1001 Albums Summary

i'm going to treat this listening experience as an encounter with a music album, not as a soundtrack to a musical because the latter requires a visual medium for me as well. why are there so many sound effects??? makes it so literal. very generic vocals, which is not necessarily a bad thing. 'don't leave me now' i hated, i get that its supposed to be sad, mournful and desperate but i thought it was cheaply this way. i was so done by pt.3. 'hey you' surprising at first, but i was disappointed with the same theme. 'comfortably numb' is very good, a strong stand alone piece. i have read more about the plot on wiki halfway through the album and it adds to the experience a whole lot but im not sure this is something im looking for. glad to have experienced it though. 'the trial' is so nightmare before christmas coded.

the songs were too long. guitar solos do nothing for me. very pleasant to listen to, albeit too boring at times. good old american road trip core. enjoyed it even more when i imagined myself one of the characters from that 70s show. eric foreman did approve, i'm sure. stand outs for me: who'll stop the rain, run through the jungle, up around the bend, long as i can see the light

bone machine - this kind of music just makes me annoyed with no particular reason for it. it has some 00s pop punk moments thar could work for me but the gaspy choppy style overpowers it. break my body - i'm forgetting about it while listening to it. something against you - the metal screeching sounds?? the hell?? am i supposed to lose my hearing to go through the rest of the album?? broken face - come up with more annoying way to sing the title i bet you (you can't) gigantic - a lady has come to save the day and i applaud her for it. this is very your friend's hot older sister vibes. still, does nothing for me. okay they calmed down by where is my mind and omg it works now. i know what they are doing here and why, which was missing from the previous songs. tony's theme - ralph kaminski called, wants his barking back. there is just something about the beats of this album that make my cortisol levels skyrocket. cool cover.

this is not bad per se, just monotone indie slop. maybe it did something in 2010 but in 2026 it's just not it.
