1001 Albums Summary

-Listened on Spotify which is missing three songs -Songs are too long for my terrible westerner ears -"Un Ke Dar Pen Pohchne to Payen" is probably my favorite off the album

- Radiohead blindspot for me but just as good as lots of their other stuff. - "Go to Sleep" was my fav track

Probably one of those things that were super influential when it came out but is just okay now. No need for the album art to be so hard for the barber shop quartet. Fav track: Feel Flows or A Day in the Life of a Tree

- Horns in this are unreal. Too funky too exist. -Fav tracks: "So You're Leaving" and "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart"

-Around the World is my favorite chili peppers song and is an absolute banger way to start the album - liked Emit Remmus stood out more than on previous listens.

Has its funky moments, dont think i want to hear about mass shootings in my pop album interludes - Fav track: "Black Cat" - Honorable Mention: "Lonely" very specific vibe i'm nostalgic for.

no surprises, a masterpiece

- just the worst shit. i'm so glad rap isnt still like this

-fav track: In the Kingdom #19

Fav Track: Bluish

Not my favorite Wu Tang but still great Fav Tracks: Back Like That, Jellyfish

I was already a Gorillaz fan by the first time I got to this album and remember being pretty dismissive of it but really enjoyed it as a non shitty teen. lots of fun noisy shit going on. Fav tracks: "Country Sad Ballad Man", "Death of a Party", and "Chinese Bombs"

Effortless talent. one of a kind voice

didnt finish. all sounds too similar to Eileen

-Didnt realize that this was all bangers. heard most of it individually but had no idea they were all at the beginning -Planet Caravan is criminally underrated

lots of range, vocal style all over the place but all pretty decent.

catchier than i thought it would be but not catchy enough -fav track other than the hits: "Thinkin' About You"

always blows my mind how many samples are pulled from the beastie boys. just real cool scratchy punk rock rap, no wonder they inspired so many people

Pretty good early punk rock album. Probably woulda blown my mind if i hadnt already heard most of what it inspired. Bass guitar is great. Fav tracks- "Safety in Numbers" and "On Wheels"

Like where this is going and you can really see their potential but this is too british

not bad, just not my bag. "I Shall Be Free" and "Blowin in the Wind" are favs

Just too damn long. lots of good individual parts here but theyre all found randomly 8+ min into each song. Fav track: Spanish Key

Fav tracks: "Cant You Hear Me Knocking" and "Bitch"

the okayest dad rock

love the guys voice but all this sounds the same and is boring to my modern ears

Never been a big fan of any Smiths albums. dont know why only individual songs work for me. the rest just feels like mid tier filler

Not bad, especially instrumentally, but god dang some of this is pretty corny

Joni Mitchell never really did it for me but after this, I finally get it. Favs: "Raised on Robbery"

Blind spot in the 90s rock cannon for me. not too shabby. fav tracks: "Freedom Rock", "Space is Gonna do me Good"

a classic

Pretty different sound but not enough going on

has its vibey parts but not enough.

fav tracks: "Vampire Blues" and "Motion Pictures (For Carrie)"

Theyll never make me hate you "Self Esteem"

Fav tracks: "Operator" and "Truckin'"

kinda all over the place but a good blend of a lot of shit that I like. will def relisten. fav tracks: "Kowalski" , "Long Life", "Trainspotting" wish i could give it a 4.5.

fav tracks: "10th Avenue Freeze Out" and "Born to Run" The sax really ties this all together. *chef's kiss*

Fav Tracks: "Southern Man" and "Don't Let It Bring You Down"

Very laid back, chill, all blends together but i aint mad. just a little too long Fav tracks: "12 Bar", "Adella", and "Signing Off"

clown music. didnt finish

Banger after Banger.

pretty neato from a historical perspective, glad we figured out to make the bass way better though

honestly that opening caught me off guard and was distracted ever since

really drops off after that first track

By no means bad but just cant get to the highs that some of the earlier stuff reaches. Still love "Family Affair" tho

what a voice. other than the super popular hits, i'm a big fan of "I'll Be Waiting"

Really funky stuff. Rated extra high because this was not even close to being on my radar before this. Really dig this. Fav tracks: "Big Muff", "Dealer", "Small Hours"

oui oui fav track: "les plat pays"

Still remember the first time I heard "Black Dog". Still rocks

Wish it were angrier

Not bad, just kinda boring

A folksy / blues / rock n roll aesthetic I really dig. Kinda all blends together but I aint mad to spend an hour here. fav tracks: "Bell Bottom Blues" and "Tell the Truth"

beer drankin tunes. love the vibes fav tracks: "Guitar Man Upstairs" and "Zip City"

just went on too long

Guitar is pretty good but just couldnt vibe with the rest

Was honestly expecting to not like this cause i'm not much of a metal head and dont really imagine Brazil as a place that screams "metal" but boy was I wrong. really dig all the indigenous mixing and the drums and everything really worked for me. very pleasantly surprised: fav tracks: "Roots Bloody Roots", "Born Stubborn" and "Ambush"

boring

reminded me of highschool (derogatory) this never was my fav metallica

thought i was being pranked

Caveman's death grips

even better than i remembered

definitely pretty mixed on a lot of these but when it works it works. drums and bass are incredible

Cult leader vibes for sure fav tracks: "Hiding All Away", "O Children"

YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO EARLY 00S INDIE ALTERNATIVE

didnt finish. def not for me

Really slow start but end makes it worth it

too metallica

Rapping varies a lot song to song but the beats and scratching are always dope. fav tracks: "Real Raw", "Bear Witness", "A Visit to the Gynecologist" (The drums in particular on this one are crazy)

hate the cure. i liked the very end of this because it doesnt sound like the cure

pretty dancy

"Your Dictionary" may be one of the worst songs I've ever heard

didnt finish. not for me

Classic classic rock

fav tracks: "Shangri-La", "Nothing to Say", "Mr Churchill Says"

fav tracks: "I feel like $100" and "Welcome to the Afterfuture"

renaissance fair ass music

most of it wasnt on spotify so i only got to listen to a portion. just not for me.

i'll admit that i was annoyed i couldnt listen to this on spotify but the beats and vibes are undeniable. Black Woman rocks

the best vibes. really dug "High Tide Or Low Tide - Jamaican Version" and "Stir It Up"

some good stuff in here but mostly meandering nonsense fav track: "Maryan"

Fav tracks: "Houses of Holy" and "Down by the Seaside"

always preferred Ill Communication but its had to argue with the hits here

a funk epic fav tracks: "Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis Enema Squad (The Doo Doo Chasers)", "P.E. Squad/Doo Doo Chasers", and "Lunchmeataphobia (Think! It Ain't Illegal Yet!)"

"Robots" soundtrack jumpscare got me right out the gate. about as good as that movie

really dig this brand of late 90s / early 00s electronic music. Very cool concept and execution

Too close to Dead Kennedy's but not near as good

you are not immune to early 2000s indie & alternative

I'll admit that the first vocals I heard had me worried I was in for an hour of classic rock radio slop, but I was pleasantly mistaken. Still not 100% sold on the vocals but the instrumentation was too good to pass up

not bad, just not for me

its a cultural thing i guess

favs: "Speed and Sleep" and "Half Blast"

really couldnt get my arms around this one. felt like too much bullshit, not enough actual music
