1001 Albums Summary

- nice synths - i like my hometown

- iggy mix (2023 remaster) - reminds me of velvet underground, pixies, who, clash, etc - i kind of want to know what the bowie mix sounds like now - i like the guitars - favorite track: i need somebody - rating: 2/5

- he looks like robert pattinson - his voice is lower than i thought - i like some of the piano and harmonica instrumentals (reminds me of billy joel) - favorite tracks: adam raised a cane, darkness on the edge of town - rating: 3/5

- tiny dancer remains fire - nice instrumentals as usual - i feel like i'm losing it is tiny dancer actually good or am i just used to it. because the rest of this album feels kind of eh. the instrumentals are very nice but i'm not really invested in the lyrics etc - favorite tracks: tiny dancer - rating: 3/5 because i gave bruce springsteen a 3/5 and tiny dancer is carrying this

- i love the sound -- i've been listening to a lot of funk lately and this has a similar feeling - the sax... hell yeah - i probably never would've listened to this album outside of this site but i have been wanting to get into rap and hip hop for so long and this seems like a great starting point - favorite tracks: luck of lucien, can i kick it?, go ahead in the rain - rating: 4/5

- simon and garfunkle my goats - hazy shade of winter... is this a gerard way reference guys - fun instrumentals and lyricism - the beatles if they chilled a little bit - favorite tracks: bookends theme, old friends, america, a hazy shade of winter - rating: 4/5

- cool funky sound - looking up translations of the lyrics so i can understand what they're singing about but i would listen to this just for the sound of it tbh - from what i can glean from the translations i like the lyrics - cool west side story interpolation in pedro navaja - favorite tracks: pedro navaja, plástico - rating: 4/5

- ooh i already like the sound - providence is a cool break up -- i feel like these types of interludes are much less common in the age of digital media - this kind of sounds like if you poured the smiths and nirvana into a bowl and stirred and then spilled something else in - also banger album cover - favorite tracks: the sprawl, a) the wonder - rating: 3.5/5

- another cool album cover - oh i really like this - this guy looks like ryan ross - i cannot keep saying “wow this sounds so funky and cool” about all of these but. unfortunately it is true - i really like the vocals i think they work well with the instrumentals - favorite tracks: broken drum, que’ onda guero, e-pro, missing - rating: 4/5

- justice for linda thompson in this album listing - i like the instrumentation - i also like the album cover - i like the trad folk elements - favorites: i want to see the bright lights tonight, withered and died - rating: 3/5

- i like the faster tempo it opens with - good but not necessarily something i'm itching to revisit etc - favorites: 100%, shoot, sugar kane, chapel hill - rating: 3/5

- i'm going to try really hard to give it a fair shot. but jfc this guy - favorites: spaceship, jesus walks - rating: 2.5/5

- oh this instrumentation is so cool - i love a song that builds an entire narrative - ekphrasis!!!! - musical theater-esque - somebody show this guy to lemony snicket - 10 minute montana song feels unnecessary im sorry david ackles - favorites: american gothic, ballad of the ship, oh, california!, blues for billy whitecloud - rating: 3/5

- i like whatever distortion/effect they have on the guitar at the beginning of cherub rock - all of the guitars are sick actually - acoustic on disarm is cool - the gerard way of it all - maybe i'll finally listen to mellon collie in full now - favorites: rocket, disarm, spaceboy - rating: 3.5/5

- american pie stays a banger - i like the sound and a lot of the lyricism - i'm just not sure that i would go out of my way to listen to much besides the title track here (maybe also vincent) - till tomorrow begins w a similar cadence to ap but i like the lyricism - wait okay i think i'm wrong i also like the grave ("eternity knows what we've done") - this is my born in the usa. maybe - don maclean i was unfamiliar with your game - everybody loves me, baby is fun i like a lot of the lyrics - babylon feels a little bit disconnected from the rest of the tracks - favorites: american pie, vincent - rating: 3.5/5

- i remain obsessed with this album cover - i was already familiar with liability, supercut, perfect places, writer in the dark - i feel like her music is maybe not 100% my style but i do like some of the songs - favorites: green light, supercut - rating: 3/5

- once again, the gerard way of it all - cool instrumental title track - tbh i think it drags a little but the good tracks are really good - favorites: cupid de locke, mellon collie and the infinite sadness, 1979, - rating: 3/5

- i like the sound - kind of smiths x bo burnham? a little? - i like the synths - there's nothing i especially dislike here there's just nothing that especially grabs at me - favorites: flitcraft - rating: 2.5/5

- i love a live album and i have never heard an album live from a prison. sick - something about his voice works so well with this recording style/quality. and hearing the audience respond, him laugh, etc is fun - west tennessee/arkansas accents fascinate me (eg. loo-is-iana) - i have respect for this even if it isn't necessarily something i would go out of my way to listen to as an album. it has some strong tracks though and if i liked slow country more i think i would like this a lot - jackson would be fun to listen to with people - favorites: folsom prison blues, 25 minutes to go - rating: 3/5

- i like the instrumentation - once again not entirely my thing but mostly enjoyable to listen to anyway - i like the instrumentation in down by the river a lot - favorites: round & round (it won't be long) - rating: 3/5

- dinosaur sr when - similar sound to pavement which i like - this is another one where i was just a little bored the whole time. give me more funk please - favorites: freak scene - rating: 2/5

- barely had time to listen - fun and funky but nothing made me stop in my tracks - rating: 3/5

- banger album cover - we Do Not need this fascist groove thang... yeah this is funky and fun enough - cold war era art stays fascinating to me - favorites: penthouse and pavement, let's all make a bomb, song with no name - rating: 3.5/5

- sounds like it should be from like. 1978 or 1990 - i was honestly not paying close enough attention to have favorites - rating: 2.5/5

- come see, come saw is fun - born in '69 is catchy - i need to stop listening to these while i'm doing other things my memory is awful - rating: 3/5

- i do not know if this is technically big band jazz but i enjoyed it - bye bye love was stuck in my head all day - i just love jazz. i love some banger instrumentals and some backup singers and some beautiful vocals - there is a certain kind of wailing string opener that a lot of slower/sadder jazz pieces use and it enthralls me every single time bro - sometimes they sound like the pieces that would play in the background of old peanuts features/shows - only not a 5/5 because some of the slow songs blurred together for me. cut down the length of the album a little bit and it would've been so perfect - honorable mentions: hey good lookin', you are my sunshine - favorites: bye bye love, half as much, it makes no difference now (I LOVE SWUNG RHYTHMS!!!!!!), don't tell me your troubles - rating: 4.5/5
