1001 Albums Summary

Everything In It's Right Place made me feel disorientied and the lyrics were hard to understand/listen to. All the extra sounds felt strange and honestly retracted from the song, it feels like they just threw shit on a wall and tried to find what stuck. Kid A is the same thing but the lyrics are even less understandable(to the point where I need the lyrics tab to understand the song). The sounds get better as the song progresses but the lyrics make this a painful listen, no emotional value. The National Anthem has a nice background tempo but the random sounds actually make me laugh like what is this song. Again I couldn't understand a single lyric besides "It's Holding On". Again not quite sure what the message is here. How to Disappear Completely is terrible, the lyrics are grating in my opinion and constantly repeat with random goofy sounds playing in the background. I'm guessing the song is about dealing with loss? Or maybe dissociation? Regardless it was a painful listen that didn't evoke any emotion. Treefingers sounds like the PS Vita main menu sound if you were smoking peyote and not in a good way. I had to check to make sure the song wasn't looping it felt like elevator music. Optimisitc has a lot of lyrics but again I need to pull the lyrics tab to understand a single word he says, what's the point of the vocalist if he's drowned out this bad? I didn't even know the song was about self acceptance because I couldn't hear a word he said. Background rhythm and tempo are not too bad on this one actually, but it's not my style. In Limbo is basically Optimisitc but slightly clearer lyrics and more random sounds. I honestly have nothing to say about this I didn't even realize it played and had to relisten it's that forgettable. Idiotequete, while being random ass sounds has a very nice background rhythm and tempo, but it's ruined by a vocalist who doesn't do anything. The music is too loud to understand this guy so all he's doing is moaning into a mic. Morning Bell, this song is genuinely terrible. RUN AROUND... WALK WALK WALK like please say something... ANYTHING different. I'm glad I didn't understand this guy these lyrics make 0 sense. Motion Picture Soundtrack also makes 0 sense to me. At the very least I understand what he's saying but it's gibberish to me. The harp in the background is nice though. Overall, the album doesn't have a clear message in the slightest and triggers no emotions in me other then boredom. I'd rather watch paint dry for 47 minutes then listen to this.

It's famous for a reason, even the weaker songs have charm to them. And of course this album has Thriller, possibly the most well known song in the world.
