1001 Albums Summary

Ramones by Ramones

Short and repetitive but it paved the way for the punk rock I do absolutely love. A raw album with only a couple of memorable tracks but tons of energy. I get why it’s such a beloved album for those who hadn’t heard anything like it before.

Odelay by Beck

I remember this album from my middle school days. It always just seemed like a lot of nonsense set to good music, but it was always fun to listen to. I still really like the same tracks I liked before and I had a good time reminiscing.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen

I’ve never been a huge fan of Bruce Springsteen’s voice but I actually liked this album more than I thought I would. Probably not something I’ll play again but it had a solid message I can appreciate.

Disintegration by The Cure

I’ve never listened to Disintegration in its entirety and although some of the drawn-out intros got a bit tiresome it was well worth it.

Mothership Connection by Parliament

A little funk is just what I needed to pull myself out of one. I couldn’t help but feel the joy with some head bopping and a little smirk on my face even when it seems like the world around me is a complete mess.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire

Kinda boring but I did enjoy the organ music and that’s something.
