nostalgic, very 90s, My So-Called Life, Flannel, sadness, familiar but not known, Gen X coded
solid rock, I see why older folks enjoy U2. Bono‘s voice still annoys me though.
smooth, groovy, deep lyrics hidden in easy listening
Whimsical, in a way. I can’t get over the (rampant) child rape. I don’t care if everyone was doing it. I do hear some stuff that has been repeated often since. He’s been an influence for sure. I do agree with the Andy Warhol hate (?). Still not a great song though. Nevermind, it was supposed to be a tribute. Apparently Andy hated it.
love my doorbell, nostalgic, groovy, who was he pining for? She was literally haunting him. Was it Renee Zellweger? Apparently Rita Hayworth and ‚truth‘. I love the White Stripes and I love this record. Shoutout to Meg, first woman for me in this very male 1001-lineup…
influential music by an a**. Thom Yorke singing ‚I want to be part of humanity‘ is rich. I love ‚Just‘, thank goodness for the Mark Ronson version.
seven minutes into the first song and nothing has happened. This is going to be a long one. Lots of guitars, fades into the background with the (occasional) mumbled singing. You probably had to be there. I do prefer the originals, not the digital remasterings.
original emo, perpetually horny and angry at some woman he hates. what in the misogyny is this? wild how all the 2000 boy bands sound like him, time really is a flat circle. I love the music but it’s hard to listen to the lyrics. Pump it up!!! Olivia Rodrigo ey?
Punk beats and country rock, didn’t know it before listening, some songs feel familiar. Nice guitar sound, slightly grungy, Kurt Cobain definitely knew them. And then comes Lake of Fire, haha, called it. This is Nirvana‘s origin basically.
boring. And a hymn in Israel in 1971? No.
Hadn’t heard this in years. I realize I mostly know Clint Eastwood. I thought they’d had more hits. Fun listen and very nostalgic.
really fun to listen to, such a 90s record, including the references to John Gotti.
this is better than the other record I heard. Still a child rapist. I did hear a sample Apollo 440 used (hey man), which I enjoyed.
never heard of them even though it’s solidly my age group. Words is very pretty. The sound reminds me a bit of Incubus at times. Also Coldplay. Solid rock, a bit dreamy.
not impressed, it’s mostly just the same riff over and over again. I do like Ozzy‘s voice. The supposed anti-war message is not very convincing.
a lot more repetitive and psychedelic than I remembered. I‘m more of a 2000s Chemical Brothers girl, I think.
did not know this. Easy to listen to, but more of a background sound to me. Actually pretty boring, I kept skipping through songs as they are very repetitive. My attention span cannot deal with it. Some of it sounds familiar, I probably heard it somewhere at some point.
nice bells and riff. It’s very iconic. Also a formula, a bit repetitive. But fun and the songs are not too long.
I don’t think I ever consciously listened to this but it feels so familiar. Like a warm hug, that kind of rock that aligns with your pulse. The world definitely was better in 1993. I love this, so perfectly nostalgic.
first listen but the style is very familiar. Love it. The lyrics aren’t terrible I think. And if course I know For What it’s worth, just not by name. Not on the album of course
never really listened to Beck, but it’s familiar. Very eclectic, folk, hiphop, Beastie Boys and LCD Soundsystem, I hear a lot of influences/influencees. It’s experimental, weird sounds including static.
very comforting intro, like everything will be ok. Cozy rock.
Blister in the sun! My so-called life! Never heard the rest. Some of the lyrics are cringe ‚why can’t I get just one kiss/screw/fuck‘ and downright scary. Emo fuckboy vibe from the 80s, I guess they‘ve always existed.
Funky, groovy, and the lyrics are downright cute. A bit of politics, but not too much. A Stevie Wonder fan (love?) song. Very anti gangster, some Jesus love, also don’t push me, cause I‘m close to the edge…oh also some misogyny, yay! Poor men get fucked over by women, who are too feminist l.
that Intro is so good. Cool people music that I didn’t listen to back in the day. A guy who was much cooler than I was made me a mix-memory stick with the xx on it.
Guitars.
Shine on you crazy diamond is such a calming song. Perfect brain waves. Pink Floyd really saw the world as it is. My mom said they were ‚too intellectual‘ for her. Dad has 5 non-classical vinyls and one of them is Atom Heart Mother. Wish you were here was my favourite song as a kid listening to the radio (we did not have a TV).
Iconic guitar and voice. Interesting to hear a song about manic depression in the 60ies. The talent is so palpable. Red House intro is so recognizable.
Girls&Boys is iconic. The 90s were better somehow. The album is pretty weird. Definitely where the Streets got his style from. A bit Pink Floydy.
I don’t know much about Brian Eno except he gets name checked by MGMT and he’s spoken up about Palestine. Very 70ies, psychedelic, ladadaday. Here come the warm jets sounds so familiar, definitely inspiration for others.
the title seems missleading? I‘d call this jazz I think. Lots of classics and Ray Charles sounds fantastic.
Stronger than me is pretty homophobic actually. F me Pumps a bit sexist, but honest. I love Amy, but this wasn’t as good as I remembered. Her masterpiece is Back to Black, but this does showcase her talent. I wish she could have stayed with us.
Finally getting some girls, Shirley!! Sultry voice. ‚This is not my idea of a good time‘ It’s good but also a bit monotone. Still a vibe.
raspy dystopia. It’s pretty uncomfortable, lots of noisy sounds, grating at times. It’s interesting, more poems than songs at times. ‚the ocean doesn’t want me today‘. Very anachronistic, something from the 70s. But of course the 70s and 90s are linked.
it’s really pretty, just good live rock.
that squeaky chair sound. Hilariously American record, gimme a honky tonk girl…they sound like caricatures. Maybe they are cosplaying? You can’t always get what you want is perfect though, just so good
love all the chatting and shoutouts to the songwriters.
never heard of them but it’s a woman singing and a fun rock and roll groove. Blondie vibes, but more guitars?
Ain’t talking bout love…ain’t talking bout dub (Apollo 440). Love this, very rock n roll and short n sweet.
it was a vibe, not really mine. And Marilyn Manson has so many accusers, it’s hard to understand why anyone still listens.
Baby Lenny Kravitz <3 It’s a bit grating at times, he strains his voice a lot. Does anybody know how many lives we‘ve lost is a tune. Mr Cab Driver is interesting, too. Flower child is groovy. I prefer the second part of the album.
it‘s a vibe. Can barely understand them but it’s iconic.
reminds me a bit of Dace Matthews Band but maybe not? I feel like I know Talking Heads songs but don’t know which. This has definitely been an influence for other bands.
I only know the one with Kylie Minogue, that was played to death on the radio. Nothing else reached my childhood bedroom in Europe. The sound is spooky. I hope it’s not all murdered women. Love hearing PJ Harvey. It’s a concept album, but I don’t like the concept.
Rock n roll with a female singer. Lots of guitar, it’s punk apparently but I am more familiar with later punk that is a lot faster. I can see this being super cool at the time.
very funky. Also a bit romantic. And some familiar sounds and beats.
very groovy, 60s sound. Definitely know Strange Brew. Some others sound familiar, too. Googled where the name came from and it’s an inside joke they all thought was hilarious (but really isn’t).
an album named 1984, from 1984. I definitely know Jump but probably nothing else. It’s fun, guitars and one word choruses. Ultimately, pretty boring.
Funky, groovy, lyrics are pretty repetitive and not very interesting. They are actually largely nonsense. I like the lyrics to Wartime (Alternative Version). LCD Soundsystem does the speak-singing better. But Cities is also ok lyrically.
Different vibe to the last one, more bluesy rock. Second song called Cannibal‘s Hymn of course he can’t not sing about eating flesh. I don’t think I like Nick Cave. Just not for me. It’s creepy in a creepy way. I don’t want to be prey. Messiah Ward is ok. There she goes, my beautiful world is actually very pretty. Nature Boy also. Abattoir Blues is devastating. Shoutout to the backing vocalists. The second disc is more melancholy and I don’t connect as much I think. Maybe the second part picks up a bit, like with the first record. Supernaturally is very folky with a nice rhythm. Back to the melancholy. Carry me is pretty, spiritual. O Children, too.
4 songs, 48 minutes. I‘m already annoyed. The songs are very calming. But calling this an album is bold. Was this the origin of ambient music? Apparently yes. Well done Brian Eno.
never heard it before even though I love Goldfrapp. It’s less electro, more dramatic, jazzy at times, very soft, slower. Beautiful like everything she does.
I‘ve never listened to Adele‘s 25. I love love 19 and also enjoy 21 (or is it 22?). This was so viral that I kind of refused to listen to it. Her voice is so beautiful and really mature. When we were young is so beautiful. How cute of her to feel like that at 25. Or mature? I was useless at 25. It’s pretty, lots of big emotions. Still prefer 19.
Funky, groovy, calming still. A bit repetitive, skipped half of the first song. Does one thing, if that’s what you want, you will be happy. I‘m sorry ‚I have to keep you barefoot and pregnant‘?! Eww.
This is an album I love from a band I‘ve seen live twice. It’s more experimental abd a bit weird towards the end but overall it’s amazing.
to me, this is pretty, but forgettable.
I really enjoyed this. Didn’t realize the Pogues sounded like this. I love drunk sailor music.
fun early 2000s rock. I didn’t listen to the Vines but have heard this record. I still like this.
this grooves, I love it. It’s not terribly innovative but it’s very recognizable.
this is nice but very repetitive and ultimately boring. Did people really pay to come hear this? Might be good background music.
short and sweet
never heard of this band, but I enjoyed it. Very chill, good beat.
beautiful voice, love the music. Would listen again.
it’s a nostalgic sound, the voice is really specific. I enjoy listening to the music, the lyrics are a bit whiny/horny, but they are not as bad as other 90s singers (looking at you Nick Cave). But quite a bit of cringe nonetheless.
this is the same song over and over again, with a fun beat and nonsense lyrics. Probably a lot more fun live.
interesting, groovy, good guitar. I think this would be better live.
pleasant, interesting, feels calm and safe
this is very strange. not unpleasant, but weird.
it’s fun, very 80s.
this used to be very important to me at 17. I still listen to it. Musically it’s like a warm hug. Lyrics maybe more whiny than I remember. I am opder after all.
This was pretty boring. Liked the other obe better.
I know this is an important album, but I found it hard to bear at times. Very grating. Maybe I‘m too old now?
it’s easy-listening, good beat. Lyrics are infantile, boys really always stay the same.
I don’t hate this. It’s weird and fun.
debated even listening because 2025 Kanye is not ok. I did and I can hear how this influenced other artists a lot. It’s got a great flow. Ultimately it’s a bit repetitive and a lot of the lyrics suck. It’s not like he suddenly became a different person. He was always awful. Some of the most talented people are.
this is the 80s in any cliché depiction. picture yuppies in oversized waistcoats shaking their arms from side to side under a disco ball and colorful lights to synth beats.
Off to a good start. Never heard of this but right up my alley. Just read about Marc Lanegan passing. I really love this. Pretty perfect.
Voice so recognizable, sound, too. Rather monotone, feels like you know all songs when you’ve heard one. I know the late 90s stuff better, it has evolved but not beyond the original funky sound. It’s not bad, just more of a background sound. Probably fun live.
Interesting, groovy, weird. Kinda punk? Not much to the lyrics. Repetitive, sounds like a long jam-session.
not for me.
