way better than i would have ever anticipated

pretty good

cool electronic fusion type music

tough listen

janis joplin has such a unique voice

teenage riot!

had only listened to my girl before, rest of the album was honestly better why is that single so popular

he really was goated

the rest of the album is so forgettable i cant lie

sounds like millennial folk from 1992

did not do a full listen, its a vibe though

really dynamic stuff in this album, what a band

solid post punk album

interesting, so 2000's

fascinating album, just absolutely no frame of reference for this one

very 2000-2010s, its alright

funky album, has that freak song but also some bangers

classic beatles

great al green album

its alright

meh

mehhhhhh

hadn't really heard of these guys, cool stuff

great instrumentals

pretty good, sounds like jack johnson kinda or the other way around

bout as cookie cutter classic rock as it gets

classic

kinda one note but an okay one note

better than anticipated

so badly want to like this but it puts me to sleep

kinda great value oasis

some good instrumentals but his vocals are boring

so well made, i miss the old kanye

whole lot of classics

not my thing, not listening to all that

i respect metallica just never going to be my thing tbh

definitely one of if not their best

great stuff on here. i yearn for a modern revolutionary spirit that can hang with mr scott-heron’s work.

great songs on here and some less recognized, well made

really solid, i think there’s a diss track on here but i can’t remember who

classic coldplay songs on here

fascinating album, prog rock is so weird

fantastic little bossa nova jazz album

i <3 talking heada

maybe not my favorite beatles but cmon… it’s abbey road

good but often 1 note and the vegetarian anthem is kinda corny frankly

there’s a beautiful piece of piano randomly on this album. other then that, definitely showing its age. what’s a sex packet?

decent folky album

great debut album from iggy pop

holy shit

underwhelming

pretty fun punk album

cool album cover

very interesting flavor of british pop from this era, i see the potential

probably the best solo work of all the beetles post break up

i don’t know how to feel about this - kind of like sublime but doesn’t hit the same

great stuff, it’s a shame he peaked with this album

i gotta hand it to him, it’s funky

so dynamic on this

interesting rock fusion thing

feels like a snoop dog album too honestly

i just don’t care for metal sorry ozzy

great to hear another punk album

fantastic thematic unity between their sound and visual style but not very interesting music

going to graceland, graceland, i’m going to graceland, graceland, we’re going to graceland, graceland

miss when movie soundtrack albums used to be special and artistically motivated

like a decent but leaving more to be desired sequel of magical mystery tour

feels like an album made for the streaming age with all these short 1 minute songs

love how unpolished they sound on this

gosh she has a crazy voice

kinda drags sorry robert smith

great stuff man

fist norwegian album?

mid

honestly….a little more entertaining than metallica, still don’t like metal

timeless album fr, crazy how many songs on this have been readapted or remixed

very interesting psychedelic rock album, has a weird storyline

first dolly parton album, she is impressive

the quintessential 80s sound

very niche low budget bollywood movie soundtrack that’s surprisingly good, well rounded

a spiritual awakening in 4 acts

i respect its weirdness but i could never relisten to this

hard rock, metal, whatever, it’s fine. black hole sun

LA WOMAN! LA WOMAN!!!

didn’t listen to all of it but it was interesting, distinctly 90’s sound

such a complete album

cool album art

not as good as their other albums but it’s cool to hear pulp on here

the album art is fantastic. mr. gaye getting romantical on this one.

very solid bowie album!

very chill, distinct sound on this album compared to some of their biggest hits. feels very influential of modern folky pop

so excited to get this, the english-gibberish mix does wear on you in a full listen but instrumentally such an interesting project.

hearing closer takes me back to being 7 or 8 in my dads car, stale camel blue cigarette smoke smell lining the seats, after market stereo with flashing blue lights playing a burned CD, beautiful wretched nostalgia rest of the album is pretty good though

cool instrumentals mr bowie

very bloated but always interesting, classic punk sound

kinda interesting just not my type of music, she has a great voice

jdilla sampled this??? wtf

weird european stuff

favorite bob album, definitely hits the high notes of his folk era here in my frank and honest opinion

i really thought this was gonna be a thrash metal album, pleasantly surprised

mid, sorry

hey that’s pretty good

did not listen to the full 3 hours but gosh she had a wonderful voice, what a treat

no comments, meh

fascinating album given its timeframe. i feel like you could draw a direct line from this to sublime, seems like it’s very influential

love how the uk and us versions differ so dramatically, was cool to hear the UK

not bad

sounds very 80’s, a little dated

fairly basic electronica but that might be a naive take given its age. assuming it’s a very influential group?

the boys are back in town the boys are back in town the boys are back in tooooooown

mid

i liked this, great vibes. nice 70’s british pop.

my fucking goat right here

very pleasant listen

interesting era of british pop this is

i really want to like this more, i respect its influence, but man is it just boring for most of the album. some high highs but mostly slow and not very exciting

good, funky, jazzy. lots of instruments and such a diversity of sound

sometimes interesting instrumentals but often one note

certifiably not interested in metal

one of the best live albums i’ve listened to

boring as hell

never understood the grateful dead hype beyond good branding but this album is decent

merry christmas! fuck yeah

great stuff, thank you all holy 1001 list for introducing me to new jazz

i want to love the violent femmes but i really just like them, the album drags a little sometimes in being repetitive. hopefully future albums will be different.

love this album, joni popped off with this one

a little too long, solid album though. i like the pinball song

4 stars for needles in the camels eye and on some faraway beach. not a very coherent project for brian compared to his other stuff but that is sometimes a good thing

forerunners of the mid 2010s indie alternative movement, definitely not timeless

like the early boy bandy background vocals, christ these albums are too long

i totally judged a book by its cover (the art on this sucks), this was much better than expected

bangers throughout, can not fathom this was their debut. incredible stuff

decent debut, i see the vision of their future releases here. lots of silly/wonky stereo mixing work

no one does it like linkin park did, true early 2000’s stuff right here

boring

not bad, not too exciting. love the blues elements when they pop up

this was way more fun than i expected it to be ngl

of montreal wtf you doing here

hate getting excited at seeing an album labeled “alternative” and it turns out to just be an alternative to the lumineers

finally some good alternative stuff, great punky rock

every listen is a better experience. can’t believe we’re approaching 10 years on this masterpiece.

holds up really well, truly embodies the early 2000s punky pop rock stuff

instrumentally so impressive

mid as hell

perfect album

enjoyed this quite a bit, very 90’s electronica

i enjoy the synth pop, it’s so silly go lucky and feels quintessentially 80’s. didn’t know these guys do that don’t you want me song!

perfect album. the funky country stones are the best stones.

off brand oasis

fascinating album, has a bit of everything

twee ancestor

reminds me of my mom <3

made for a different time, a different audience

not bad

great hard hitting psychedelic rock!

sorry team i don’t really like his voice

wait is this coldplay?

inventor of rock!..?

sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS

not listening to modern country, not even giving it a chance

very interesting rock album from a band i was completely unfamiliar with, enjoyed it!

one of my favorite albums as of late, what a treat to get it on here <3

the harlem globetrotters of music

cuban jazz okayyyyyyyy

this cat has chops 🫰

very complete album, enjoyed the middle parts more than badlands for sure. bruce is growing on me i can’t lie.

love sinatra but this one doesn’t have a lot of depth

it’s alright

curtis does it different

all i can think about is that mid 2000’s elmo’s got a gun parody…never heard the original

very interesting album in bjorks discography

not bad

not really my style but i respect tina turner

van morrison! (live)

very substantive i like it

kind of weak relative to other kinks

solid ambient electronica stuff

i like this, good time

oasis-y (non derogatory), british pop had that sound locked down for awhile

okay i like enter sandman! i know that one!

yeah you can absolutely totally hear david bowie influence on this might as well be his album

it’s alright

i’d love to love oasis more they just have like one baseline sound most of the time

no more metal por favor

was not anticipating how diverse the songs on this album would be!

such an epic album man there’s nothing like it

my canadian king

9 years………

not bad

first blues album full listen? huh

kinda corny lol

carpenters were something else, so talented, what a joy to listen to

i’m sorry paul i love you but this shit was so mid

i love the organ it is a wonderful instrument

it’s alright

most interesting listen yet from this list. shows you what music can be and hints at what it should be. funky stuff.

prince is good at his job!!!

very high highs of course, solid album all around

listening at my desk at my job, the right venue clearly

nightswimminggggg

so 90s pop, thumpy, synthy, british, etc.

i had a fun time 😎

what a great album!

mid

this sucked

enjoyed this a little more than i expected but it was a little grating listening through in one sitting

sgt peppers lonely hearts club baaaaaaaaaand

i had a good time w this, kinda shoegazy riffs, a little one note though

no bueno

okay willie…

solid

some super not high but decent notes, kinda like a rollercoaster for kids where the climax is a tiny hill

it’s hard to hate the temptations

this is a definitional reference for dad rock

includes the greatest grocery store song ever created

pretty good, cool to see how they’ve evolved over time from this

kinda boring sorry bonnie

i love whiney depressing old country this shit rocks

i love the kinks

i enjoyed this!

rest of the album after the seven nation army song is kinda interesting

some nice electronic tunes on here brother

first time listening to this, what a treat. definitely need to run through a few times, but you can hear the punk sound emerge in real time as you listen through

interesting highlights on this that show the value of the live album format

nuclear bomb (mother and child reunion + me and julio) vs. coughing baby (the rest of the album)

hot doo doo from a butt sorry madonna

better than i expected

lots of hits on this, non hits are alright

kinda flat but i see the vision

man she really had a chokehold on people

sounds tremendously like 1997….a freer time

wonderful!

fascinating album given its place in the punk timeline

ball out ray charles ball out

high tempo and funny

very okay, kinda samey

such a signature voice fr

never listened to queen beyond the hits, very interesting to hear some of the diversity of sound on this album

the ai background for this on apple music is horrifying

i like common always great instrumentals

weaker neil young album to me, excited for the rest of the trilogy though

ich mag es nicht, industrielle music ist nicht fur mich

what did he mean by your sex is on fire

pretty solid…wtf are these guys doing in OKC?

mid as hell

yeah they got a song called jailbait…

great time!

great stuff i love the zombies

super samey, not very exciting

not my favorite pavement album but man i love pavement, appreciate how much more loud this one is with some softer melodic high notes

it’s alright, very 90’s

enjoyed this for the most part, prefer the folkier stuff

boring i fear

like this a lot feels like thunder cat was inspired by this

classic beastie boys, i like the surprise qtip feature

pure 80’s joy

fun electronica album to mix things up, i like it

blues king!

i was really excited for this one, i don’t think there’s many highs as high as disorder but it is still such an awesome sound

funky funky funky

very solid but showing its age

i love the scot’s they are so funny

what genre is this?

nice work music

that smoke on the water riff will live in my head until i turn to dust

fascinating listen

cool album art but this was a hard listen

rod stewart is an interesting character

my fucking goats right here bro. not in my top 3 of theirs but i think about the album name all the time.

of montreal adjacent but flatter, less fun, less interesting

unfortunately the world has evolved past the whimsy and carefree joy of sheryl crow’s go lucky ass music, no room in the dystopia nuh uh

no real highlights for me but i like their sound

love this album

they could never make me hate you leonard

they say never judge a book by its cover, i judged the fuck out of this books cover (ugly ass MS paint album art) but ended up really enjoying it!

so many hits on this one, stones at their jammiest folkiest selves

a little mundane

pretty solid record, really encompasses the tone of the era

indisputably an amazing listening experience, such a dynamic album

reminds me a ton of kaputt

great stuff!

some classic R&B great stuff

solid run of songs beyond the most popular

good in small doses!

i just don’t really like the white stripes sorry the music doesn’t hold up very well with time

4 stars just for new year’s day i love that shit

cool album art and i like their one this is the day song so much but this was a drag unfortunately

boo radley’s i was not familiar with your game!

caroline says 2 caught me off guard fr
