1001 Albums Summary

something about prison inmates enjoying a live country music concert is kinda wholesome

ok mr. brightside duh but the rest are lwokey bangers. "glamorous indie rock and roll" surprisingly an earworm

groovy and I love r&b as much as the next person but did start getting kind of repetitive as the album went on. easy listening ig

rip dolly

TIL noise rock exists. first two songs or so were meh, rest of was actually sort of cool, but everything is rather forgettable after the fact. I can do without most of the vocals. i probably wouldn't relisten unless i Want background noise playing that is more interesting than White Noise so there's theoretically a use case at least

the lyrics are peak but the arrangements >> how her voice tends to sound to me.. got used to it as the album went on tho... some of the later songs hit hard, overall this was a really great listen, would listen again, but only when i wanna get deep in my feels or something (jingle bells jumpscare for the saddest song bruh :sob: why'd she twist the knife like that)

wooooo big band

cool

we're the robots mentioned o.o basically we got daft punk at home. I would like this more if it some of the songs weren't so long and repetitive. there were cool sounds but not cool enough to really justify the lengths

the lesser popular ones on this album were decent sounding but i personally i can sort of tell why they are not as popular lol

Legit dont remember anything oops

somehow very unmemorable (except for that one part of that one song with weird vocal effects). could not care less. wouldn't really listen again

peak entertainment and kinda sad which then became full on sad. all in an enjoyable way

girl was going through it but i do like a lot of the lyrics

Her voice is nice. many songs feel like a warm hug. some got my head bopping in some places

it's just all pretty good? i am biased toward liking this genre overall. not much specifically stood out. a reluctant 4 stars because i did technically like everything i heard and it would be a fine addition to my collection (might relisten to whole album sometime)

"its tricky" being iconic is kind of what is pulling the weight here the other songs were fine sounding but idk most raps weren't quite so memorable aside some of these people's names

great beats, smooth bars, although for some reason i started to get a bit tired after "can i kick it" (which i did like), but prob just a skill issue on my part. "ham n eggs" was hilarious so i got back into a good mood starting from there

ah yes sounds like tripping on and coming down from ecstasy and LSD not that I know what that feels like. didn't hate it or anything but as the album progressed it just kind of just made me feel kinda depressed (coming down must be awful), started becoming less standalone nice to listen to and more like the type of stuff that requires you to be high while listening. "movin' on up" is really great tho

Every song was ok (i dont remember) or pretty good, except the third just caught me off guard and not in a good way... what was that

absolute jazz

meh i thought this was gonna be semi iconic, but i guess not my cup of tea

saxes go brr

i have learned that i actually tend to enjoy blues

a bit too much misogyny for my taste! however if i pretend i am not hearing english but i am just hearing cool ~vocal flow~ then ok

holy nostalgia (for that one song) but the general vibe of the album gets my approval

I mean it's alright

(*reads wikipedia article description* thanks i hate it) The non-singing vocals annoy me, but i like the instrumentals.. and apparently the album influenced Arctic Monkeys which checks out sonically so I will slightly tolerate it

nice vibe

big shrug

man idk

that early 2000s sound i enjoy

it started out alright but somewhere around the middle when amazing grace started playing, became not a huge fan of the front and center acoustic guitar sound i guess

another concept album? this time sonically just ain't really my thing

gotta be honest i dont remember a single thing but it was fine

"composed almost entirely of samples" checks out and it sounds pretty cool. makes for pretty good focus music

Good Will Hunting !?

wow so experimental, such avant-garde... actually kind of underrated. the first track isn't that awful, maybe a bit annoying in the vocals, which some later tracks make up for imo. i may not listen again but did not hate listening to this

Oh so this is what Tribe Named Quest sampled from

pretty good except for the second to last song lol

given all the anti war themes, love-not-war messaging, should i not have been surprised when they had a 30 second interlude about orgasms. and another. related track. lmao anyway I really like Born To Run :0 and the 13-minute-long second track did not disappoint

grunge is alright but I did not appreciate having to listen to snoring noises at the start of that one song

sound of silence referenced

an interesting listen for me since i rarely ever go for this precise genre and style. album is a journey, i really like that poem serving as a throughline for the whole thing, definitely makes me appreciate rap as literary art. great themes too. had to go on genius.com to fully understand all the lyrics since they move fast, but i learned a lot! purely sonically, it also sounds really good.👏👏👏

first song had a vibe reminding me of the fictional band in scott pilgrim lol but eventually the rest of the album lost me. the later songs get a bit boring... or too beep-boop sounding
