1001 Albums Summary

Solid debut by the band, and a couple banger sright from the get-go. This record becomes the foundation they build their following releases on, expanding and experimenting with this particular style.

Instrumentation is pretty good. I still don't like Morrisey as a human being.

Outstanding debut by the King himself, his rockabilly roots ever so present here, and demonstrates why he became the King of Rock and Roll.

First R.E.M. record I ever heard. Consistently good from beginning to end.

Not a bad record, but nothing really stood out to me. Not one of Bowie's best, but still an enjoyable listen.

Dad rock incarnate. Great album nonetheless.

Brilliant concept album from Bowie.

Raw, energetic, and old school, The Germs were pure punk rock.

Not bad, but functions more as background music or a soundtrack.

Raw and unfiltered, they would improve with their follow-up.

Really captures the energy the band has. Solid from beginning to end.

Solid record from beginning to end, Bowie never misses.

Incredibly funky, I like the album's vibe.

I never got Marilyn Manson's appeal.

Overall I liked it. Reminded me of something my mom would play in the car and not let us change it.

I didnt think much of them before, but the record surprised me. The two guys have some real talent.

Solid album, where Queen started to become Queen.

Musically it's well done, but I couldn't get into it.

I dont think Adele has a bad song.

This is probably the only Bon Jovi album worth listening too.

Honestly this whole record is a vibe. Flows effortlessly into the next song, with callbacks to previous tracks making it like a concept album.

Every song is great, and while their punk rock sound from earlier records is still there, the experimentation and willing to expand their repertoire adds depth to their writing and overall sound.

Did not expect them to sound like this. Pretty good for what for what it was.

I liked it, but nothing stood out to me on the record.

They really like sampling.

It has "Smoke on the Water", n'uff said.

Heavy Metal peaked here.

Not what I expected from a band called "Primal Scream".

Damn, I want to see the movie this was made for that doesn't exist.

An early creative peak for the band.

I like Fatboy Slim's music, but many of the tracks get repetitive and go on for way too long.

It's a cool vibe but I lose interest in albums like this about halfway through.

"Money For Nothing" is worth the price of admission alone.

Snoopy likes to drop N-bombs quite frequently.

Pretty decent alternative rock album, although some songs seem to go on for longer than they need too.

Soundgarden delivered a record with the raw energy of their roots, but had also matured as songwriters and musicians.

After this, Genesis started to suck.

I like this early rock 'n' roll stuff.

I've heard Constant Craving my entire life and had no idea it was k.d. lang.

I never got the appeal of ska.

Bowie looked death in the eyes and said "Let's make art together!"

I fucking hate Coldplay.

Ya ya ya, I am Lorde.

This one of the most 90s things I've ever heard.

Every song sounds the same.

It evokes a millenial "stomp boom clap!" vibe that I just don't care for.

Didn't know what to make of it, but I liked it.

Nu Metal is about as entertaining as an abortion.

She's very talented, and I remember hearing the closing track sung by Selma to Jub-Jub on The Simpsons.

Bruce Springsteen has a lot of talent, but I'm also not a blue collar worker from New Jersey so I didn't really vibe with it. The nine minute closer was a bit of a shock.

I did not expect bongo renditions of The Rolling Stones or Iron Butterfly. That being said the album felt like it went on for too long.

Live albums like this are where groups like The Allman Brothers Band really shine, as it captures their jams and improvisational style, putting their full talent on display.

This record just didn't end.

It was enjoyable enough but Prince just writes wierd songs.

It's a vibe, feels kind of like a soundtrack to a 90's sci-fi immersion sim.

It's a vibe. I'm not too into jazz fusion but I liked this as some background music.

This is where "Beatlemania" started.

Electronic music has never been my jam. Its good for being in a club or something, but you dont sit down and listen to it like a regular record.

Pretty good vibe.

I get bored so easily, I just don't think this is my type of stuff.

There isn't one song on this album I don't like.

Shame the band didn't last longer, it's raw British punk at it's finest.

Weird, experimental, and unique, not what I expected from a group called "The Gun Club".

Bjorn is wierd but I like her vibe.

It's enjoyable but not my cup of tea.

I'm all for art and experimentation, but what the hell did I just listen to?

I've been aware of Yes for ages but never have their stuff a listen. Great stuff!

I don't think there's a bad song on this record.

It's like if Coldplay didn't suck.

Surprisingly decent.

ZZ Top are just so cool.

Ive never heard of these guys and I thought this album was a banger.

Solid debut featuring one of the group's most well-known songs as a penultimate closer.

Raw and uncompromising, its hardcore punk at it's finest.

It was enjoyable but I really can't get into music I can't understand the lyrics too.

This was a great vibe and I enjoyed every single track.

Easily the best work Brian Wilson ever produced.

I enjoyed the jazzy vibe this record had. Some songs felt too long, but I still liked them.

Pretty good stuff, got bored near the end.

Great debut, and the raw, punkier vibe of this era fits Paul D'Ianno's vocals perfectly. Most of the songs are quick and short, but "The Phantom of the Opera" lays the groundwork for their later epics.

Pretty solid record, and the cover art would later inspire the video for Bohemian Rhapsody.

Jazz is cool and all, but I got really bored about halfway through.

They definitely have a "we don't give a fuck" punk attitude, and I dig it.

She was a very talented musician, and her music shows that. However, her overall style I'm not crazy about.

A bit more straghtforward than their previous releases, but no John Cale, so it's only so-so.

I never really listened to Santana, and overall it was pretty good.

Having a grasp on the French language, I found it pretty entertaining.

Ha, she wrote a song about female masturbation.

I feel like this is what vikings sounded like.

Overall pretty decent Alt Rock record.

It's a Christmas album. It's fine, but nothing amazing.

She's talented, but I didn't care for the record.

Talking Heads without David Byrne gets real new wave.

Great record, and unfortunately Brian Jones' last wirh the group, but a good one to go out on.

I dig it's vibe. Another artist I had no idea existed before this.

I liked it, cool songs and and enjoyable all the way through.

Well, he's got his own unique style, that's for sure.

A solid post-Ziggy Stardust record.

The Boss is a talented guy, but I'm also not a blue collar guy from Michigan so I'm not crazy about him.

More ambience than a traditional record, but still a vibe.

My only gripe with the record is the title track hits hard, then it's a slower record after that. Still a great penultimate record for the legendary Leonard Cohen.

It's bookended by two tracks that are long and experimental.

Overall not bad. Not life changing or anything, but enjoyable.

He makes decent music, but I still hate Morrisey.

"Hungry Like The Wolf" is a banger.

For a group called "The Soft Boys", they're anything but.

Wierd, but I liked it.

It's good, but not my thing.

Def Leppard were on track to be a massive part of the NWOBHM in the 80s, then said "nah, we wanna make crap."

There was nothing I recognized, but pretty decent nontheless.

As with every Talking Heads record, it gets wierd and experimental.

My favourite Zeppelin album. Every song is fantastic.

I enjoy it well enough for a bit, but the songs just get repetitive and drag on after a while.

That cover gives a different vibe to what it actually sounds like.

Every single song sounds the same.

I liked it, but I felt like it went on for way too long.

Ray Charles is great.

I get it now.

I don't mind the Byrds, and it was enjoyable, but nothing stood out on this album.

I didn't realize Moondance was Van Morrison.

I don't like Slipknot because I'm not 13 years old anymore.

I liked this album's vibe.

I like Common as an actor. Not a huge fan of his music.

I liked it. Cool jam-band vibe and mostly instrumental.

I really didn't know what to make of this.

I liked it. Very Neil Young coded.

The Who were at their prime here.

Surprisingly a lot mote nuance than you'd expect. Arguably better than their debut.

Had no idea who these guys were. Enjoyable enough.

Who listens to this outside a club environment?

I appreciate their artsy nature, but some songs feel like they don't ever end.

Peak Johnny Cash.

Nice mixture of their early stuff with dance vibes.

I think this is my favourite record of theirs.

Great raw punk record.

Good beginnings, but let's face it, there's only one memorable song to this day for a reason.

I only know that one song, and I'm not a fan.

Not bad, not my thing tho.

That band name with that cover had me going in with wildly different expectations.

I liked it. Pure 90s alt grunge.

That last song just kept going.

What the hell was this?

His name was Robert Paulson.
