1001 Albums Summary

It's ok, very 60s.

Great, baroque folk/pop music. I personally have purposefully (for some reason) held off listening to Nick Drake. Still on the fence around his vocals, not personally a fan, I find them too contrived and affected. The music is fantastic, great songwriting. I hear the influence in 90s bands such as Belle and Sebastian, et al. Great album.

Mid-tempo rockers, turning the page on the quiet-loud-quiet from the grunge era, adding their touches of Radiohead influence and brit-pop bombastic singing, this album is ok, if not a bit repetitive. Seems to occupy a safe space in rock-n-roll here, nothing "edgy" or similar. Songs are decent and easy sing-a-longs (albeit not Beatles sing-a-long good).

Stadium anthemic pop punk that carries on the punk tradition of social commentary. Coming out post 9/11, during the Bush administration, its Green Day's take on the current state of America and the decay it sees in suburbia and the american psyche. Its a concept album, I assume, that has that steel thread of a american character passing through this place and time in history. Overall, good songs, better than my previous album of Coldplay, but they're all generic 90s/early-00s rock.

I'm not sure why this on this list and not a White Stripes album. This album doesn't belong on a list like this.

First time listen. Dancing Queen has almost 2 Billion listens on Spotify, wow! Good Album, 4.

Its a nice album, ethereal 80s synths and reverb drums. Quite listenable, but dated as well. 4

4, quite synth heavy

Riff-heavy, guitar really seems to be the focus of this album. Has a real 90s feel. 1 listen, 3 stars

5. The album begins with perhaps the most famous rattling chord in rock history to start an album. And it's the Beatles....5.

I think this was the first vinyl LP I bought (1998 from the sticker), from the $1 bin of course :). One of rock's early supergroups, sounding like Simon & Garfunkel, just more 60s...man. The vocals, when singing together is great adding a layer of complexity to songs that are simple in their acoustic accompaniment. The strongest songs here written by Stills. 4

70s soul funk. Great band. 4

punk rock, kinda run-of-the-mill punk. 3.
