1001 Albums Summary

The songs were a bit too slow for me at first and then I really started enjoying when Intervention played. I also really like Black Wave/Bad Vibrations, The Well and the Lighthouse, No Cars Go and My Body is a Cage. Definitely a good first recommendation I'm excited to listen to more.

Way too slow for my liking. I can see why other people like it. All the songs fit the album well, just not my cup of tea. Album art is also beautiful.

Too slow for me again. I do like when they start an album with a talking segment but that was really the only part I liked. Not for me.

Most too slow but I did like 3 songs

This one is really random but I like Havalina

Songs are way too long for normal listening but are perfect for my Utopian Scholastic and my Mermaids playlists.

Another painfully slow album. It's ok once again not my thing.

Again a little slow but I love Wolfman Jack

I'm not even finishing that is crazy twangy and not at all my thing

Again very slow not my thing

Already loved this album I love Doo Wop and Everything is Everything. Great songs love this one.

This would probably be more enjoyable in person honestly. I think if I had been introduced in that way I would like it more. Reminds me of the show the Young Ones. Not really my cup of tea to listen while driving or working out but would definitely go see it in concert or play it as a vinyl.

History Song, Northern Whale, Behind the Sun and Nature Springs are all good on first listen. Almost sounds like the Gorillaz but also kind of like some other indie bands mixed in.

I obviously loved Seven Nation Army already but surprised to see how many other songs I liked from them.

Not my thing again but would be cool for movie soundtracks or enjoyable live.

A good one to throw on in the background while reading I love this one. I would love to have this on vinyl.

It's giving the music that would play in the liminal space that is an old 80s Kane's store.

Not for me again. I really don't like the slow folky harmonica type music. There are other artists that make this type of music that I prefer. I wonder if people tend to consider slow music more artistic and elevated because humans have a tendency to think slow speech indicates confidence? I'm tired of it personally I like faster music.

I usually love Frank Sinatra but yet again whoever compiles this list chooses the SLOWEST albums. Just because music is slow doesn't make it better than other music. Considering dipping out of this whole thing if I get one more slow, droll, album. I want to be awake by the end of the album and these are not it.

Oof just as I was complaining about the music chosen being too slow they finally give me a faster album. I already loved I Believe in a Thing Called Love but my other new favorite is Friday Night. Though a lot of the album is a little samey and chaotic so not the best but definitely better than what I've been getting.

Dang ok this album rocks love nearly all the songs. Some of them are ungodly long but many of them are worth it.

I actually really like that this album is only 2 songs long and the first one is really cool. Another album I would love to see in a physical setting like an art exhibit or aquarium or something.

Not super my thing again. Live would probably be cool but all the songs kind of sound the same to me. Just not really my style of music.

I like Bjork as a person and public figure but her music is not really for me. Too many sounds going on it's a little overstimulating. I think it would be cool paired with an art exhibit or something but just to listen to in the car is not really my vibe.

Not for me not my thing.

I can tell the music is done well just again way too slow for me

Too slow again for me but would make a good movie soundtrack

Obviously Walk This Way and Sweet Emotion are classics but I find the rest of their music to be a little corny lol. Not bad but didn't add any new songs to my rotation.

Again a little corny for me not my thing

20 minute songs?!? Y'all gotta be joking. They are good though I will give you that.

Not for me

I really like Bob's Yer Uncle, Loose Fit, and Step On

More my husband's thing than mine

Obviously Closer is one of the best songs of all time but I also really liked Heresy and Ruiner sounds like something from Queen of the Damned so I really loved this one.

I could definitely see this being a soundtrack to a film. Really cool songs. I would definitely throw this on in the background on vinyl or something while I clean my house or do whatever. Very cool though not my usual for daily drive listening.

I had never heard any of Courtney Love's songs before but I really liked this one. Never realized the movie Jennifer's Body was a reference to this album. Pretty cool.

I already loved Our House so no surprise I liked a few other songs as well. Definitely a vinyl I would like to own but only 1 less star because it's not music I would listen to all the time.

House of Fun is one of my siblings' favorite songs. Yet another song called Our House that I like this week as well is pretty funny. Nostalgic for me but not my usual listen.

I liked side B a lot more than A I love a lot of the ways she plays with vintage sounds in the latter half of the album. I'll definitely come back to this one but 3 stars just because I'm not super into the first half.

Love this. Not something I would listen to in the car but would absolutely love to have this on vinyl to throw in the background of reading or a calm night in. Great for chill parties and the like too. Though I would make an exception for a late night drive this would be perfect for that. Perfect cool mood setting music.

Obviously 5 stars just for Tiny Dancer but I also really loved Holiday Inn.

A lot of the songs are a little too slow for me but I definitely like Sai Dessa. This album came out the day before I was born!

I respect him for the music legend that he is, but this style of music is really not for me. So much of what is on here is this super slow folky type of music and I've said it before but it seems like a lot of people take music that is slower to be more artistic and contemplative in the same way many people perceive someone who takes their time to talk as more intelligent and confident. A bit of a flawed lens. The perception lacks depth and exceptions. Very much a lot of the same sounds and not the variety I would expect of such a large list of music.

Obviously all 4 stars are for Don't You Want Me but the rest of the songs are not really my thing.

Basically filled my Frutiger Aero playlist up with this entire album

The actual instrumental music is good but the vocals absolutely ruin it for me

This one doesn't exist on Spotify so I'm just giving it a neutral rating of 3 since I can't even listen to it
