1001 Albums Summary

It's very the Marias; idk why, but I got that feeling. There are 11 songs; so far I'm on song 6. I wouldn't say there is a sole genre; if it were up to me, I would classify it as indie/alternative. Also, this page says it's electronic, and while I kind of agree, I would specify that it is downtempo, not fast tempo, which is why I find it similar to the Marias. Right now on song 11, AND I KNOW IT. Glory Box—I've honestly heard it multiple times in edits and stuff like that. I never knew who the artist was until now.

Without making the actual pun I really enjoyed the genuine rawness of the vocals and how you can diferente each instrument. After I was done listening to it, I was thinking how it kinda reminded me of some songs of David Bowie; and when I was researching the album I found out that Bowie actually helped to produce the album, which made everything more exciting ( I really like David Bowie). Now I’m more excited to listen to more of The Stooges!

I started this album without a lot of expectations because folk/country music isn't really my forte, but I can tell you after listening to it for a few times I actually enjoyed it. Yes, it was kind of slow-tempo at times, but the lyricism and the instruments make up for it in those specific songs. The song I like the most is "Words"; the guitar solo is really magnificent. Just for that, I wish I could play the guitar. This has nothing to do with the album, but when I was researching Neil Young, I went through his website. And let me tell you, it is AMAZING—the graphics and the way you can interact with each record. Also tit's really beautiful the aesthetic.

Although I don't really know that many songs by Bob Marley, I do know the basics. His voice is great, and his lyrics and the message he is trying to give are even better. Now reggae isn't by any means a genre I listen to, but it is honestly like a palate cleanser. I feel that it could become music I could listen to on a daily basis. Plus reggae is always nice to listen to.

No. 5 The first hip-hop album from the generator. I'm no hip-hop expert by any means; really, I just know the basic artists of the genre, so I was really excited to get to know more musicians. Now about the music, I really love the jazzy vibes and the way they implement the lyrics with the sounds. For example, in "What," "Chill for a minute, Doug E. Fresh said silence (*four second pause)"; that was great to listen to the first time.

No. 6 I'm in love with the cover art. The mix of rock, country, and blues is amazing in the album. I would definitely listen to it again.

No. 7 Love the songs and the cover art. I had it marked as pop, but I would say it's a mix of rock/pop. I really enjoyed the lyrics. And I know it's very cliché to say this but it sounds very 80s.

No. 8 It is in fact very groovy, very the beatles very the beach boys. The guitar is guitarring. But i would not listen this constantly.

No. 9 I knew so many songs on the album, I just never made the connection, so many bangers. Dad rock at its finest Also I was so surprised when I heard the CSI MIAMI intro, I didn’t know it was from them!!

No. 10 I wasn't familiar with CHIC until this listen; I wasnt aware they made "Freak Out." The way I can pick out the instruments throughout the records is beautiful; I can understand why they loved dancing so much in the 80s.

No 11 It’s very whimsical, artsy and it has such an ambience. Also the electronic and that bass guitar are amazing I feel it could be a great album to study to, because it’s so relaxing.

No. 12 Awesome album. Such a distinctive sound, both musically and vocally. Dancing in the moonlight is the best song amongst many great songs.

No. 13 This is the second album that I listen to from The Who, and it is very different if I were to compare them both. I did like the instrumental in all the songs, but not all of them are bangers

No. 14 I listened to this once just to hear the instruments, and I really enjoyed it, but when I listened to it the second time for the lyrics, I was very surprised. Though the lyrics are very controversial, I read it with Genius, the music is kinda good.

No. 15 Love it, makes me want to dance, and I bet you this would've been super fun to see live.

No. 16 The pace, the horns, the voice: They're all so close to perfect!!!

No. 17 Creepily good. The album cover is really awesome

No. 18 It’s soo good. The instrumentals are great and I really enjoyed Kendrick’s lyrics.

No. 19 Surpringly amazing album. Love the feeling of the music. Instruments are independent but work well together. Subtle in parts but very balanced. Also as I was listening to her, I recognized her voice but I didn’t know from where. And then when I got to “Where you lead” I realized it’s the intro song of Girlmore Girl, which I adore!!

No. 20 I wouldn't call myself a Killers fan, since I wasn't aware I knew that many songs from this album. But it was certainly an amazing listen.

No. 21 Southern rock, the exact proportion of which varies. I like the rock parts more, though I'm not against a slide guitar solo. But I really enjoyed this album

No. 22 I feel like I can understand the importance of this album in terms of shaping the perception of sampling in modern music, but that doesn’t mean that I enjoy it very much, or that I would listen to this on a daily basis.

No. 23 I love everything on this album for the instrumental to the cover album

No. 24 This album is amazing from start to finish. Amazing discovery!!

No. 25 Fantastic! Already listened twice and will definitely be in regular circulation. The guitar riffs are amazing.

No. 25 I haven’t had much experience listening to country but honestly this album was a really good introduction.

No. 26 I’m very familiar with Elvis Presley, but I’ve never listened to a whole album of his music. There’s lots to enjoy here from Elvis. though it does not have the out and out raw energy, swagger, and urgency of his best 50s stuff, there’s still heaps of style.

No. 27 SZA’s got a great voice, and these are cool, chill jams.

No . 28 I had not heard of them before this album came up here for me. Very impressive. Super-tight and musical for a "punk" band.

No. 42 Quality stuff here, R&B royalty in the making.

No. 43 I had never heard of this band, and this record made zero impression on me.

No. 44 Loved this Album. Debbie Harry has such a powerful voice and she wasn’t afraid to be different in a very tumultuous time for rock and roll, and thus helped to influence a revolution.

No. 45 i never heard this album before yesterday but i see now why snoop is revered in the rap industry.

No. 46 Didn't know her before and am happy I heard this album before I died.

No. 47 What a surprising musical journey. Beautiful vocals and grandiose music pieces.

No. 53 A really great album. No bad songs.

No. 54 Really cool listen. Some highlights and no song I really disliked.

No. 60 Zero bad tracks - Lazarus and I Can't Give Everything Away are my favorites.

No. 61 Great album with strong retro-vibe, but sounds so modern at the same time.

No. 62 I liked it a lot. Feels like the 90s.

No. 63 It was good. Rap isn’t really my thing, although I am starting to like it more. Didn't understand a single word but was bumping my head the whole time.

No. 64 This album gets an immediate star for having Superstition on it. Stone cold classic track. The rest of the album is a masterclass in funk and R&B.

No. 73 As someone without much experience with hiphop, but no hate for it, I liked this album.

No. 75 I really like the instrumentation, like the drums, guitar, and bass. But I couldn't decide how I felt about the singing.

No. 77 This was a fun listen. I didn't know anything about this album before listening to it, and was quite pleasantly surprised by it.

No. 80 A new one on me and loved it. I listened all the way through, and I didn't feel bored once.

No. 81 never heard of this band. A very early 80s punk sound but I noticed some elements of country/Americana showing up on some songs.

No. 87 this list has allowed me to listen to some excellent jazz albums, i’ve come to really appreciate the genre. i still feel like i dont know enough to critically rate it, i just sit back and enjoy it.

No. 88 Great discovery! A punk energy that doesn't preclude and a certain sophistication in the riffs and grooves.

No. 89 Songwriting and harmonica are outstanding. Dylan’s voice is an acquired taste.

No. 90 Downright amazing . I was wowed by every song

No. 91 Sounds good but it's not the big deal. It has cute and weird themes. I also feel it as an album that if you listen to it a lot you end up loving it

No. 92 More than for airports to sleep or study

No. 93 Liked it a lot more than I expected.

No. 94 I've heard some of the songs before. Haven't listened to the whole album until today. Happy that I finally got around to it.

No. 95 I enjoyed it, but there’s probably not a great deal to return to.

No. 96 terrific production and great performance by her, what a moment in time.

No. 97 So good I listened to it twice in a row. Easily my favorite Wu-Tang related project.

No. 111 Another great listen. Smooth, cool, and classic

No. 112 just kinda soft rock stuff, kinda catchy background music.

No. 113 Wow, what an album. Almost all the songs are great, and after i finished i kept on repeating songs.

No. 114 I'd never heard the album as a whole before, but I'd heard almost all the tracks as singles. It's fire!

No. 115 This was incredible. Beautiful vocals, really subtle yet moving music

No. 116 Iron Maiden’s debut is a classic. It’s just raw energy captured in 8 tracks of brilliance.

No. 117 it's a fun listen but not something I'd come back to with any frequency.

No. 118 Never really got round to listening to her properly before but this is great.

No. 119 Dug it, kinda faded on the back half

No. 120 Kind of mesmerizing but it felt more like background music.

No. 122 This is alright - nice album but nothing really stood out.

No. 123 Nah. Liked the first two, then it just fell off for me.

No. 124 I'm not sure I've ever listened to this album all the way through but I knew almost every song.

No. 125 Yes, it is too long. But it's an absolute pleasure to listen to.

No. 126 Amazing glam rock. Start to finish, amazing songs

No. 127 Really loved this one. Love how well they can create an atmosphere with the vocals, lyrics and instrumentation.

No. 128 Not every song works to the same extent. But when a song hits, it really hits. Chills.

No. 129 This was so good. But I'll probably never listen again.

No. 130 Okay album. Macbeth was a pretty fun track.

No. 131 The music is fantastic, and Siouxsie's voice is making it a thousand times cooler.

No. 132 Not my thing, especially the lyrics and vocals, but the beat and samples were neat.

No. 133 100% absolutely beautiful and unique music. But, I'll probably never listen to it again.

No. 134 liked it. good background music

No. 135 cool, feel good album. amazing vocal composition, very good production, overall peak pop-music.

No. 136 Wow, what an album. Where the sounds of light and darkness intertwine into an atmospheric soundscape.

No. 137 amazing album, some of the most raw grunge shit i’ve ever heard.

No. 138 I liked this album very much. It sounds so true and so fun.

No. 139 All over the place in the best way possible

No. 148 Enjoyed most of this. Will definitely re-visit in the near future.

No. 151 Honestly it’s hard to pick a favorite on this album.

No. 152 It's really good, I honestly wasn't expecting such a good album.

No. 153 I enjoyed this way more than I expected to. Amazing rapping with super fun beats.

No. 154 The songs were mostly melancholy and the melodies, such as they were, fell flat.

No. 155 Germs is hardcore punk band. Super fast and thrashy like punk should be, but I haven't got an idea what the lead singer is saying. It's exactly what you expect from a good punk band.

No. 156 Well this is a lot of fun. No grand artistic statement here just a bunch of talented musicians.

No. 157 From start to finish pure energy and aggressive sound, with some of the most iconic riffs you have ever heard.

No.158 Weird record, but I mean that in a good way. I guess I always knew Minutemen had something of a cult following in the punk world, but this is the first time I’ve sat down and listened to it.

No. 159 I enjoyed this a lot more than I was anticipating and it's purely because the vocals were so good.

No. 162 I don't understand what it means to be safe as milk. I don't understand a lot of things about this album.

No. 163 This just a good old fashioned rock album. Great licks, fun song subjects, and high energy.

No.164 Classic album. One of the greatest hip hop albums ever. The storytelling, production, rapping are so point it's crazy.

No. 165 Pretty energetic and fun for 60s music. Don't think I'd ever listen to it again though.

No. 166 Thoroughly did not enjoy it.

No. 167 Amazing that it was performed live and the flaws and asides and prison chatter add to the overall vibe, rather than detract.

No. 168 Pleasant listen. Blown away by "Strength of Strings" in particular.

No. 169 I can say enjoy the distortion effects and piano playing compliment each other real nice.

No. 170 More of an historic curiosity than a listenable album.

No. 171 Cool rhythms here, from the beats to the flows! This album is paced really well.

No. 172 Musically this album is good, but the vocals are horrific.

No. 173 Very cool, eclectic, always changing up the point of view. The instrumental tracks are especially interesting.

No. 174 Always a great album to check out. Not one of my favorites but it is good.

No. 175 I enjoyed this album. The voices and music were really nice to listen to.

No. 177 Loved this way more than I expected to.

No. 178 Quite good. Quite fun. Full of youth

No. 179 43 minutes of relaxing, well crafted bossa nova. I can’t imagine being mad about having to listen to this.

No. 180 80s hip hop is just so cool and so much more fun that where the genre went. I loved this.

No. 181 The classroom samples were really cool and furthered the message of love. Never really got into soul, but I think this was good.

No. 182 I tried so hard to like this, but it didnt work.

No. 183 Really weird album, but really enjoyed it. All over the place, but still coherent enough to be a really fun experience.

No. 184 This really isn’t for me.

No. 185 This was better than I expected. Varied melodies and tempos plus good lyrics make it easy to listen.

No. 186 Never heard this before, liked it.

No. 187 This is some classic rock with a great jazzy element.

No. 188 Believe it or not, it's my first time listening to Fiona Apple, and what an artist is she to listen to for the first time. It's a wonderful, powerful record. I absolutely love it.

No. 189 Enjoy the album, I kinda phased out and got into the beats. No idea what the lyrics were about.

No. 190 Pretty cool kind of art rock, starts sounding the same after a little bit though

No. 191 Just a really solid hip hop album. Some amazing songs on this album. Can't believe I've never heard of Lupe Fiasco before.

No. 192 Hadn’t realised just how good this would be. Great from start to finish.

No. 193 Loved this one. Was not expecting to like it! Never listened to Willie Nelson before. Felt soothing to the brain

No. 194 Never listened to this whole record before. Not gonna lie, it POPS

No. 195 Overall great album. Fun, funny, funky. A number of classics here.

No. 196 This is fun, as music should be. Not perfect, but tons of charm.

No. 197 Very simplistic, lots of songs about love. There are a few that do stand-out, but for an album it's just 'alright'.

No. 198 I actually really enjoyed this chilled out, electro-chill vibe.

No. 199 80s Girl Power Pop. And it is awesome! Just a killer album with banger after banger. Loved this from start to finish. Such a fun listen.

No. 200 Very atmospheric album, some great compositions, and also lots of crazy weird stuff. I enjoy the variety while still maintaining a sort of mysterious vibe throughout.

No. 201 I have heard of her but this is first time hearing her music. It’s a different sound. It’s nice but not sure I’d listen to it again

No. 202 I didn't mind this, surprisingly I listened to the whole album. Liked Neon lights.

No. 203 Very nice. It's beautiful in the background. Beautiful harmonies.

No. 204 It's not my favorite flavor of hiphop but this album is solid. I mean, Ice Cube has always been ready to get up in faces and speak hard truths. That is very much on display here

No. 205 I enjoyed this as much as I enjoy most blues rock, although I don't think it sounds like peak Rolling Stones and is very Americanized

No. 206 I had never heard of Sarah Vaughan before this. Her voice sounds so inviting, and her vibrato is incredible. It's so warm and enticing that it makes one feel like they're in the room with her as she's singing. I'll definitely have to look into her other work at some point.

No. 207 Some fantastic technical guitar playing on here along with some great riffs. Mustaines voice is made for metal

No. 208 I liked the majority of this album. It had some variety and a couple of classic funk and R&B songs.

No. 209 Every song could have been a single. Track one starts running and each after continues the trend. It's hit after hit and on this list for a reason.

No. 210 Although this isn't the type of music I usually listen to, I really liked this artist's sound.

No. 211 Every track is well made and quite different from each other making it a very enjoyable listen. No skips

No. 212 Solid Blues Rock. I can't say I particularly liked it, but I also didn't notice anything negative about this album.

No. 213 I like the vocals and songs. It's worth revisiting once in a while.

No. 214 I have no frame of reference or culture context to evaluate this by. However, it is - objectively - an enjoyable album.

No. 215 Energy behind the songs was good but the songs themselves were ok.

No. 216 Some greats hits on this album. Love the harmonica!

No. 217 At first it was nothing special to me but it kind of grew on me.

No. 218 This starts with Take On Me? Wow that's a high mark to keep up. Every time I seem to wane interest in the sound, there is a new thing thrown in.

No. 219 I like it, solid album, some nice guitar work and fun tunes.

No. 220 Bluesy, Rocky, nicely produced, great to listen to.

No. 221 Rather jolly. No real duds but no standouts either.

No. 222 Another really cool album. It's certainly a departure from what was popular in hip-hop at the time. Some aspects of the album sound dated, but overall the production is really good. Lots of fun songs
