1001 Albums Summary

Not too bad, easy listen. 3/5

As usual, great bass lines from Bernie. I gotta say as much as I was vibing to it, I did find myself tuning out here and there. Repetitive maybe? Or it just kinda sounded too similar?

Of course it’s a banger. Can’t really argue with this one, heavy and clean riffage, powerful drums. Very funky. Wasn’t a fan of the vocals initially when I first listened but they’ve grown on me.

Not too bad with the punk rock vibe, few good songs here and there, but as the album says, it is rather Dookie. 2/5

I remember first hearing “A Day at the Races” on Tony Hawks Underground back in 2003, and decided to buy this record a bit later on, and after a full relisten I’m surprised with how well it still holds up. Musically, the production is fantastic. Record is full of dusty funk loops, jazz breaks, flutes, upright basslines, and crisp boom-bap drums without sounding dated. Solid 4/5

After an intense 24 hour listen, I gotta say this album has quite a bit of variety. I like that it switches between French and English (not a new concept but for this it’s quite refreshing). 3/5

One of those guilty pleasure records of mine. It feels smoky without trying to be I guess vintage?? One minute she’s throwing out sarcastic one-liners, the next she lands a lyric so honest it almost feels accidental lol. 4/5

Hadn’t really taken the time to fully listen to this record, but after a proper listen I felt like a joint and bourbon. the record swings between cracked humor, self-loathing & tenderness. Shoutout to Susan. 2.5/5 (I know you can’t do that but that’s my rating)

Yeh, meh ye it’s aight. Had some good jams here and there but overall it was quite boring. You might find yourself appreciating what she’s doing without feeling particularly moved by it. 2/5
