My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello

good songs, very repetitive, but good

I See You by The xx

i mean its alright like, overrated af imo. it was a good listen, but why tf is it here, why does this album have to be here, never heard of this guys in my life, why oh why do i have to listen to them before i die, there are so many more artists from this time that are more worth listening to before you die.

i liked this album

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
May 01 2026

Im quite fond of maps

Sex Packets by Digital Underground
May 07 2026

good ols school beats, bad lyrics

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
May 13 2026

i guess iggy pop really is an idiot, he cant make a good album

OK Computer by Radiohead
May 16 2026

4 very good songs, rest of them im not that depressed to like them so much, so its a four star for me.

Seventh Tree by Goldfrapp
May 18 2026

good vibes ahh music

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
May 19 2026

For one minute I liked the first song, then I realized it was jazz, thank god it was jazz because it further proved that i hate jazz, this is just another example of how trash jazz is

Steve McQueen by Prefab Sprout
May 20 2026

i had high hopes coming to this album and for the first songs i did like it. but then i didnt, i reaaly wished i would have liked it more, i just cant. two good songs and the rest appears to be another whole album

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
May 21 2026

good heavy metal, no ac dc

The Bends by Radiohead
May 22 2026

I feel like putting something less than a four is crime (?) just for the influence and popularity of the band, but its like OK computer, some good songs, the others didnt do it for me, just not my style.

May 23 2026

man, i love me a live album, a breath of fresh air. i really liked this album, it seems longer than 30 minutes, i felt completely immersed on that live performance and the crowd really helped it. good listen overall.

A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile
May 24 2026

liked some parts, but some sounds where not there, started off kinda weird, then it came back, idk... i have mixed feelings

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
May 25 2026

Bosa nova, nice, it didnt hit that much tho, i really liked that it was both on english and portuguese, i dont hear enough bosa nova to know if that is very common

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
May 26 2026

didnt do it for me, too strange, i mean its something different, I get it, I get how this album got into the 1001, a few songs felt like the song at the end of a good movie, but hearing a whole album like that or worse wasnt for me,

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
May 27 2026

what even has to be said about this album. bob dylan as a musician, as a storyteller, as a singer, as a composer, he is unique in every way. He really is the most influencial musician of all time. This album, even though isnt not my favorite from bob dylan is perfect as a whole, it keeps a style, all the music is there and it tells a story, about the movement in that era and many of those songs could still be applied to modern issues. The lenght of the songs isnt an issue as in all the songs Dylan could go on forever telling that story and it keeps each songs reaches a unique flow. The harmonica in every song is the cherry on top. Phenomenal album overall. Top three for me: Like a rolling stone Desolation row Queen Jane

Revolver by Beatles
May 28 2026

its the beatles, what else can you say. i didnt like i love you to and the last song, felt like they where out of place

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 30 2026

perfect album imo. has it all, compact, style, lyrics, i like it all, would listen to it a thousand more times. this is what i like

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
May 31 2026

I think the obly reason why this album is in the 1001 is because it was released postmortem, cause musically...

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Jun 02 2026

I had already heard this album, and now i think i liked it even more. Another live album, now the crowd was more civilized, but it was still there, it helped. So yes, great album, would listen again. man i love the blues

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Jun 03 2026

sometimes it had a good beat, but the rest was not there. bjork is still a good artist, here it didnt show that much

Beautiful Freak by Eels
Jun 05 2026

to freaky for me, it's rock but too chill. Eels had that banger from shrek tho, and all these songs are like that one. For that 3 stars

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Jun 06 2026

Good album 👍🏿

Bossanova by Pixies
Jun 08 2026

Jun 09 2026

Jun 12 2026

i really liked this album. the first song was not good but then it cut off and then the real album started and i really liked it. at times i felt like i was listening to beatles songs

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Jun 13 2026

this is the shit, what 80s music should be. so fun, good listens, wide range, and this album isnt just the 2 main songs, it has sleeper bangers like when you were mine, all through the night. liked it very much

Deserter's Songs by Mercury Rev
Jun 14 2026

holes: banger, the rest, preeetty disappointing

Station To Station by David Bowie
Jun 24 2026

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Jun 26 2026

Fuck, what an album, I dont know what Metallica does for me but I just love it. Other heavy metal doesnt do it for me, but this band, this album.... wow, it just gets me going. Incredible. i wasnt going to give it 5 stars, but to live is to die is there, so its a 5 star. Amazing song with that intro and outro.

Dookie by Green Day
Jun 30 2026

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Jul 01 2026

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Jul 07 2026

Music by Madonna
Jul 09 2026

idk, not a big madonna fan, didnt do it for me

Olympia 64 by Jacques Brel
Jul 10 2026

Reeeaaally liked it. A breath of fresh air, a change from all the rock pop rap and shit. A live album on top of that... chef kiss. Mr Jacques has a really good voice and it did it for me. I think another reason I liked it is because it reminded me of my grandfather. It brought me back when I was little and spending the days at his apartment. He would play this kind of music on the record player and it had unbelievable sound. I now have that memory I didn't know I had. Idk, maybe it's that....

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Jul 11 2026

back to the same, it didnt amaze me. it was good

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Jul 14 2026

some good songs, another not that memorable, mid album overall

Jul 15 2026

the first two songs I really liked, and in that moment i thought: if all the songs were like this in this album Im gonna really enjoy it. It didnt happened. At some point it started to experiment and the songs were really strange. too bad

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Jul 16 2026

What an album, amazing album, even better knowing its a debut album. Sultans of swing might me a top 5 song oat tbh. And all the other songs accompany it very well. Mark Knopfler the musician you are, best guitar i've heard in my life. Wild west song underrated song. And Down to the waterline amazing song to start the album. This is what a 5 star album should be like.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Jul 18 2026

i do like live albums. i do not like jazz

Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams
Jul 19 2026

honestly, cant find anything wrong with this album, really enjoyed it listening it at night after argentina lost. It has a little bit of everything, and it does it all right. I wanted to give find a reason to give it a 4 star, because its not that known an artist, but fuck it, 5 star

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Jul 22 2026

What to say abt this. Amazing album. Heard it 5 times in a row. It starts in a sad kinda way with bridge over trouble water, amazing song btw, and el condor pasa, and then it turned it to cecilia another amazing song and way happier. And it keeps this dynamic all over the album. It does it very well and i dont remember another album doind this

Spiderland by Slint
Jul 23 2026

didnt do it for me, too weird

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Jul 24 2026

Aug 04 2026

I See You by The xx
Aug 05 2026

i mean its alright like, overrated af imo. it was a good listen, but why tf is it here, why does this album have to be here, never heard of this guys in my life, why oh why do i have to listen to them before i die, there are so many more artists from this time that are more worth listening to before you die.

Raw Like Sushi by Neneh Cherry
Aug 06 2026

I want to put it like a 4 cause i had fun listening to it, had some good beats, good experience. But it is a 3

Homework by Daft Punk
Aug 07 2026

Listening to this album felt like homework. At first I was a little bit excited, like: nice, daft punk, lets do this. The start was ok but it got a little bit repetitive, but it felt like it was building up to around the world. Then around the world came and I was like: niceee. And then it too got repetitive. And the rest of the album was downhill from there. Didnt want to finish my homework but I did cause I had to. So yeah. Two stars cause it wasnt like completely unhearable, its daft punk after all

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Aug 12 2026

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Aug 14 2026

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Aug 17 2026

not for me, at first it was okay ig, then it started adding random noises and it molested me.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Aug 18 2026

The Renaissance by Q-Tip
Aug 19 2026

had low expectations and it surprised me, really good listen. the songs made sense one with another. there was a transition at one point that was craaazy
