1001 Albums Summary

Very easy listening album, solid background noise. 3/5

Relaxing, peaceful vibe to sonk into although some songs felt a bit boring. Not really my genre 2/5

Just a bit ehh, not as exciting as White Stripes

Great punk, high energy music

Pretty amazing songwriting for being so stripped back voice and guitar

Really enjoyed the organ playing and vibe. Unreal

Pleasant

Sounded a bit the same overall. Great energy fast paced rock n roll. Impressive 3 piece great sound. Probably still a 2 though from me.

Decent story telling but god I hate country music.

Boring

Bit corny but amazing musicianship. I love the influences that came from this album.

Wanted to love it but I just didnt think it was anything special. Maybe thats the influence of the album However, I loved the production but the songs were mediocre.

A modern classic. Great rough cuts mixed with hits.

Really peaceful album, good story telling but the charm wore off on the 2nd listen for me

Fun energy, strong start, really catchy rhythms hard not to put you in a good mood. Some songs towards the end make you feel like your in a football stadium but dont feel like songs so much. I dunno, fun vibe, feeling a 4.

Really enjoyed

This is album is probably the most effective form of punishment I have ever witnessed. Woeful album, I counted down every minute until it was over.

Really enjoyed, not as much as the debut though.

I really enjoyed the variety of lyrical topicals and all songs felt really fun.

Alright but better examples of this british style out there, largely forgetable

Was a box set really necessary? Music was enjoyable, but a bit bloated. Actually 2/5 changed my mind.

Knee deep in muck

Who says a funk ban can't play rock music.

Hard to avoid bias when ive had 4 trip hop albums recently. This was the best one, but I still think its a boring genre.

Picture yourself at the train station, you ask a stranger "Excuse me, do you have the time?" He gazes at you as he pretentiously replies "Do any of us really know, what time it is? "Haha, yea cool thats so deep...anyway if I could just get the time so I can get out of here?" "Oh sure, just let me ...*8 minutes of pretentious shredding*" Was really excited when I heard horns but unfortunately just felt like a mash of instrumententation. Most self indulgent record ive ever heard. Instrumental music that doesn't fit the song mixed with weak lyrical ideas that shouldnt have made it out of a highschool textbook. As a lover of prog music, Im sure this made a great influence to the bands I love, but thank god this isnt where the genre stayed.

Peaceful at first but fell off a bit
