1001 Albums Summary

Really enjoyed this one. Double listen!

I wish I was in a tavern when I was listening to this

There were a couple songs I liked, then stopped liking, then started liking again. Just a bit too long.

If Walk of Life or Money for Nothing was on this album, it might be a bump to 2 or 3 stars. Somehow felt longer than the Masekela album

Boreoncé

There’s a reason there’s just one well-known single from this album

Stupid ass

Kim Gordon once said that Lana Del Rey should kill herself once.

Sprawl II was good. 2 stars!

It all just bled together, I don’t think I could pinpoint a single song

I couldn’t stop kicking flipping when I listened to this

It’s fine, mysterious ways is a good enough for a 3 star

If I could give it a zero I would. It straight up ruined my day with how terrible it was.

Didn’t give me what I wanted

It’s time to put Bill Callahan away

Probably closer to a 4.5, just good jams

A fine Ladd

Hot take: I don’t care how influential music from the 70’s is if it’s garbage. This was painful.

Really Excellent Music Red Egg Man

One day in the studio, an engineer complete messed up the mix and called it a new genre and tricked people into thinking it’s good. This album, like all shoegaze and shoegaze adjacent albums, is terrible.

You know, Serge, you're what the French call "les incompetents"

It’s always a little concerning when a “known” band comes up - is it going to be an oasis situation or a Franz situation? This shit ruled. I expected it to and was happy to be correct. 9 awesome songs. It made me sad to be alive because it means I’m not good.

Very neutral on this, as three as they come

I had hopes that a-ha would prove to me more than a one-hit wonder after the second song. Then the rest of the album played.

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Mr Brightside remains the GOAT song of the 21st century

It’s crazy how much better FutureSex/LoveSounds is than this generic, soulless R&B trash is.

This coward didn’t call any of her albums “dude you’re getting” so automatic 1 star

Jesse Lacey was full of shit, it’s fine to criticize Morrissey

I was between a 1 and 2 for this one but I’ll give it the star for having some brevity. Didn’t really hate it but didn’t really like it.

Better than Creep but I still don’t get Radiohead

What a ripper. I only knew the singles but liked the whole album. It’s kind of sad when iconic singles have defined a band rather than a whole album.

This one could have used some more time….in utero

I didn’t love this album but it’s exactly what I wanted from this list - an album full of songs that I’ve never heard from a band I’ve never even heard of.

Even worse than I thought it would be

Overall pretty good, definitely more good songs but don’t you want me is a classic and the rest of the album didn’t reach that height

What a mistake to put Good Vibrations on this album to remind the listener of what was. It’s certainly made me appreciate every “genius” musician that died young.

Hopefully the worst Bowie album on this list. Very 3 star

This album is responsible for my favorite joke on a podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9JUAu_v4rA&pp=0gcJCfwAo7VqN5tD

Totally neutral on this. I like Paranoid but nothing else is good or bad.

I think that I’ve always disliked Hotel California enough to discount the Eagles entirely but this was better than I was expecting, I might even be willing to so that I liked it.

Left me snorin

Let’s have an album party

I don’t like “I want you to want me” enough to knock this down to a 3. If it had Dream Police instead, it gets a 4

Never been a Jack White or White Stripes fan, still am not after listening to this album. The whole early 2000’s garage/indie rock era was never for me (except Franz Ferdinand after hearing it in this list).

A nice jazz album that didn’t overstay its welcome.

I have soft spot for 90’s dance so I was excited to see this pop up but I really wish every song was about a minute shorter, could have bumped it to a 5.

I liked this album a lot, I don’t really listen to much electronic music. I do have to wonder what exactly sets this album apart from the countless other electronic music but I’m not complaining.

I went in with an open mind, not having heard much Bob Dylan and hoping for the best. I did not get the best - it was worse than I could have thought.

Any album with with a song bragging about a massive song is going to get a bonus star. I think it’s kinda popular to not like Aerosmith but it’s a fun album. The singles are timeless for a reason.

The highs are high and the lows are also fine. I’m not sure if I like Bowie or not yet.

This is a weird one - I I liked all the songs individually but by the time I finished, I realized I didn’t really like the album.

Pretty whatever. Didn’t hate it

I haven’t been sleeping well and the first thing I do in the morning is listen to these albums so when I say it felt like a fever dream, it has nothing to do with the music and more my state of mind.

1 ok song. Black Skinhead has a different context in 2025

Just terrible shit. I don’t care if they heavily influenced an entire genre when they bands they influenced are a million times better

I think if this album came out 3 years earlier, it would have been big. Unfortunately, it’s just a worse version of MGMT with everything else bad about indie-electronic pop of the time. Foster the People’s debut album isn’t on this god-awful list but this random-ass, no impact having, generic album is?

I am not a Beatles Boy but I recognize that A Day in The Life might be the greatest song ever written. This is a perfect album and it’s a shame that we have ever other Beatles album on this list instead of just having one to truly appreciate.

Rats off to you Zappa in the crappa PaZappa the Rappa

Knew I’d like it from the first note. Shame Oasis is the famous 90’s band from the UK

I always knew LL Cool J but never had any idea what his music was like. Never in a million years would I have guessed he was the Mama Said Knock You Out guy. Every song was too long and some were really annoying but overall I still enjoyed it.

It’s no NWA

What a waste of time. Nothing interesting, just monotonous, generic electronic that feels a decade too late.

I don’t think any songs really stuck out other than the three I’ve heard hundreds of times but those three songs are enough to give the album a 4

8 minute songs are as bad as hour long albums. Hated this

I wish more bands went wild with musical concept albums while retaining their sound. Doesn’t make me want to watch the movie but was a fun listen.

Everything people think is bad about 90’s music is this album

Boob Dylan

Why did every song have to be so long? Why is this album on the list? Is this going to turn out to be some kind of joke where at the end we get a message laughing how we wasted years doing this? Needs more footwerk

Would have been a 3 if the production was better. I can’t comprehend the thought process of not boosting the vocals on a hip hop album .

Boring as hell.

Toys in the Attic was way better, this does not belong on any lists

It’s gotta be tough for a band when your biggest hit is a cover song, which begs the questions of why is this album on the list? I was also wondering the other day of who was ever influenced by Aerosmith, I think I found the answer.

I think I’m not a Bowie guy. RIP my fandom

It’s great to have an album on the list that I already listen to a few times a year. I’m counting this is as a ska album on the list

This is just too corny to be appreciated

This album is fine. It’s got its place in history but it’s like a lot of other influential albums - just not as good as what comes after.

There’s a couple stinkers and the skits are awful as usual but it’s still one of my favorites. I was going to give it a 4 but the R-rated LFO parrot in Marshall Mathers gets it to 5.

First song was good, everything else was pretty forgettable to bad

There better be another Queens of the Stone Age album on this list because this one sucked and I know there are good QOTSA songs

Interesting enough for me to not hate it, not good enough for me to like it

Much better solo offering than Ice Cube

I think when people say that the Beatles suck, they are talking about this album.

Jazz is too hard to review.

I liked the other Smiths album more

Better than the other Bowie slop we’ve gotten but I think I’m firmly not a Bowie guy

Feels like god is pranking me whenever we get some bullshit like this. There’s nothing on this album justifying it on this list nor it being on any list of any kind.

2 1/2. Didn’t totally hate it but I’ll never be excited to hear anything from it

Right about now The guns in my mouth

Did I finish this? Absolutely not. Did I hate what I did listen? Not entirely. Does this kind of trash belong on a list of albums that you should listen to before you die? Only if you’re looking to rush to that day

Pretty boring but that’s expected from Metallica

Not all seeds need to grow into flowers, not all things in caves need to see the sun

More instrumental like this please I now know why there’s a Count Basie theater in Red Bank

I’d never listened to a full Led Zeppelin album before. It’s not like it was bad but they are kind of in the same realm as Bowie or The Beatles to me, obviously talented and influential but I don’t care at all.

Too much funk for me, not enough fun

I liked the first half more than the second.

A real rock n roll album. My favorite part is the satanic song having very nice, melodic guitars

I’m a little less than neutral on this one but it didn’t have any songs that really hooked me. I’m also considering it a ska album because of the upbeats in one of the last songs

Didn’t need another White Stripe album on this list. It’s actually starting to annoy me how many repeat artists there are.

Don’t care for soulful R&B

I don’t know what it is, Green Day should be a band I love but I’ve always strongly disliked. Maybe it’s the voice, maybe it’s the deep seated trauma of them being constantly on repeat during my first job - this album lives up to its name.

I didn’t miss out on anything by ignoring Led Zeppelin my whole life

I don’t really have anything else to say about Led Zeppelin that I haven’t said about the other albums. I probably would have liked this one a little more if we were getting slammed with all LZ albums at once.

Will probably never listen again but I liked it. It reminded me of music that would be in a kids movie

Didn’t do it for me

Awful

Banging bongos

Feel bad about giving it a 2 stars because I didn’t exactly dislike it but I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. Has no business being on any lists of any albums though

Felt like the potential to be good was there, just came short

This “album” doesn’t belong on the list but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t strutting around the house, slapping everything I saw

This guy stinks

Nothing stood out, pretty repetitive

I’d never heard most of these songs. Definitely not as good as other Iron Maiden stuff but after the last few days, it was a good listen. Bruce Dickinson sang the national anthem at the Kings opening game this year - neat

I think this band would have been a bigger part of my life it they had a song on Tony Hawk

Oh it’s the 70’s version of “Vs the Floating Eye of Death”

Of the 2 minutes I listened, probably the best of Dylan shit that’s been forced into our ears.

Make every album less than 20 minutes! I’m surprised they put Circle Jerks on this list when the real circle jerk is all of the reviews on the Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen albums .

Babylon brings back memories of scrubbing dog shit off floors listening to radio that could only get one station that loved to play the same 5 songs on repeat. The rest of the album made me wish I was listening to Babylon.

Probably closer to a 3 but liked it more than I expected. Jack Antoff is a good producer

Didn’t expect to like this one but loved the vibes (even though I felt like you could start singing smooth operator during most of the songs and it would fit)

My patience is being tested

Enjoyed this for what it was but Wong be revisiting

Probably a 2.5. Much better than the last Arcade Fire album.

Didn’t hate Bruce Springtwang but it did sound like AI music from the 80’s.

Liked it. Perfect review

This pedophile sure can jam

I’m not the biggest Pixies fan and I know we’ve talked about influential bands being on this list for the sake of them being influential but this album rocks.

The only cheap thrills were the rush I got when it was done

Kinda forgettable outside of the two songs that no one will ever forget.

I was so worried that Billy Corrgan was born as an adult but thank god he let us know he used to be a little boy.

Garbage 60’s music that should be erased from history

What a waste of time

I think having a good voice is the single least impressive characteristic a person can have.

AC/DC is perfect for 30 second segments in movies and video games but terrible for 45 minutes of garbage rock

Couldn’t finish a single song on this. Maybe I just wasn’t in the right headspace

Just because Brian Wilson exists doesn’t mean everything he ever did needs to be on this list.

A prog album under 40 minutes!

Did I like it? YES

Apple Music will just automatically start playing songs when an album is over. I knew the album was over when I got some songs I’d never heard but liked more than the album I just listened to. Is the editor of this book British? This is such a nothing band and a nothing album.

It’s not bad but I don’t get it. People speak about Radiohead like they are one of the top 10 bands of all time but I’m also not sure I’ve ever met anyone passionate about Radiohead.

This confirmed that Wilco is just a shitty band that writers like to reference as some “hip” thing. Truly a waste of my time and energy.

Probably the first “influential” artist that I liked

Guide a laser into my eardrums

Why no white keys? “This is an album by The “wish we were” Black Keys. The name of this album is “ Bad Blues” Brothers.“

This is not the album that suddenly changed my brain into liking country. It just reinforced how much I don’t.

Probably the best album we’ve had on this godforsaken endeavor.

Lost a star because of how many interludes (terrible skits) there were. Got it back because the beats in Snappin’ and Trappin’ reminded me of Earthbound

Bob Marley wouldn’t get his toe amputated to save his life. Luckily he saved us from more Bob Marley songs.

How did Frank Sinatra ever maintain a hard” persona after releasing any of his music? This was chill and I couldn’t moving my hips.

Poopenture by The Turddids Not the worst we’ve had but one of those albums that has no business being in this list

It’s fine but knowing that Graceland is probably on this list it seems like a waste of time

I knew Fairytale of New York but I wasn’t expecting Flogging Molly’s entire schtick to have been lifted. I also love the brutal title when it’s really just music from The Shire

If every song was two and a half minutes, this would easily be a 5 star.

Sounds like one of those songs in Rock Band that you just assume is by one of the developers shitty garage bands. “Come together” is probably the horniest song we’ve had on this list yet.

The Black Keys are so annoyed they aren’t Otis

I like Highway Star and Space Truckin but dislike Smoke on the Water enough to knock it down a star.

I’m officially signing off from reggae. I know it’s the backbone to ska but I don’t care, it all sucks - except Ras Trent

It seems like Queen could have veered off into a different kinda of band than what they did. This album seems to be their fork in the road.

The evolution of country music to what the modern version is weird Listening to this on a train in Japan was weirder.

90’s rock has a nostalgia factor while also being forgettable. This is the epitome of that.

Not my thing but not too bad. Probably didn’t give it the attention it deserves. More importantly, “worldwide” isn’t a genre and Apple Music is just lazy and racist

Who gives a shit?

I think “Photograph” is a great song. The rest of the album is just ok.

The British have never done anything worthwhile with music

Very impressive to write a bunch of 30 second songs and just repeat them for a long time

One time there was an emo night in Santa Clarita. War was playing the same venue. They closed with a 15 minute rendition of Low-Rider. This album sucked.

How long did I need to give this one a review?

This guy is the 2nd worst Drake

Can you believe someone broke up with this genius?!

Mostly one note but we’ve had worse notess

Not what I was expecting at all. Enjoyed the early 90’s pop

I can’t believe people failed to put them down

Liked the vibe more than the songs

https://youtu.be/I79YNDYrUno?si=rBC3ZrtI1ueVNtZ8

Love me some satanic panic circus music

If an album is on rock band, it should get a 5 star

I was bummed when I saw the genre was “funk” but this was moderately better than I was expecting. Still pretty bad though.

Great, now call me Al will be stuck in my head all week!

British punk is the worst punk

There’s moments where I almost connected with this album.

There are certain bands that everyone knows from their big hits. They should stay that way.

It’s repetitive but there are far worse repetitive albums. I wish more artists would have orchestra’s backing them.

Just one song I didn’t like. Diving into the Wikipedia’s of the Furious Five was fun

Didn’t over stay its welcome

20 minutes of a good album and an hour of just grating nonsense.

More like badly written music huehuehuehueh

An impression of Morrissey on November 4, 2008: “Shit!” Why is this album on the list?

I don’t like Christmas music, even when it’s produced by a murderer.

Excellent song - not as excellent album

The essence of ABBA without the overplayed hits of ABBA

There’s not a lot of middle ground in grunge. There were moments I thought I was starting to like it but they quickly faded

Every day we get a singer songwriter my hatred for Dylan and Cohen grows

I never listened to any Clash because Should I Stay or Should I go is terrible so this was a nice surprise.

Space mountain without the fun

I don’t really know why any other classic rock bands even tried after this came out. Boston perfected the sound on the first try.

I get why Linkin Park was so popular but it’s corny and repetitive. There’s nothing wrong with being corny and repetitive though.

I’m not sure how I made it this far knowing who Rod Stewart is but never hearing a single second of his music until now. It’s pretty good. Much better than what I would have thought

I’ll give the run time a break since it’s a double album. Good stuff, shame this is the only ELO album on the list.

The best Bob Dylan on the list

The sound and style is undeniable but the songs just aren’t for me

Made me laugh, Apple’s animated album art made me laugh too.

I misread this as Dr Jones at first so I when I was done I put on Aqua’s Aquarium. That gets a 5/5 and probably isn’t on this list. Anyway, Dr John violates the Hippocratic Oath for 33 minutes.

Started ok but I kinda tapped out around the half-way mark.

If I had been a SOAD fan, I’m assuming this is the one I would have considered my favorite. Manic energy that more bands need.

I don’t get it. I didn’t dislike it but what’s this album doing on this list. It’s not even Ghostface Killah’s best album.

Skipped the singles, liked it fine

I assume there are hundreds of bands from the 90’s that have a similar sound. That’s not a complaint.

What a weird one. It’s not terrible but 24 hours later I don’t really remember anything about it.

Turned it off after about 45 minutes. What a slog

This just hits different knowing that our country is being run by a PYSCHO KIILER

The whole album isn’t as good as the song Magic Chicken by The Aquabats but when you think about it, very few albums are.

The 2nd best use of a firehouse in 1989. It would take a lot to dethrone Joel Miller getting to drink from the firehouse for finding the marble in the oatmeal on Stanley Spadowski’s Clubhouse.

Each song was good for 4 minutes.

I find British hip-hop/wrap to be incredibly grating, even when they are talented.

I’m so tired of these terrible British bands being on this list. The sun should permanently set on this fucks.

I wonder if any singer/songwriters have ever been either of those things?

Imagine my surprise when I learned that Green Onion wasn’t just part of the Sandlot score.

Made me jealous of the people on the Hindenburg. Led Zeppelin could never resonate with me

One of those bands that made a giant cultural impact that just leaves me scratching my head. I guess the drugs were the key to all of those people who made Grateful Dead their life.

rub her hole? Gross Ringo

The seeds are bad alright

One of the better random, nothing British bands that seem to make up 1/3 of this list but still a random, nothing British band.

Psychedelic rock is up there with singer/songwriters in genres that make me want to be deaf

A breath of fresh air among the rest of the singer/songwriter trash AND he’s English?!?

What a let down compared to the last Nick Drake album, especially since this guy was doing a tribute

Really liked it until the title track

A few standouts but overall just a little too long for my cracker ass

One ok song isn’t saving this. The most impressive part is that I know who Eric Clapton is without knowing this “band”

Can’t make a country boy outta this city slicker

This was maybe the weirdest album we’ve had on the list yet. It’s a British (duh) band I’ve never heard of (not surprising) that somehow traveled 10 years into the future and returned to make a single album that captured every pop song sound from 81-91. The only problem is there was nothing that stood out as exceptional.

Will I seek out more Janelle Monae? Probably not but this certainly made an impact on my day

“It’s too late to stop now” is how I feel every time we get another shitty 60/70’s guy, let alone a live album from a 60/70’s shitty guy. Brown Eye Swirl

I don’t really care about Jane’s Addiction but David Nevarro was great in the Dunngeon

Why did Neil Young refuse to play "On the Beach" while streaming Death Stranding? Because he'd already spent 1974 slowly trudging through a bleak, post-apocalyptic emotional wasteland, sucking the life out of everything like a vampire bluesman, delivering nothing but depressing cargo to ghost towns—and Kojima's game felt way too much like a sequel he never signed up for. "I'm a vampire, babe... already did the beach, man. Pass." 🧛‍♂️🏖️

🍫🔥😩🍆💦

Live albums are for fans, there’s not a single live album that should be on a list of must-listen to albums. This one was fine.

What is this? 1001 albums you should hear when you’re horny?!

This list should stop it’s messing around and give us more ska.

Not everything The Beatles did needs to be treated with reverence.

I went in biased because I saw the little blurb on Apple Music refer to this as The Velvet Underground’s noise album. My fears were confirmed. Absolute garbage.

I gotta hand it to this album, the sound quality was great. Too bad it’s just another shitty live album.

Finally, an influential album that’s as good as the albums it influenced

The 2nd half kinda tapers out but it’s still a great experience

It’s pretty annoying that streaming services don’t have the original albums available. I don’t want or need extended versions of albums I’m listening to for the first time. Apple Music can póg mo thóin

If you don't beat your meat, you can't have any pussy

Shit sucks

My wife asked if I’d rather hear this or Hobo Johnson. I had to think about it

People paid money to watch these guys play the same riff over and over. I bet the Allwoman Sisters Band would be less annoying

I know this is rated as one of the best albums ever by people who make those kind of lists but I just thought it was fine. Needed a song about cars.

1001 is a big number but I don’t think that the team behind this list would be able to justify 2 ZZ Top albums. Between the 2, this is the better one if only because of the lyrics “she’s got legs, she knows how to use them.”

I don’t know how to judge Queen. They are so wildly overplayed that I go in with a mindset of “ugh” even if there is only one song I’ve heard before. So far, I’m not sure they have an album that needs to be on this list even though their absence would be weird.

Never listened to Elliot Smith, just knew he stabbed himself twice in the heart. Not what was expecting and not my thing but I appreciate another singer/songwriter putting Dylan and Cohen to shame.

I decided that I don’t really like David Bowie so not surprised that I don’t like Temu David Bowie either

Not bad but left no impact on me. Woke up this morning and didn’t have a single memory of listening to this one

I get The Verve and The Verve Pipe confused. I shut this album off about halfway through and listened to Mustard Plug’s cover of “The Freshman” by the Verve Pipe instead.

Hey now you’re an all sitar

British music needs to be wiped off the map

Dawn of the Dreads should have been as big as Straight Outta Compton

We should have known. The album cover invokes MAGA.

My previous review was a joke: this is my favorite 90’s rap/hip-hop album. One of the few that’s in my yearly rotation. BUT THERES ALWAYS ROOMS FOR JOKES Ice Cube is more likely to star in “A CAB” than protest police these days!

Freak on a leash is good but the rest of it was not. Nu-metal has the reputation it deserves

Not every song was great but there’s nothing wrong with a little bald boy techno. There is something wrong with the only version available being the 2 hour version with b-sides. Streaming has really killed albums.

I liked about half the songs. Thought about knocking it down to a 2 since they didn’t mic the spoons properly.

Thought this one was pretty boring but I love Man on The Moon so I’ll give it a bonus star

I don’t hate Taylor Swift but I certainly hate the Boob Dylan version of her

Didn’t really have the impact I thought it would. Pretty cool that there’s 1001 albums on this list and they keep throwing in the same genre/years in a short time span >:(

If weird al gets a shout out, you get an extra star

This was a horrible listen. Shame a great band name was wasted on this one

I was pretty excited when the first track had the PlayStation start up sound but then the album started. I don’t think I’ve missed much by skipping almost all pop music since 2010

When this started, I was pretty annoyed by this dude doing a bad 60’s/70’s album but by the end, I was kinda liking it. I’m as shocked as anyone

This list is just an British prank to be played on Americans

Seems like this album is on the list simply because of Respect, especially since there is another Aretha Franklin album coming. I can’t respect that.

Probably 3.5. I liked it, I’m not going to go out of my way to listen to more Blur though

I don’t have much to say about the album in general, it was fine. I just can’t believe that there are two more from this artist on the list.

Another fine album that I’ll never listen to again

I liked it more than I thought I would but I still don’t understand the reverence that Radiohead is given

I listen to these albums first thing in the morning and write the review about 24 hours later. In that short amount of time I’ve basically forgotten this album existed.

Quite a random, nothing album but I didn’t mind it.

Elton John can write good songs but when they are spread out on an other wise terrible album, you gotta wonder if he just got lucky a few times. That Jamaica song was an abomination.

This is a tough one, it felt like this 43 minutes lasted a lifetime. Not bad at all but just kept going and going.

Ozzy did a lot of the same vocal cadence on this one that was fun to make fun of.

Felt like a real bait and switch the longer the album went on

At least I had waffles with whipped cream this morning

I don’t think anyone could justify this album being on a list of 10,000.

Didn’t like it as much as the last Talking Heads album

I think we’ve had other Nick Drake albums, that’s the impact this had on me. Better than Dylan and Cohen still.

Pretty repetitive but not in a bad way

Blue Chew’s favorite album

Nothing especially stood out but it wasn’t bad.

Dude you’re still not getting

Would rather have gotten some Blood Brothers but this was ok.

One week before the 1001 Album deadline “Oh shit we have 800 British shit bands! What do we do?!” “Here’s some African chant/gospel, that probably counts for 10 non-British bands. Just pick any of their albums, the most exotic name the better!”

Needed to crank the horny 11

If this was instrumental, it probably could have gotten a 4

I thought I was going to enjoy this more based on the first song but it kinda fell apart the longer it went on. Almost gave it a bonus star for being better than the shitty British 90’s bands we’ve been forced to listen to on this endless quest to reinforce that personal music taste is far more meaningful than any type of list of “best albums”

No All That theme song? Who cares?!

Sorry Fats.

This is good leisurely bike riding music

Classic music for an 80’s movie where our lovable loser hero is riding a bike

Nothing like an album that makes you want to steer your bike into oncoming traffic

Anytime I’ve told anyone I don’t like Radiohead, the response is “oh well Creep is like their worst song.” Radiohead is to music like the movie Radio is to cinema

I don’t know if it’s because I’m on vacation in a topical area or if because I’ve seen too many dirt mustache teens in denim vest who clearly have listened to Pantera with the patch still proudly displayed but I couldn’t bring myself to care. Walk is good though.

I don’t support pet shops

I think every live album or even every concert should start with someone imploring the crowd to be normal

Didn’t leave any impact

I need to start writing these reviews as soon as I’m done listening instead of the next day. I don’t remember much but I enjoyed it.

This is what Arnold would play in his room when he got into high school.

NO WONDER HE CANT IT, THE STREETS NEED SOME DAMN NAMES!!

I’m not that familiar with The Arctic Monkeys but this seems like a spinoff doing the same thing as the main band. It’s a pretty easy listen though

My least favorite type of music from the late 2000’s.

Boring Boys

Interesting to learn that this album is referred to as The Brown Album.

Put em on the cross

These Eagles are on the exSTINK list

Talking Heads should have been playing as much as any other band on the radio for decades.

High highs but overall pretty forgettable

It’s unfathomable that a list this short, given the grand scheme of music, feels the need to not only include multiple funk albums but multiple from the same artist? Please let this have been the last one

I went a long time only hearing a couple of Gorillaz songs. I could have gone longer

There was a good album in there somewhere

Has a song ever do as much damage to a band as “Should I Stay or Should I Go?” Has done to my feelings about The Clash in general? Such a shame that one of the worlds worst songs is forever tied to one of the great punk bands of the 70’s.

Psh more like Puppets of Napsters!

I enjoyed about a 1/4 of it. We all know the true greatest “what’s going on” song

Oh Susannah was a low point on this list.

I liked this more than most of the soul/r&b on this list but as she said in the album, this isn’t for me

The editor of this list is one lazy piece of shit. Absolutely no justification for another Radiohead album to be here .

I think I liked the feeling of the album more than the album.

My favorite of the Monstars was Gang

Who they influenced is better than anything they did but this wasn’t bad

Am I ever going to listen to the Pixies regularly? Naw. Does this still rule? Yup

I believe that recent “best ever” lists have this at #1 and I totally understand why that would be the case. However, I’m not a black woman so this meant nothing to me.

Some good stuff in here. Probably not enough to justify it on this list but a nice change of pace.

Significantly better than the Beck album about getting dumped but 3 stars is where Beck will always peak

Van Morrison perfected a signature sound. I don’t want to hear it more than once

“One Way Or Another” is up there with my least favorite songs so gotta dock a star

Just the worst

90’s Adele

Did it like it? The band name!

I have no connection with The Rolling Stones other than them being overused in movies and trailers. This album didn’t change any of the totally neutral feeling I have towards them.

I’ll always remember the infomercial for the Paul McCartney and Wings box set

If this was 45 minute, easily a 5 star.

70’s bro music

Maybe closer to a 3.5, that hanky panky song was a real low point

This alone should take The Beatles out of the greatest band discussion. I think the worst part of the age of digital music is we can’t play Revolution 9 backwards on Spotify

I enjoyed this one more than expected.

Couldn’t make it through the first song

An enjoyable listen under the influence of some Jesus Juice and sleeping pills

I think the world is far too kind to Bowie and the type of trash he brought into the world of music

Baby’s first corporate-backed, surface level attempt at being political punk. Your least favorite soccer mom’s favorite punk band. No place on this list or any list of best albums.

For some reason, Apple Music has this as a double album. I’m glad I checked the Wikipedia as to not suffer for another half hour. I particularly enjoyed that both of the albums that they tried to pair together were total failures. Great list we got going on here.

Shame that Hallelujah brings the album down.

Enjoyed the vibe but it could have been much much better. I’ll never look at booty calls the same way again

I don’t think this guy has ever seen a movie

I can’t decide if it’s a 2 or a 4 so I’m just sticking it in the middle. I think I ultimately just like the one Joy Division song that’s not on this album but didn’t hate this

Would’ve been a four if not for the first and last tracks. I almost gave up before it started.

There was a moment where it felt like I was listening to a song on the Katamari Damacy soundtrack so it gets a bonus star

It’s incredibly dumb to have this album and Ray of Light on the list. Pick one you lazy editor!

I can’t say I still fully understand Oasis’ popularity in the UK but this made me get it a little more

3.5. It’s not like I’m going to go out of my way to listen to more Tori Amos but I enjoyed it

I wish these fuckers would grow some moss

I wonder how much their catalog remains popular because of the smashing success of the A*Teens

A couple standouts but overall pretty unenjoyable. I laughed at the cover of Imagine

I couldn’t find this album streaming anywhere but I did listen to a different one by the Pakistani Scatman

NAME A WORD THAT STARTS WITH PORK UPINE! Family Feud

Maybe that teacher he was talking about had the right idea all along….

I don’t like you get to be The Tonight Show band and pretend your hard

Guess I’m anti-woke cuz I hate this DEI

There better not be more than 1 foo fighter album on this list….

35 minutes?! All songs good?!? They did it. An album worth listening to before you die

Jazz can often be sensual so it’s nice that Tom Waits was out there making it horny

If I ever want to freak myself out, I’m going to put this album on as I try to fall asleep. I see why Lynch was a fan

David Borie

Based on the sound, this has gotta be the most influential band/album for the Riot Grrl movement. Unfortunately, I’m a Little Rascal and a member of the He-Man Women Hater Club so I’m not allowed to like this
