1001 Albums Summary

Overall rating : 4.0 / 5 Favorite track(s) : "Superstition" (4.5 / 5) ; "I Believe (When I Fall in Love It Will Be Forever)" (4.5 / 5) ; "Lookin' for Another Pure Love" (4.5 / 5) Least favorite track : "You and I" (2.5 / 5) ------- First time listening to Stevie Wonder, wasn't disappointed. Sadly sounds a little bit repetitive, but nonetheless it was still enjoyable for me. Will most likely listen to it again in the future.

Overall rating : 1 / 5 Favorite track : "Dub Housing" (3.5 / 5) Least favorite track : "Thriller!" (0.5 / 5) (can you even call this music????? it's just random noises????) ------- Okay, so. I do listen to a LOT of post-punk and experimental subgenres. But what the actual hell was that?? I don't want to be rude but really, this has to be one of the WORST things I've listened to. I feel like I've wasted half an hour of my life... Sloppy instruments, messy rhythms, and I really can't stand the vocalist's singing. I get that it's supposed to be "avant gardiste", but there's a line between this, and just mashing random noises in a hesitant way into your recorder and call it a day (or a good track). I have "appreciated" a song or two though. "Dub Housing", "Caligari's Mirror" and "I, Will Wait" were quite enjoyable actually. They felt a bit more like a finished product. I do not understand why the rating is so high on RYM. What the HELL? It's like, 3.68 / 5??? It was such a pain to finish. I had to skip the last song because I already knew I didn't like it. At the very least, each track is a bit different from the others, but they all are repetitive themselves. I can't decypher where most of them are trying to go. Maybe I'm not into "underground" subgenres enough, or am I simply not this enlightened "avant gardisme"-wise, but I can't consider this a release that I like. Will not listen to it again. The cover art looks cool tho.

Overall rating : 4 / 5 ----------- I had already listened to this one a while ago actually lol. Classic release that ACTUALLY deserves its place in this list (unlike the two previous ones I've got...)
