It's Bowie, it rarely misses.

Generic rock album number... I lost count.

there is sometihng here,kinda

Fantastic album. Some incredible tracks: I Ain't the One, Tuesday's Gone, Simple Man and of course Freebird. Showcases the best of Country / Rock.

HELLL YEEEAAAH BOYYYYY GIVE IT VANILLA THUNDER WHITE SUGAR PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC WHITE BOY

Never heard of this band or album, but this is really good. The Sabres of Paradise use some interesting sounds to construct ambient dub songs, and it makes this one of the more unique things from British 90s electronica. I can see it being a difficult listen, both dub and ambient are naturally slow genres, and I think your perception of this is going to be dependent on your mood at the time, but it caught me at a good time and I loved it.

Too bad he is a nazi because this album is great.

Very fun. Gets somewhat psychedelic without losing poppy hooks. A few songs got a bit too annoying toward the end (I didn’t like Presidential Suite) but overall would listen again.

Yet another album on this list that is perfectly fine, but I just don't understand what warrants this being included. It's a mid-90s coffee shop album. Not controversial, not particularly interesting, etc.

Everyone know Aerosmith, right? Not that everyone likes them, but they are universal in The States. I don't think I have ever heard one of these songs, ever. They were all solid mid 70s bluesy rock and roll. The music was well played and executed, the vocals are well, classic Steven Tyler. This was a really solid album that I can see being an influence to lots of bands to come. Somewhere a young Axle Rose was playing this record over and over again. Not an amazing ground breaking album or some sort of masterpiece, but still deserving of being on this list. 7.0/10 144/1001

I can’t believe the top review for this record (as of Dec 2023) is from someone trying to use their PhD in Mathematics as justification for not liking hip-hop. Weak.

Oh fuck yeah, now we're talking. Wait no, I swear I'm not being pretentious. This is the lowest rated album on this site because I guess mostly people aren't very fond of German people smashing metal plates together - who would have guessed. But halle-fucking-lujah, this is something this list needs more of. Albums that make you go "well, that was an experience and now I'm a changed man". Nobody is lying on their deathbed wishing they heard more crappy 80s post-punk or late 60s psychedelic rock. THIS is what we all deserve to be listening to as we embrace eternal oblivion. I'm giving this a high rating not only because I genuinely really love it, but also to help Kid Rock move to his rightful place as the actual worst album on this list. Together we can make a difference. Save the turtles.

Brings back vivid memories of when me and my mate Ray went on a trip to Dresden. We met this rotund goth in a bar, head to toe with tattoos and piercings, real filth and after a while took her into the disabled bogs for a spit roast. We were both pumping away in her with Napalm Death on in the background and her wailing "MEIN GOTT" at the top of her lungs. I remember spaffing all over her back just as Siege of Power kicked in. As i shoot over her, she takes Ray's cock out of her gob and says "do you want fries with that?" in a faux American accent. Anyway, we go outside and there's this gammy little geezer in a wheelchair sitting there furious, giving me daggers, because he's had to wait so long, so I lean into him and I go "I hope you have as much fun in there as we just did you little cunt".

Shit like this on the list is both refreshing and infuriating. Refreshing because it is good, fun, interesting, and also not something I would regularly be exposed to! It's why I started this project and keeps me coming back. It's infuriating because the fact that it is included here means that Robert Dimery, the original author of the 1001 albums list is aware that music like this exists. He's clearly aware that there is an entire world of music out there. SO WHY HAVE I LISTENED TO 200 80s BRITISH NEW WAVE ALBUMS AND 200 SCOTTISH ROCK ALBUMS FROM THE 90S??!!?

Sorry Boomers/Gen X, I was like 20 when this came out so it's one of the best things to ever happen to me. Sorry it's not King Crimson or whatever.

The only enjoyment I got from this was reading the review about the brothers in Dresden and their lovely and talented tattooed friend.

Music for incels to wank furiously by

5: The moustache that appear on Art if you put your thumb on Pauls face on the album cover. 5: The songs.

Most 60's groups had three choices: copy the beatles, copy the beach boys, or sexually abuse minors. These guys changed the game and did all three- Four stars!

The only reason this is here is because it’s from before streaming, when if you bought a shit album you had to convince yourself you liked it.

i ain’t listening to all that i’m happy for u tho or sorry that happened

This is the 4th Springsteen album I have gotten out of 70, 2nd this week. After listening to the album I ate at a McDonalds, read a Ronald Reagan biography and punch a commie in the dick. MERICA!

Back when I was in college, there was this dude who would come into the bar I worked at on a Friday night and play fucking 10 Neil Young songs in a row. He would also hit on girls by doing magic tricks. I remember how angry I got every time he made me listen to an hour of Neil Young because I was just trying to have a good time, and he fucking made me listen to this sad, soppy fuck who writes nothing but songs that sound indistinguishable from each other and never seemed to enjoy a happy moment in his entire like. Fuck that guy, and fuck Neil Young. 2/5

Back when I was in college I used to go to a bar and listen to Neil tunes and do magic tricks for women. There was a bartender there, he was the best. I loved that guy. Some of the best years of my life.

Rage In Favor Of The Machine.
