1001 Albums Summary

Really enjoyed this! I completely lost my prev review which is annoying, but generally I thought I would like it less than I do because it’s completely instrumental, however I ended up really vibing to it, especially as I kept listening to it. Instrumentals usually put me to sleep but I was able to listen to this album on the drive home with no problem! I really liked it, 8/10!

I like this! A few songs stood out to me: Take Me Out, The Dark of the Matinee, Cheating on You, Darts of Pleasure, and Michael. Is this band ultimately for me? I don’t really think so. But it was a good listen for my drive to work this morning.

1. Really vibing with this song. It was mostly instrumental but this one fucks. I was bopping and grooving around my bedroom. 2. I kinda forgot this one already. 3. WE ARE NORTH AMERICAN SCUM. 4. Scratched my ears somehow. Nice. 5. To be fair, I wasn’t really paying attention to this one, sorry. 6. Definitely a bop. I liked bobbing my head to this one. 7. I liked the lyrics and vibe of this one! 8. Okay! I’m listening to the last two songs with one earbud in which may be affecting my experience and this one is a bit underwhelming as the title song. 9. Obviously the stand out song on the album. This is the only song I ever knew from LCD Soundsystem before hearing the album and, I’ll be honest, it does feel a bit out of place on this album. Overall, some of the songs fit well together sonically (from my limited understanding of music) but mostly they seem kind of disjointed to me. I did like it overall and it’s very fun to vibe to, but it just didn’t do it for me as a whole. I may try and listen to it again at another time. 6.5/10.

Very okay for me. I know it’s technically good but I don’t think it’s for me. 5/10.

I haven’t finished the full thing but my god I do not care for this. They are clearly good at what they do but The Smashing Pumpkins are not for me.

Honestly great album! I enjoy The Beach Boys and I liked this a lot.
