1001 Albums Summary

i mean, i liked TPAB, i like the lyrical complexity and meaning, but i just cant like the beats. Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe and Backseat Freestyling had good beats, but it just doesn’t make up for the lack of in the other places

Very, very strange and dark.

used to love this one when i was younger.

3.5 ish

dont get me wrong, but this album isn’t that great, compared to Pyromania. every song, there’s a different section that goes a little too long that’s just synthesizers going crazy. I love Pyromania, but i just can’t sit still long enough for this one.

very different from what i listen to. i like it.

Dark and strange. Launched the compact disc though

1984 wasn’t their best, but its the first Van Halen my dad ever heard. He got that album in 1984 when he was 9 years old. Today, I can still listen to that same record. uhh since i’ve listened to the rest of their discography, here’s a review of the rest: Van Halen II: ..eh? everyone says that this one is better than I, but i really just dont see it. Women And Children First: definitely my favorite. love the acoustic work on it. Fair Warning: probably the most consistent one. very bass heavy, which i love, but also Michael Anthony tuned to C# for it, so strangle. Diver Down: WHY are there SO MANY COVERS 5150: good intro album for Sammy Hagar OU812: most consistent Hagar album. a little too down low to be honest For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge: i also dont get the hype for this one to be honest. it should be on the list because it was the only VH album to win an award and got them on live television (VMAs). Balance: This one took a while and was very influenced by Kurt Cobain’s suicide. the band was kind of at the end of their musical ability and you can definitely hear it. Van Halen III: nope nope nope nope nope nope A Different Kind Of Truth: Loved to hear Wolfie on this one. they really turned the gain up to 11

It’s late at night. your parents think that you’re sleeping. you’ve listened to this one before, but can’t really remember all of it, so you decide to listen again. and every song, there is a different “holy shit this is so good” moment. lyrics that revel against the Iraq war, media polarization, and the bush administration. The band really matured with this one, too. They haven’t really gone back to their old sound. 11/10 the best album of the millennium

really the start of punk. i can hear where Green Day even took some of the sound.

very good punk album. strangle tim commerford. praise everybody else. music is a four, lyrics are a 5. You should rather listen to The Battle of Los Angeles, though. its more consistent and doesn’t have (what im coining) “dead spaces” where its just Tim and no one else, not even Brad.

It’s 1978. The best guitar playing you’ve ever really heard is Jimmy Paige. You hear about this album and this awesome guitar playing. As you drop the needle (as was standard for the time), Eddie blasts off.

fun

Nah bro these guys need to learn how to make music

Seems to go on with not that much change in the songs.

Objectively good. I liked it. 3 for good. 0.5 for the first song. 0.5 for the last song (Gravity Falls). -1 for creative differences.

Very nice towards the end. Not really a fan of the beginning. Personally, im into harder music.

oooh thats where it came from

Songs are entirely too long. Its has its audience.

ah yes, the “FUCK YEAAHHHH” to “life is pain” pipeline

the beats are fresh but overall it really doesn’t deliver like other songs for me. and it sounds really bad when you have an acoustic guitar and synthesized drums in this era. auto tune and that’s it. ultimately i needed to cleanse my ears with Enema Of The State.

the album sets up an expectation with “London Calling,” then it doesn’t deliver on that, instead giving songs that sound like a road trip in the rolling hills of Hertsfordshire or something i dont know im not british.

classic heads

goes on and on. its not like The Suburbs where the songs are all the same. it has variations here in there. gives off slow dance vibes.

electronica… punk? that can happen?

I very heavily dislike this album. I very much want to like what im listening to, but i disliked almost every song.

Strange and funky

I think if you hear one you hear them all

someone else said it best when they said “that small horny man made some good music”

i dont get it. Song 2 and nothing else.

oh wow! i expected this one to just be filler so there would be 1001, but this one has groove to it. Very mellow, down-to-earth rock. Pretty unique. I like it.

Poetic genius. Not that I could hear the words much anyway. Good music. Didn't expect to have that much fun with it.

Nothing inherently wrong with it. Doesn't really go hard. Pretty boring, honestly. It is good. I dont like it.

Love “Tiny Dancer”. Loved the piano. Elton John is a classic.

As a person who likes protest music, this is ok. If you're into sample-heavy stuff, you'll like this. The best songs on this one have chuck and flav rapping together (Fight The Power, for instance). Personal fan of Fight The Power. 6/10 Probably in my collection

too much fuzz

im not a metalhead but “Master Of Puppets” (the song) is pretty good. I dont like the vocal quality that the singer has.

Immigrant Song and then blues. Not too boring, not too interesting. very repetitive when the songs sound the same.

this one doesn’t really do anything for me. Fast Car is nice. Good Album. neither like nor dislike

i really thought i would like this one. a side is better than b side. it just falls off of a cliff after "The Real Slim Shady". not repetitive. probably has its audience.

Objectively good. Slightly boring. I want to strangle the bassist for "Sweet Emotion". I liked it.

Very consistently Queen. Absolutely nothing wrong with this album. I’m not a fan of Prophet Song. Ultimately, Bohemian Rhapsody.

i liked this one. nice acoustic folk. little jazzy

I’m sorry to all the jazz heads, but this all sounds the same to me. plus, Take Five is waaaaaaaaaayyyyy overplayed for me to still like it. 2/10

Funky. Slight psych rock. i liked it.

Immigrant Song and then blues. Not too boring, not too interesting. very repetitive.

each song keeps the album fresh. the Latin beat is nice

fun fact: synth rock has never had a fault

i enjoyed this album. its very good. but i did not like the banjo.

its exactly like The Suburbs. goes on. nothing notable. was bumpin in the first few songs.

Pretty good. Has my favorite Jackson song on it (“Man In The Mirror”). Would say its a four but with the bigger hits on it (“Man In The Mirror,” “Smooth Criminal”) its a 5.

The best in men's clothing Call Paul's Boutique, ask for Janice The number is 718-498-1043 That's Paul's Boutique, and they're in Brooklyn

nothing that was an absolute killer worth a 5. other than that I like tom petty

Ok so. i gave this one a try after peer pressured by my friends who have a slightly different taste than i. i did not like it. but it’s alright. im just simply not into nu metal.
