Actually by Pet Shop Boys
Sep 04 2025

liked it better than I thought ! Some great pop songs.

The Bends by Radiohead
Sep 05 2025

Superb. Already one of my favourite albums so I am pretty biased ! Every track is brilliant. Fake plastic trees topping the lot. Great videos as well.

Melodrama by Lorde
Sep 09 2025

Awful dull pop nonsense. Like a million other same sounding guff.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Sep 10 2025

Nice 70s piano vibes.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Sep 11 2025

Psycho killer is a banger but not for me the rest of it.

Sep 12 2025

Really enjoyed listening to that for the first time in years ! Rockefeller skank still banging.

Be by Common
Sep 15 2025
The Visitors by ABBA
Sep 17 2025

Not as poppy as i feared.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Sep 19 2025

Really enjoyed this new york 80s post punk pop smash

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Sep 22 2025

Really excellent. His voice is incredible

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Oct 01 2025

I totally get its a brilliant cultural masterpiece but i cannot get on with the mumbling

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
Oct 03 2025

Dull

War by U2
Oct 04 2025

U2’s *War* delivers raw energy and urgency, even if I’m not the biggest fan. “Sunday Bloody Sunday” stands out with its sharp political edge and fantastic drumming. While some tracks don’t fully grab me, the album shows flashes of greatness and a powerful rhythm section worth hearing.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Oct 05 2025

*Le Tigre’s* self-titled album is a lively mix of pop and punk energy. I didn’t mind it at all — some tracks are surprisingly catchy, with bold, fun beats and sharp attitude. It’s quirky, energetic, and definitely worth a listen.

Arise by Sepultura
Oct 06 2025
Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 10 2025

Pish

Connected by Stereo MC's
Oct 16 2025

Quite bland. Change the drum loop lads

S&M by Metallica

Shleep by Robert Wyatt

Ten by Pearl Jam

Live At Leeds by The Who
Nov 15 2025

Dont really get why this is here. Do we need another who album ? Some good tunes but a lot of mediocre stuff.

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Nov 17 2025
Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
Nov 19 2025

Okay starts off kinda country dull slop. lyrics a bit descriptive. This just sounds a bit try hard. The vocals seem like an affectation. Overall its just dull.

Nov 20 2025

I only knew the big songs, but the full album showed me so much more—ideas are fresh, Left My Wallet in El Segundo is cool, and the whole thing flows with an ease that made me appreciate how confident Tribe already were on their debut.

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris
Nov 21 2025

I went in hoping for something that would surprise me, but Red Dirt Girl just didn’t land. I found it dull, full of familiar country tropes, and the storytelling was crap. Instead of feeling like I was on a country road, I mostly felt bored and disconnected. There must be a million better country albums than this?

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Nov 22 2025

Jazz schmazz. Enough already

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Nov 23 2025

Nice mellow blues / jazz / bit of funk ? Great voice

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Dec 03 2025

Soppy shite. Just bland run of the mill saturday tv family gameshow appearing drabness.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Dec 09 2025

Never really paid much attention to the cocteau twins before but really enjoyed it ! Dreamy proto shoegaze :)

Smash by The Offspring
Dec 16 2025

Fly Or Die by N.E.R.D

Mediocre 2000s production blandness. God its dull.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Jan 15 2026
Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jan 18 2026
Jan 22 2026

I liked this album more than I expected. I loved the guy’s energy with the crowd and I don’t think I would have enjoyed it as much as a studio album. Glad it wasnt overly jazzy !

Feb 14 2026

Feb 16 2026
Metallica by Metallica
Feb 20 2026

track 1 side 1 intro.....and we go ! :)

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Feb 23 2026

The Flaming Lips are still putting out cool, unusual albums and experimenting with new sounds. They’ve stayed creative and unpredictable decades into their career.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Feb 24 2026

Superb. Quirky, funny and original. Loved it

Blur by Blur

Apr 01 2026

Didn't mind this. Relaxing

2112 by Rush
Apr 02 2026

I have heard a few Rush tracks before but didnt really have a feel for them before listening to this. Kinda like a poundshop Led Zeppelin / who ? Its okay. Like a lot on this list it doesn't seem essential but 1001 is an awful big number.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Apr 06 2026
Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Apr 07 2026

Take five okay. Like all jazz the constant hi hat can GTF.

Henry's Dream by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Apr 23 2026

Nick Cave was always on my radar but this 1000 albums thing has really opened my eyes to what an Amazing artost

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Apr 25 2026

Its okay but its not his best and I don't think it is essential.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Apr 26 2026
Queen Of Denmark by John Grant
May 01 2026

Astonished by the reviews on here. This is brilliant! Witty, dark, deliberately janky.

Frank by Amy Winehouse

Dust by Screaming Trees

Very generic and pretty dull !
