1001 Albums Summary

grace knocks those boys outta the water. maybe too sleepy to give this one a proper evaluation. appreciated the production

In theory I should love this. But Mr. Yusuf's voice doesn't do much for me. Espescially with that reverb effect. 🤮 these songs are floating right past me. a stranger on an innertube humming to themselves. do like "into white" and "father and son" wish there was more vocal harmonies

When I first saw the album I thought I was in for a cheesy easy listening. Very happy to be wrong. It is easy listening but only because the instrumentation, the voices, and lyrics all feel so seamless and whole. Love that it straddles the line of being overtly political without feeling preachy.

Lush production and clever lyricism. Kanye at his best. Drenched in misogyny. The most potent part of the album to me was the final Last Poets sample. A group that's still so insanely relevant to what this country is experiencing.

this is doing nothin for me ogre battle p fun 2nd half definitely better but they're still kinda sliding off me. it was fine

I dunno why but I strongly suspect neil young fans are total dorkwads. I liked it

I love Jonathan Richman and his lovers

Fun catchy riffs How do people talk about music

preferred natty dread

beatles r gud whoulda thunk it

based on the title and subject matter was expecting this to be odder and more aggressive. it's kind of stumbling around in the first few tracks occasionally bumping into something with energy but never grasping it. not hating it but it doesn't have the j u i c e

probably wont come back to this much. maybe discovering i'm not a huge punk fan. that being said, it's crunchy sludgy and fun! pretty astounding that it came out in '77.

i like frank's voice but don't find it all that emotionally affecting the accompanying band tho, is tops daddy-o

Started off strong but am finding it increasingly cheesy and overwrought. There's something about this production and instrumentation that ain't doing it for me. Coconut is painful. Why do I hate the way all these instruments sound? Appropriately named album.

this slaps Its so weird to rate these cus im only listening 1x before rendering judgment. Is this actually a 5 star? Who knows! But this is a lot of fun and I'll be relistening

this is gud - went down smoooth could easily be plopped into any tony hawk ost what's up with this band's politics btw? shilling crypto...obviously not a great name... but then you sign an anti-facist pledge to get in their fan club.

this rips how is the sound quality so good

this is maybe 2nd or 3rd listen and it obviously rocks. the way it morphs from rpunch riff to punchy riff expanding and falling. it's gud

voice fits so well. dont love all the tracks but some pleasant bangers throughout this guys voice reminds me of death cab man what's his voice

whimsy city. it's cute but also feels busy in a clumsy way at times prefer the 2nd half

Didn't listen for this project cus I already play it once every few months anyway. Great tunes excellent storytelling

this is my first time listening to a nirvana project in full. maybe its cus i'm so friggin sleepy but i am unimpressed. i hate this guitar tone, so thin and plinky. favorite song so far was a bowie cover. i dont get it

Love early Cohen. Never knew he had a synth era. At first the cheese was overwhelming but there are some solid tunes here. I'm Your Man and Take this Waltz rock. Jazz Police is deranged. It's not my favorite of his but I admire him taking a big artistic swing in changing his sound so drastically.

feels less like an album to listen to casually and more of something to you know experience and worship alongside. repetitive and trance like. probably not something i'll return to often but glad to have listened to it.

it's just a fun time

uh been a few days but remember liking it

not for me, thanks

Maybe 2nd or 3rd time listening. Leaves me a little cold but some undeniable bangers

i like the ones that evoke an underwater donkey kong country level less enjoying the moby spoken word bits

love the gar love the simo

admire it but not for me

If I could listen to this on its own merit its an easy 5 stars. Sometimes Im able to enjoy art from monsters. Maybe its because his sanitized biopic just released. But this go around I actually couldnt get past the 3rd song cus I kept thinking that I'm just listening to a pedophile

this was cute. and i dunno if i'm selling it short by labeling it as such. will return

perfectly cromulent but not particularly exciting

have i become smiths pilled?

there's some nice bass playing. maybe it's just cus i'm in a foul mood but i'm finding this pretty annoying. also realizing that lindsey in freaks and geeks starts the album on the b side. funny!

beautiful singing damn some of this is so dark and violent

i don't hate the vocals but i like the instrumentals so much that i wish the vocals weren't there 3 songs left and i'm pretty ready for this to be over maybe if i was on a roadtrip and not stuck in the office this would be higher

giving this a 2 listening to it in a drab office building and a 4 on the dance floor. god im depressed.

outside of 1 or 2 tracks this just kinda flew in and flew out it's fine

that was beautiful over too soon will absolutely be revisiting

i can think of at least 4 things wrong with that title. not digging this. a song called sex dwarf shouldn't be this bad. or maybe it's appropriately named idk. dnf

All the songs are pretty similar sonically. But its a song I like.

30 seconds in and i don't know about this chief it's trying? to do interesting things which i appreciate in theory. but i'm mostly annoyed dnf with 2 tracks left to go. no thanks

Psychosilly

oh yeah, that's the shit

i really love these heavy piano tracks

p good! dont understand the insane love

i like his voice. the band is ok

this is really not doing much for me. sorry mr lennon.

this is fuuuun

adored warm summer night and the rest is ok. i'd probably feel differently on the dance floor. tasty bass playing oh wait will you cry also great

no thanks came up with an open mind but not a fan. didn't like the bass playing, her singing, or the tunes.

gas gas gas

was initially dreading this as i haven't enjoyed much of the British rappers I've heard. Glad to hear the album leans more towards R&B. It's gud! well first half good

it's the same song over and over and not one i particularly care for

not my favorite pixies effort but still pleasant

does not make my heart whoop and sing

listened in the morning. in the afternoon thought oh i've gotta listen to the new album today. not very memorable. maybe used to be totally revolutionary in terms of metal? did not leave an impression on my mottled mind

this fun!

sad to listen to knowing where kanye ends up. this dude is so fucking talented. funny and insightful, incredible production, great features, it's a stellar album. one of hip hop's best reduced to blabbering nazi bullshit. shame.

haven't even relistened yet but obvious masterpiece. had heard a lot of these songs growing up not realizing they were all the same person on the same album. my mind was for lack of a better term, blown. such crystal clear songwriting. a beautiful cozy hug

never reaches the heights of the intro song but damn this album makes me smile

i think i liked it but need a relisten

this is such a weird project. i dunno how well i can say how much i connect to an album after 1 listen. all my reviews are useless. i could see myself growing fonder of this album, there's something about it that's compelling. but there's a larger part of me that doesn't dig the production and finds the whole thing too cheesy and cloying. will relisten
