1001 Albums Summary

Hold me closer tiny dancerrrrr. A very passionate album yet Elton John’s cadence is phenomenal and calming. 10/10 classic. Some songs are long but I’ll allow it since they’re not repetitive or chorus-heavy

Listening to the intro with two headphones in and noise cancelling on felt like I was being kidnapped and subjected to government torture. Not sure what the goal is here but it sounds like a retarded 5 year old is smashing their fists on an electric keyboard. Could maybe pass for a soundtrack for an ocean’s eleven remake if it was the special Olympics version. Of course people from the UK would enjoy this. End of the album started to be listenable so that saves it from being a 1/5

Gives me some type of southern nostalgia that I shouldn’t be getting being born in 2003. Makes me feel like I just got done losing the civil war. If he had a bluegrass band playing with him this has 5 star potential.

Much more funk/pop than I was expecting from a Prince album, but makes sense considering it was made in the early albums. Definitely some good tracks but not super imaginative and would’ve liked to hear more guitar. If I wanted to listen to 8 minute long songs I’d just queue up free bird 10 times in a row

Very simple yet wonderful. I have a soft spot for this era of music and movies because I wish I grew up in this time (for everything except the racism). Has an objective and theme and doesn’t deviate from it throughout the entire album. No random keyboard nonsense and 8 minute drag-on songs. Efficient art that does its job, just what I enjoy.

Classic West Coast Hip-hop. Every song was unique and the interludes were perfection. Cant believe I’ve never heard of Jurassic 5.

Absolute slop. Anyone who enjoys this please go fuck yourself. This is what ai would create if I told it to make synth music

Pretty basic. Good genre. Certainly nothing to write home about

Definitely TV ad music. “Time to pretend” playing over top of a $2500 iPhone that no one can afford just makes sense. The story behind these two guys is cool tho and the music is interesting and catchy so I’ll allow it.

Great album. This is metal before it became weird and scary. I can see the influences on nirvana for sure

Not terrible considering the circumstances. At least it was real music. Good drums and had some feeling to it

Super funky and got a whole lotta soul. Definitely some drag-on songs though

Just didn’t really do it for me. Pretty boring and felt like an album I could sleep through

Certainly like the west coast hip hop more. Just didn’t have a lot of artistic value to me

What an album. Listened to it before but it always hits. Great vocals from Billy the goat.

Genuinely what the fuck is this. I think this could just be sea shanties or the soundtrack for a new SpongeBob movie

Great album. Sounds different from the other pop of the era, and you can hear the other elements.

Throw the entirety of Great Britain away. Please. I would tell this guy to go back to Sex Pistols but I don’t think anyone wants that either

Certainly a powerful album historically speaking. Considering it was around the time of Rodney King the anger and passion in this album is justified. Still not sure why ice cube decided to pursue a solo career but you win some you lose some

Great album. I honestly can’t believe this was made in the 60s.

Anyone who considers this revolutionary is a millennial egomaniac who just looks to go against the grain. It’s not bad music, but the people jerking themselves over this album is the equivalent of those artists who just splatter paint on the wall and then after the fact try to look for deep meaning. In reality I think it’s these people overcompensating for not being able to have an original thought and also trying to lie to themselves that they didn’t just waste an hour listening to this. Anyone with a brain isn’t searching for a reason to give this a 5/5 and is just sticking it with a 3/5 and moving onto tomorrow hoping it’s normal music

Saw 22k monthly listeners and assumed the worst but it actually wasn’t that bad. They’re from San Diego so that must mean they’re super chill. Decent album

Great album. Found out they were from Philly so that put it over the edge

My ears feel like they’ve been in a Cornell University frat house. Too soon?

A lot more sad and emotional than I was expecting. Certainly the right vibe for waking up at 3am for the third day in a row to go to a fucking grocery store. Songs were quick and packed with story. Great album
