1001 Albums Summary

pure magic and nostalgia

my first reggae album and okay cool now it won’t be my last

was a bit too excited for this to be over. yawn

big fan of this form of yearning

real good i just would not listen in full again

blissfully simple

who the hell gave this guy a mic. i cannot stand him. bassist slapped tho

yes yes yes yes yes for the ones that truly bop but not a no skip

fun funky elements

gee i quite like it. it being live took off a star, but honestly would’ve been so enjoyable in person Lost Someone pissed me off bc my ex texted me today… leave me alone

this could’ve been an email first many songs are killer, obviously.

a masterpiece. haven’t listened through the whole thing in years, and was surprised by the variety.

i am a fan

kinda just fine

really enjoyed and excited by the first song, but a bit downhill from there

i’m having fun and then i start listening to the lyrics

pleasantly surprised, even knew 2 of them well.

DNF after about half. i’m so bored by it, and don’t feel the need to listen to it in full. you’d think it would work semi well at the gym but every track just drags

first half is great because of the nostalgia. second to last song started strong, has some Portishead vibes in the instrumental that I enjoyed. but the vocals destroyed that vibe. last song is horrific im sorry

can i get a glass of water?

this actually physically hurt to listen to, in particular the screeching guitar. i used to looove the velvet underground but this has me really questioning my taste. almost gave it a 2 for the moments of solace in Here She Comes Now and parts of Sister Ray.

i can’t get past the singers voice. otherwise just feels so lacking depth, anything interesting really.

her voice is tantalizing, and the sound overall is so crisp and clean. love

easy listening but very blah, nothing really stood out

i can’t explain why i fuck with this but somehow, i do. was previously very familiar with Road Runner, Pablo Picasso, and Hospital but nothing else. maybe it’s the crisp sound quality w lazy vocals (not derogatory)? expected this to be an early 2000s album tbh but maybe that’s aging me. he just gets it. i do go to bakeries all day long. okay after Modern World i’m getting real sick of the lyrics men write about women. not on this particular album, compared to other albums on this list, just got reminded of it. alright now that i’m through Dance With Me, this is too long. but the alternative ones slap! maybe 3.5. can’t decide how much i enjoy.

great variety of sound and pace in here. certainly not for all but certainly for me. will be revisiting, can’t believe i hadn’t heard of them before. favorites are probably laughingstock, jenny, last harbor

fuck yeah dude

oh this isn’t presley? first few instrumental notes were good then his voice made me immediately angry about being subjugated to 56 min of it. i’ve gotten to 20% amnesia and holy shit this is terrible!! why is it in this list!!

i love lentils, beans, seaweed and rice. not for me at all. i’m not sure it’s for anyone, so many other albums could’ve taken its place on the list.

tired of misogyny being our culture

solid 3.5

kinda disappointed, he didn’t come close to capturing the agony of allergies. rash is nothing, try anaphylaxis. similarly, cars are cars could’ve been a deep critique of our car dependent hell hole. maybe i should get into songwriting, im feeling inspired. otherwise really enjoyed a couple of songs, while some drifted by without my noticing. standouts include Song About the Moon, Train in the Distance

always will rock w this

nah dude. was gonna be nice with a 2 bc it’s better than the first one i got from him but nah can’t do this.

i really feel like he didn’t need to abandon his son for these albums. but i suppose we wouldn’t have had jeff if we knew him otherwise. none of my favorites from tim are on this, and it’s all very Okay. cool to hear some potential influence on jeff. can understand people not enjoying this, but it works well enough for me. and there ya have it, my entire review ended up being about jeff buckley and not his fathers album. whoops

this makes me gag update: omg why do we need to use the n word?? we dont!

oh my god .. this BANGER?! immediate 5 after the first measure of bitter sweet symphony.

snore. he’s obviously so talented but nothing stood out, and got tired of sad yearning boy lyrics.

WHO TOOK THE BOMP?

wow i did not realize every song ever written was on this album. many lyrics that continue to be ever meaningful in our hellish developed world.

i hate men. beats good👍

yeah this sucks

lyrics are

really surprised by how many i knew

i love talk heads
