Hat mir gefallen, auch wenn es manchmal etwas zu jazzig oder psychedelisch war. Klingt ganz anders als die 80er Chicago.
I enjoyed listening to it once, though will probably not revisit it. I know where is my mind from fight club and I feel that's all I need to know from them. Not a bad album, in any case not boring, and given the time it came out I understand it's significance.
I liked the first track. The rest was about what I expected from Prince, funky, 80s, some high pitched singing, some songs a bit repetitive in themselves. Not my cup of tea, but overall not boring.
Well , I'm late GenX, so this is my time. I always liked the Green Day singles but never felt the need to listen to their albums. If you like Basket Case, this album is for you, it's fast, melodic and sounds like a good time.
This was a pleasant surprise. Like probably 90% of my generation I knew Son of a Preacher Man from Pulp Fiction. I liked the song, and I do like the album. It sounds very relaxed and quite diverse. If you like Son of a... give it a spin!
Better than I expected after only knowing (and disliking) Loser.
Some cool sounding riffs. Industrial has never been my cup of tea, this didn't change that. I found it exhausting.
Professionally made, boring music.
Professionally made, boring music.
Very cool rock from the 60s. Unfortunately this also means 60s production value.
I'm a metal head, this is a classic, even though I prefer something more melodic. Still worth a listen.
Punk. I have never heard of this band before. I quite like the music but their singer, though recognizable, starts to annoy me after ab while, aber that while it's within the albums short runtime of ca. 21 minutes. The music is cool.
It's diverse pop music. I liked some songs, but some bored me.
I never heard of this guy. He has a pleasant voice and knows how to use it. Good music, a bit too psychedelic for my taste sometimes. All in all nothing to special but maybe good for fans of his genre.
Never heard of these gals. Nice punk with some ska influence. Could imagine them in a Tony hawk soundtrack.
I don't listen to much electronic stuff, so this is highly subjective: This was horrible, I couldn't bring myself to finish it. To me it sounds boring an uninspired.
I always wanted to like Pearl Jam and do, but only to some degree. This was a defining album of the 90s for sure and from a musical point of view this is quite good. Still nothing stays in my head except for the hits.
Never really thought much about the Kinks, but I found this really enjoyable. I sort of wish I could experience it without being used to modern production values, because of course it has that 60s sound, but there is a lot good going on.
Not my cup of tea, I don't know enough about rap. More melodic than what I expected, appropriate level of profanity.
I missed PJ Harvey in the 90s. The cover led me to expect something completely different, so I was pleasantly surprised.
I liked it but it sounded a bit samey after a while
Kind of boring. Less folksy than I thought. Went by without me even noticing
Well, it's Led Zeppelin. Can you give bad grades? Add this is down to personal taste, of course the answer is yes. I understand their influence and musicality, it's just I never feel like listening to them.
Chuck D. has got a cool voice and everything sounds interesting. Rap isn't really my thing, though.
Good musicians and a voice you either love or hate. It's very progressive as in there are not a lot of hooks so it's an exhausting listen. Not my cup of tea.
It's good rock music, they know how to play their instruments and surprisingly enough they don't sound like sex on fire all the time. But: music like this was made 40 years ago? I can't find anything groundbreaking or new. I also don't care for their singer or the guitar sound.
This is a classic and I think Eddie Van Halen is over of the most important guitar players since Hendrix. Still I never really cared for their music, I prefer the - heretic as it is - Van Hagar era.
This was surprisingly good. I didn't care for U2 most of my life, of course I knew some singles, but they sound young and fresh on this. I liked it.
I only knew the usual singles from The Doors, most of which I find kind of boring and repetetive. This album is more musically diverse and interesting than I was expecting. Gave me a new look on The Doors.
Well. I always thought of the Foo Fighters as generic rock music. Not bad, but nothing special either. This didn't change with this album, but to be fair, it sounds more fresh than what I imagined.
Nice interesting punk, new wave-ish music.
Meh
Meh
Exhausting LSD (presumably) fueled Pogrock. Not for me.
Meh
An 80s pop album full of hits. I always liked Cyndi Laupers colorful, independent message. Solid.
Elvis.
I didn't like it one bit. It sounds mainly like noise, with occasional melody bits. May have have been something new in 91 but new is not automatically good.
Well , it's Britpop, so you get what you paid for. I found it to be a bit boring.
I'm sorry but rap all sounds the same to me
Interesting, seems intellectual, maybe too much so for me. I think I hear some punk influence which I like. Singers voice is an acquired taste, I guess.
Synthpop I didn't really care about. It's not bad, though. Interesting to say the least.
In lack of better understanding of this kind of music I would describe it as African choir music. I like it but not for the length of a whole album.
90s Rap, may have been a step forward to have a successful woman in a male dominated field, but that's doesn't make me like the music.
I'm not a rap guy, so it's hard for me to evaluate. More diverse than other stuff I've heard.
CCR seems to be a bit like Bad Religion (the band): most of their stuff sounds alike, and if you like it, you're good. I do.
I'm not a jazz expert but this was smooth and sounded interesting.
Not my cup of tea. Pop music, sounds fun at times but overall to repetitive die my tastes.
Not a big fan of his singing voice. It's all good musically, but an acquired taste I guess. Joe Cocker's version of You can leave your hat on is so much better.
Meh
Yeah, early punk! Not a fan of the poems but the music is cool.
It was alright. Robert Smith's voice is an acquired taste. Not mine.
Never heard of this guy before. A smooth, jazzy, funky rock-pop sound. Not a particular fan of the singers voice.
I found this boring.
I found this boring.
It's Led Zeppelin so what can you say. Not a big fan of Plants' voice but the music is good and you can't deny their influence...
Iron Maiden's debut drips of raw energy, dual guitar work and Harris' phenomenal bass playing. A metal classic.
Nice punky pop stuff with a 60s vibe. Also the album is massive, 40 songs?!?
Electronic music. Not my cup of tea. Boring, repetitive.
70s disco funk. I dont like Le Freak, and most of hergestellt the music here is similar, but there is some good musicianship to be found here.
Too exhausting for me. Experimenten and noisy.
Nice work musically, Dylan's Voice can be hard to stomach.
Darker than expected. But it's Abba alright.
A pop - rock album by Tina Turner. As expected, not bad, nothi spectacular either.
Very good, I likes it a lot.
Very good, I like it a lot.
Very good, I like it a lot.
Sooooo boring
Funk Rock Ska Metal, very good
Thin Lizzy rules!
It's some kind of disco funk with comparatively high pitched singing. Good musically but not my cup of tea
Boring
Eletronic, partly trip-hop. I like the voice of the singer, though this music is not really to my taste
One of my favorite albums. 70s prog rock at its best.
Not too bad. Morriseys voice is not quite my thing, but there's a lot happening in the music.
Funk. Not bad, nothing special to me, but I'm no expert.
Meh. OK, Indie Rock style.
Punk! I like it, has everything a good punk record needs.
Blues, played skillfully and with a lot of energy. I like it!
Not for me, though it's not really bad. Just bores me.
It's just like the other Morrissey Album in this 1001 list. Ok pop-punk, nit too bad but a bit annoying.
Well, again Led Zeppelin. I understand their significance, but, as Stairway to Heaven stays my favourite song of theirs, I don't think I can be considered a true fan.
I like it, Pop-Rock as it's supposed to be.
It's a Rap Album with some interesting moments but overall Rap's not my cup of tea.
Very smooth indeed.
Nice, 80s-sounding Pop-punk. May listen again, but probably will not.
This is older than what I usually listen to, and I had reservations judging from the cover, but I liked it. Nice production and guitars, good songwriting.
I never heard Ella Fitzgerald
conciously before. I liked it.
I really like Drive. Unfotunately for my taste the rest of the album is not nearly as good.
From today's standpoint it's hard to imagine what three impact of this album was. For me, it sounds like the Beach Boys. It's ok, I guess
This made Metallica what they are today: the biggest metal band in the world. Disputed as either the last great or the first bad Metallica album I rate this solid 4.
Boring. I don't get this kind of music. There are so many skilled musicians and songwriters out there, why would you listen to this boredom in layers?
I'm not into Rap. I can't really judge this but I don't like it.
Meh
Never let me down is one of the best DM tracks, the rest is ok but a bit repetitive
Nah, none of this is for me.
Soft Folk stuff from the 60s. Didn't really catch my attention
Boring. I didn't like it in the 90s and don't like it now.
It was a lot better than "Owner of a lonely heart". If you like 70s Prog it will probably be for you. Good musicality, none of the melodies stuck, but with prog usually you need more than one listen.
Prozessione die jinge für'et Janis, all die Helde, die würden belohnt!
It was Ok I guess. Pop with a little bit of punk influence, not as bad as the horrendous cover made me think. Go look up the cover originally planned if you are interested..
Boring, David Bowie wannabe music. Not for me.
I like it, it rocks. Janis Joplin was just so good!
"Well, I dig your style, too, man. Got the whole cowboy thing goin'."
As a younger Gen-X er I was suprised that Faith No More were around for as long as they were. I never cared for them that much back in the day, but this albums sounds great for 1989, when I was listening to Roxette and MJ.
Nigerian Jazz and Funk. It's and interesting listen and Fela Kuti was an interesting person, but it's not for me.
Synth Pop. Not bad, nothing special either.
I think I hear a fog horn: "Boooooooooring!"
This is known to be U2s best. Not a big fan of their's, but I agree. This is good.
If you know ZZ Top you get what you'd expect. I liked it better than their most played hits like i.e. "Legs". BLuesy Rock.
I prefer her early 90s stuff. This was a bit boring.
RATM rules. Good Album.
Politically charged fast paced Rap Classic. Chuck D has one of the coolest voices in Rap as far as I am concerned.
Good. I prefer this over his pure folk sutff.
I like Tom's voice as long as he uses it "conventionally". His high pitched pressurized (I don't know how to put it) singing is not for me, neither is the experimental nature of this album. One or two Ok-ish songs.
Well, Ok, I guess. Some good songs, some boring.
Rock and Roll, not bad, not that revolutionary either...
Meh, Message in the bottle is the only song that stuck. Not bad per se, but boring for me.
A nice 70s Hard Rock Album. Production and some sound ideas are a bit dated, but I consider it still very enjoyable.
Yeah, Muddy Waters is cool and all, but his way of repeating lines or words in the chorus gets on my nerves. Also, it's just a little too old for me. I appreciate for what it was at the time and the grounds it layed, but it's too far back to enjoy it for more than academical reasons.
I never got into Muse, this didn't change with this Album.
I still hate the Fugees for what they did to Killing me softly. Didn't listen and will rate poorly.
Rap is not for me
The Generator gave me the third Rap Record in a Row, that's too much. Didn't listen.
Finally at the end of the week something good. Obviously, as a guitar and metal guy Hendrix' influence is clear; I never took the time to listen to one of his albums in full. Set aside the occasional psychedelic stuff it's very good and straightforward.
I never got Coldplay. Boring and with a whiny voice.
Meh, this was not for me in the 90s and it still isn't today.
Meh, some nice tunes but I guess my musical horizon isn't broad enough.
Not the biggest RHCP fan, judging by their singles, but this was better than expected. Shame Kiedis is such a bad singer. I am struggling between 3 and 4 stars, but his voice unfortunatly for them makes me go to the lower score.
I liked it. Never was a fan when she was still around, but I have to admit, I missed out. Good album.
I didn't like them in the 90s and I don't like them now. Justified and Ancient lifts them to 2 stars.
Funk from Nigeria with GInger Baker. A tad exhausting for my taste, not a big fan of the vocals.
Yeah, Ok I gues, maybe it's just too old for me...
What can I say - solid 5 stars from me. One of the best albums of all time in my opinion.
Ugh, what was that? Apparantly a story about pedophilia, musically accompanied by 70s soft-erotic music with half-spoken lyrics. Not for me.
I heard it yesterday and today nealry all of it is forgotten. Not a goof sign. Some sort of pop-punk of the early 80s. Not bad, nothing special either.
Nice, old-ish Funk. I like it, but because of its age won't probably listen again.
I guess I'm to young. I liked Charles' appearance in Blues Brothers but this has too much slow vilin centered stuff for my taste. Some of the songs rock, though.
Rap is not my kind of music, but this was interesting. A lot of different moods in the songs, I liked it better than most Rap albums I got so far.
It's interesting to hear early Queen, still in search for direction, but with most of their trademarks already in place. A bit lacking in the songwriting department for my taste, but for me Queen always was a "greatest hits" band (of which they have plenty). Between 2 and 4 but there's Brian May, soooo...
Exhausting to listen to but considering this came out in 1998 it brought something fresh to the scene. Definetly not boring which is a plus. Torn between 3 and 4 I'll give it 4 for being up my alley more than other stuff.
I like it very much; Freebird may be a joke today but obviously for a reason; it's a good song. I'm torn between 4 and 5, but as I reserve 5 stars for my all time greats this is a very good 4.
Ok, I guess. I wanted to like it, and some tracks are quite cool, some are boring to me, though. I don't know what to make of this, really.
I never liked the singers voice or kind of singing, but the album is musically more diverse than I gave them credit for before hearing it. I wouldn't have needed to listen to 739 songs, though, most double albums are bloated, this is no exception.
I prefered the first Kinks album I got in my journey through the 1001, though this was not bad. Maybe my expectations were higher because I liked "Arthur" so much.
It's a police album alright. I liked how it was more diverse than I expected but still sounded like the Police, some punk, some jazz influences. Overall probably I won't come back to it again. Solid 3 stars.
