Absolute classic album. Really enjoyed this one

Great album

This is the best album ever made!

Strooong dislike on this. I find most if not all of these songs annoying and strange,

Easy listen!

Enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would

Aside from one song this is pretty unbearable

Do not vibe with the sad cali girl music

Enjoyed this one! Usually not a huge fan of live albums, but this was great

Amazing

This is such an easy, great listen. Love me some Paul Simon.

Pretty alright. A lot of the songs started to blend together

This album is wayyy to chaotic for what it is. Really hard to get through

Not the worst album from the 80s. Still not my favorite decade

My brother needs to write his own songs

This was fun but also a bit stressful.

This was kind of fun

Good listen kind of repetitive but a classic

Not really for me

Classic album with a lot of great songs

This was a bit repetitive for me

Really dig this album. A lot of fun and really only peters out at the end

Not for me

Absolute banger of an album

Please let this be the last talking heads album I get. There are wayyyy too many on this list

Hard to find a bad song on this album. Pretty darn near perfect.

Great album

Not a huge reggae fan, but I can understand why people like this

Easy listen enjoyed a lot

Thought this was pretty okay. There are a lot of neil young songs that I do like, but not so much this album

Very goo

This album was rad

Hard not to like this one

Pretty tired of getting albums by the Pixies. It is a LOT of noise

Easy listen

This honestly got pretty annoying

Holy hell this was stressful. I like jazz (we have covered this in previous reviews) but this jazz needs some boundaries

Wtf absolutely not

I liked this one! Not sure if I would reach for it again but it was an enjoyable listen.

Liked this one! Reminds me of like an alt version of david bowie? Is that a hot take??

Great album. Went out and bought some Aretha Franklin on vinyl after

The more 'soul' songs at the end were nice. Everything else kind of sucked. Very 'after school special' written by someone in a completely different class than their listening demographics

I feel like there is a bowie bias going on... Dont think this needed to be on the list tbh

I can dig it

Low key a vibe

mf british white boy rap... seriously???????

Good album, would listen again

Queen has some really high highs and imo some really low lows. Dont love most of the songs on this album

Easy listen!

Good listen, would come back to

Really enjoyed this one

Super repetitive ngl

THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THIS. VERY STRESSFUL BUT GOOD

This album was an absolute vibe! Lot of songs I hadnt heard, but banger after banger sent me on an ABBA spree

This was fine. Some things were a bop others were camp

No thats okay

Mf sad boy music. Its fine? Idk something inside my bones just cant stand it

I can dig it. Lot of great songs, but also a lot of filler

I mean its kind of a bop idk maybe im just in a weird mood

Kind of love it tbh

Best post breakup album by any Beatle (along with RAM but THATS NOT ON THIS LIST FOR SOME REASON)

Sorry mom

Thats okay

Enjoyed it! Not as great as some other Stevie albums

Idk but I love it leave me alone

Got a bit old

Some good songs

REALLY GREAT ALBUM

Couple of bangers but it got old in between tbh

stressin me tf out stop that

Got kind of old ngl, some soft boy music

Bought this on vinyl recently and it is an absolute treat. I used to not be super fond of Led Zep III, but nowadays I find this album to be fun, beautiful, and rad. Not perfect, but damn near close!

Didnt like this as much as I wanted to

no thats okay

This is a banger fr

vibin @ the discotheque

Would

I enjoyed this one

Hmm

Kind of repetitive

Parts of this album are dated and grating. Other parts are bangers.

This is one of those albums where I get why people rate it so high. Just not for me tbh

This stressed me out ngl

This album is like having a slow panic attack

This was like... Fine... Idk why its on the list tbh

Kind of a vibe tbh

Great album. John was a bit of a cry baby at times, How do you sleep still pmo tbh

Loved this, want it on vinyl

Easy listen

Some of the songs on this album are such bangers, others are kind of repetitive

Love

Every song is a hit! Aside from 'Oh daddy' but thats not bad. This is one of the best albums made. Great listen.

why

Kind of corny ngl

STEELY DAN

stressin me out ngl

Pretty ok

Rounding up to a 4. This one is a little too long but it has a lot of bangers

Enjoyed this

This was a fun listen, enjoyed it

Would get this on vinyl

Sorry mom

This is a classic

No thats okay

Fun

This genre of country is so fun and campy. Much preferred over the 'check out my truck and beer and hot sister' version of country today. Although both are still a little... ya know... Not in a bad way, its just... Take old country. These guys arent actual cowboys, right? They have so many songs about being a cowboy as if they were living in an old western. But like... they werent... Im just saying its pretty 'theater kid' to get really obsessed with basically a period piece type of content in a way that it becomes your whole personality. Dont get me wrong, its great music. New country is worse. Bunch of dudes living in the suburbs pretending they have hard lives because they just want to drink beer play with their lil trucks and wear their cute lil cowboy boots. Just kiss each other already geez. Anyway... Waylon + Willie 4 life <3

I really like disc 1 of this album. So many classics and a real showcase of all of the prime material George was holding onto in those final years as a Beatle. Most of disc 1 + all things must pass from disc 2 a 5/5 for me. But... Everything else is a 2/5 to a 3/5. There is soooo much filler and random tracks that the album really stalls out for me.

IM KIND OF INTO THIS TODAY

Love it

Damn hippies

Good album really shoots its shot in the first half then tapers out

ENJOYED THIS

Easy listen

I want this on vinyl its great

bit repetitive, nothing revolutionary

couple of great songs, repetitive after that.

Fun listen

High highs and low lows

okay bob

One of their best

ITS A BIT MUCH AFTER A WHILE

this is a GREAT album anyone who rates this a one is CRAY CRAY (mom)

Few bangers got kind of repetitive after a bit

low key a bop what do you want from me

rod just not my boi but this was okay

I cant do this again with mr slim

absolute BANGER my dudes

It was fine idk

Lot of great hits but also repetitive

Really not my thing atm

yacht rock ftw

This is healing me rn

ngl this is a bop

I like a lot of sam cooke, but not really a fan of this live album

I liked this one, didnt get too old for me which is rare for live albums
