1001 Albums Summary

Overall it was a pretty solid album. However, it didn’t really grab me but I might listen to it again. Favorite tracks: only love can break your heart, birds and southern man. It’s a solid 3.5/5.

This album feels like every moment all plays into this jaw dropping, awe inspiring look at the end of the life of the artist. It explores these so incredibly well and does it with some interesting instrumentation, great sax solos, cool vocal performances that play to the strengths of bowie’s voice at this point in his life. I give this a 4/5.

Overall this a phenomenal album. Compared to their previous albums this one turns really dark and really gothic. And you can tell that straight away with the first song on this album which has got to be one of my favorite songs on this album. This album just captivates you straight away with the very dark and heavy guitar coupled with Robert Smith’s fantastic vocals.

Overall it’s a really good album. The minimalist arrangements really allow the lyrics and other individual parts like the drums, guitar and the base to really shine through. I feel like it’s a really brilliant record despite me not being familiar with their other records.

I’ve never really been a fan of Coldplay however this album really shocked me. It’s a well constructed alt rock record with really nice piano. Very enjoyable experience with many memorable tracks like “politik”, “daylight”, “in my place” and the title track.

The social commentary is the real star of this album. This rating is based solely on the apt social exposition. Huge credit for cultural, social, and political relevance. However I don’t think I’ll be listening to this album again any time soon.

I really enjoyed listening to this album. I like how it can’t really be categorized into one specific genre. The nice instrumentals coupled with his amazing voice were phenomenal.
