1001 Albums Summary

Fuses a lot of styles, funky bass lines, classic Pharrell guitar hooks, seen later in Daft Punks last album. It does remind me of how every song sounded in the early 2000s.

Paper tiger has Radiohead vibes with the dramatic violins Lonesome tears outro was cool in a kind of drifting in space way. It's a very mellow album with some interesting sections in the tracks. I particularly enjoyed the textures and production on Sunday Sun

Feels more considered song writing, McCartney and Lennon maturing as writers

Some recognisable classics but it's quite dull

Sounds like a great show to have been at!

Better than I was expecting, as I'm not a fan of his Billie's vocal

The textures and genre blending on this album are so refreshing and still sounds great 20 years later Rebellion (Lies) is incredible as a piece of song writing

Just sounds like Toy Story

I didn't expect to like this, but it's great!

I knew this was a classic album but I've never listened to it. Wow. Every song is either a great 4 minute rock song or has an outro if pure self indulgence

Really interesting blend of styles, with ska, 80s glam rock and a dash of early 90s Manchester bands

Some great songs and William Orbit's production shines through, but there are some filler tracks on here that are very forgettable. I remembered this album being better!

Never heard this before. Can see so much modern music influenced by this style of grunge with riffs and talking vocal

Has vibes of a poor man's queen's of the stone age. The vocal isn't particularly strong. Not sure why it's on this list

The use of samples set a new precedent for dance music, and brought it to the masses. This creates a depth to the tracks that make them super interesting to listen to!

Nice NY pop punk

I really like this, although have never heard of the band! Just really good indie from the late 80s!

Enjoying this very British indie sound! The threads through to the post punk of early 2000s is easy to spot

Absolutely outstanding album,

Feels like a reflection on Christianity and how it's fallen from popular culture. Very moody and all about his raspy vocal

Classic that i've never listened to. EMI is the best track for me!

It's a classic with some legendary songs on it but has it aged well?

Never listened before but enjoying the blend somewhere between Blondie and Pink Floyd

Surprised to find I kind of liked this, like an 80s glam rock version of Franz Ferdinand

One of my desert island discs. Unparalleled

Pop music doesn't get much better than this

Production on this is surprisingly good.

Enjoyed this album, have heard of but never listened to Elliott Smith

I've never properly listened to foreign language music like this before. The production is amazing and the atmosphere created is awesome!

Quite chaotic, bass driven punk. Struggling to get affinity with it

Lots of influence from Americana r&b and rock n roll

Very self indulgent 9 minute rock epics... But I enjoyed it!

I've not listened to this before, although aware. The soundscapes created have real depth and it feels more relatable than Gorillaz

Enjoyed this but it is a long album!

Wasn't sure after the opening trick but there is some semblance of bands like Suede in here
