1001 Albums Summary

Commendable first album boys.

Great mixing. Covers many styles and samples.

Very mild, a little boring. Would be better live.

Lots of hits, knowing they're from Berklee kind of clashes with the very intimate southern and blues themes.

Outside of the hits it's pretty bland, Plastic Fantastic Lover is strange and clashes thematically.

Last song is cool, good length.

Would be a 4 star if actively going through a breakup. Crazy how young she was when this blew up.

It's all power chords, guitar tone is anemic. The "chugging" song is weird, were they forbidden to swear?

It's not for me. 2.5/5

What every 90s alt band wants to sound like. 4.2/5

Pretty good indie rock, 3.8/5

All sounds the same. Bad love songs with messy lyrics.

Wasnt what I expected, interesting sound. 3.8/5

Dont know what they're saying but it sounds good. 3.7/5

Probably scary as hell in 72, nowadays just fun goofy rock.

Funky 3.8/5

Tainted Love cant hold this up, "Seedy Films" had many flat vocal runs à la Yoko Ono. 1.5/5

Important. 4.8/5

Average outlaw country sound, not terrible but there is certainly better.

Wah Wah is cool, didn't enjoy this.

Still goes dooweeoooo, but less goofy than earlier albums.

Lots of sounds that kinda fit together. 3.2/5

Much better than 2008's Only By The Night. 3.8/5

Dozed in and out, It's average rock.

All sounds the same! But important nonetheless. 2.8/5

Couldn't even remember what this sounded like by the end of the day.

Yeah, im not listening to this man for 5 hours.

I liked this, could benefit from a re-listen. 3.7/5.

True neutral opinion on this, dont know if i'd call it essential listening.

Just cant match the energy of take on me. 2.7/5

If you like nick cave you'll love this. because he's in it.

She needs to leave him alone, he can't take any more heartbreak!

Looks like he's enjoying that banana.

More matured than the early albums.

Softer than the cover would suggest.

Very passionate french music. Too bad I cant speak french. 3.8/5

Didn't enthrall me, but then again should ambient music?

This was ok, a few strange vocal choices throughout. 3.3/5

It was fine, some songs lost me, but Life on Mars? Is great.

Excellent. 4.5/5

Need to relisten with lyrics on front of me. Damn good.

All sounded the same, couldn't relate. 2.5/5

Got kinda repetitive, not for me. 2.4/5

Really??? three Arcade Fire albums? 2.8/5

Pretty cool band I hadn't heard of. 3.7/5

Good album, quite heavy for the time.

Don't have much to say. 3.5/5

Short and sweet? Short and Slimey?

Singer songwriter that keeps each song fresh. Gonna revisit sometime.

Good music, terrible band name. 3.7/5

He seems mad about something. 4.6/5

Really really good.

I liked this, gonna revisit.

Almost tolerable.

Chunky and heavy, but hard to take them seriously when Morello sells $2000 guitars made with underpaid labor and Zach sits on his 30 million like a dragon. "I'm Tom Morello and this is my masterclass."

Hit after hit, THE Ozzy era album.

Cursive singing, lyrically bland Björk cover band. Though it could be a pretty good ambient album if they would keep their mouths shut. 2.4/5

The music and vocals aren't the problem here, it's the gross, pervy and strange lyrics. I have no wish to revisit this.

This poor band sounds so bored. There was what, 4 covers on this? None of them can stand up to the original.

Soft rock can get boring quick, luckily this was only 33 minutes. Definition of OK.

Interesting, guest vocals were nice. 3.4/5

Ok album, could use more rock.

Never gave Van Halen a chance, pleasantly suprised. 3.9/5

Not quite on the level of Prince or M.J. but suceeded in making an R&B record I didnt hate.

Enthralling music and he was only 19?! 4.5/5

It's what I expected from The Cure. Meh. 2.7/5

Their most popular release and for good reason. Not one track is out of place.

Zaney and Crass. Gotta admit it's a unique concept. 3.7/5

Not as good as his later work in my opinion. Apples to oranges I suppose. 3.8/5

The hits are great, the rest was average imo. 3.5/5

Both ambient and striking. 3.5/5

Conceptually very interesting, but not as gripping as i would have liked. 3.7/5

When I think of hip hop this is about what it sounds like. 3.6/5

A bit boring but not a terrible album. Unmistakeably the Arctic Monkeys. 2.9/5

Every big hit is on this, Mr Brightside is a classic for a reason. 3.9/5

Samples plus samples plus samples as well as some samples. 3.9/5

Clean and moody, like the crowd noise. I don't know music theory enough to fully appreciate this. 3.5/5

Too long, not my thing. 2.9/5

New wave without any edge. 2.7/5

Less whiney in his youth, still bob dylan voice though. 4.4/5

In a way hes scatting throughout. 3.1/5

A unique sound. 3.4/5

The hits are ok but the rest is so corny. Everything they do Judas Priest did so much better. 2.9/5

Nothing really to complain about. 3.4/5

Anthony Kiedis found dead under the bridge. 2.3/5

Classic but boring, sounds like one neverending song. 3/5

YEEOOOWWWW!! I AM THE MAN WHO ROCKS!!!

Not the best Queen album but i thoroughly enjoyed it. 3.9/5

Quit singing like this please and thank you.

4.4/5

Good folk songs about rock and vice versa. 3.8

Bass carried the whole way. First half wasn't very good but the second half made up for it. 3.1/5

Strange but pleasant. 3.6/5

O.K.

It was fine but I really don't like his voice.

Rambling lyrically. Not Bluesy enough while lacking the signature Dylan sound. 2.8/5

Oh! So british. 2.9/5

Very fun, title track stands out. 3.9/5

3.9/5

Not my thing.

I forgot I listened to this. 2.8/5

Probably wont listen again but its fine. 3.2

4.1/5

I just dont like TGD. 2.9/5

I dont think you can be sad listening to this.

Didn't hook me but the samples were fun. 2.9/5

3.9/5

Don't remember it that well, wasn't offensive. 2.9/5

Such extremely goofy song concepts. 3/5

Better than I expected from Blur. 3.1/5

Gentle and boring, like a doctors office. 2.8/5

All I can conclude is that I won't get my time back. 2.1/5

Pleasant if not entirely my thing. 3.4/5.

3.5/5

3.3/5

Really long 3.5/5

It can be quite good without the lyrics and vocals, its just jarring every few songs. 2.9/5

Really didn't grip me. So many similar sounding songs.

Lyrics are great, sounds very modern for its age.

3.5/5

Very dated, 2.3/5

3.3/5

We got one synth sound and were gonna run with it. 3.7/5

3.9/5

He sings like everything is a question. 2.1/5

Underwhelming cover but good music throughout.

Every song is some variation on "I'm the best rapper around! *spell name outloud a few times* repeat. Not bad but certainly repetitive. 2.6/5

Nothing that I didn't like. 4.2/5

Inoffensive and well written folk songs. 3.5/5

It's certainly an album you could listen to. 2.3/5

You could run a lap in the amount of time that drum solo takes. 3.9/5

Felt like a Sgt. Pepper cover band. 2.7/5

Haven't heard most of these. Was pleasant. 3.6/5

Not good but hard to look away from. Captivating. 2.8/5

Demands full attention.

Diverse sampling. 4.3/5

Was expecting so much worse from the reviews. 3.5/5

It's fine. That's all. 2.9/5

Man what the hell 1.2/5

3.8/5

Love the album, despise Rocky Raccoon

4.5/5

Certainly not the best Led Zeppelin album. 3.2/5

4.1/5
