1001 Albums Summary

It's a very full sound - the guitars are weirdly obtrusive - vocal feels back in the mix Very much in the pocket looping round a basic pattern Long-range harmonic structures Obviously super important lyrics Tosh's songs are actually more to my taste than Marley's. I like Stop That Train

Songs too long Some nice orchestrations Can't judge the lyrics because they're Icelandic Ny Batterí is a highlight

This is definitively not my thing. Simultaneously brainless and boring. I'm sure it's someone's thing. It's not mine.

This is a great listen. You feel like you're live with this crazy alien funk band. Super tight, sustains interest over long repeating sections. Production is also great. It's an amazing drum sound and the vocals are recorded from different distances giving depth

You can hear the Beatles influence, both in the sound and in the sense of humour. What I like in things like this as opposed to American Classic rock is the sense of fun and irony. Cigarettes and Alcohol is a good example.

See why it's popular. Strong energy, clear production, great writing

I like the sense of humour

Gorgeous music. Lyrics can occasionally be a little over-earnest, but if you're listening to Muse and not looking for over-earnest, you're in the wrong place

I like it. Nice undertones of bossa nova but also pushing to other things
