1001 Albums Summary

Bowie is a blind spot for me. This was a great listen. I’ve been missing out.

This is not for me. Some ok tracks on here but borders on novelty music

This band has not aged well for me. But they still have some great songs on this record. Terrible ones like I Like Dirt bring it down.

Maybe not one I will go back to a lot, but enjoyed it. Truly have never heard a stone roses album

This is a great record. Forgot how great it was actually.

I prefer Funeral but any Arcade Fire album is tainted by what has happened with Winn Butler. 5 years ago I probably would have given this a 4, but I hear the music differently now.

REM is one of my all time favorite bands so this is a little biased. And despite being an unapologetic 90s REM fan, this debut album is the best indie rock debut in history

I hated it then and I hate it now. Garbage.

Just not super into the 80s new wave sound

Absolute classic. Not a bad track on this record.

Not typically my kind of music, but I really enjoyed this

Really enjoyed this more than I expected. Truly had never heard of this band and loved 90% of this record

Not into the whole doo wop thing

This is such a great record. Deducting a point because Win Butler is a chump.

I’m sorry but this is elevator music

This electronica 80s stuff is just not for me. There were a couple moments where I got into this one, but most of the time no.

Not a Metallica guy

Monkees are under appreciated. This is Pet Sounds level stuff

Pretty boring but there are some ok tracks in the back half

Man I can listen to Keith Moon drum for days

This isn’t my favorite Neil Young album but it’s still very good.

I think I would have loved this if I knew about it but when it came out

Not a fan of later cohen but this one is classic

Probably my favorite IRS record

This is objectively a brilliant album musically but I find it challenging to listen to

It’s a great record but I struggle to listen to this music anymore

Musically fine, but the vocals are too screamy for me

This an excellent record by a band that later became super cheesy

Obviously a masterpiece

I liked this a lot more than I expected to. Lots of layers musically.

Good guitars but don’t like metal

I need to add this to the rotation. This is my rap sweet spot

Paradise by the Dashboard light is awful

This was homework

I hope I never have to listen to this industrial dépêche mode garbage again.

Some listenable tracks but disliked most of it

Too weird for me

A little proggy for me but enjoyed some of the musicality

I like Tainted Love but there is also a song on this album called Sex Dwarf and it’s bad

This is the first album to appear that is in my personal top 10

It’s fine. Not something Ill vote go back to but ok listen

The first and last tracks are just obnoxious

This is actually a good album but he loses 2 points for being Morrisey

Little too soft rock for me

Just self indulgent prog

I have never loved the talking heads but this album was a pleasant Friday morning listen

Not sure how I have never heard of these guys. This is my kind of 90s music.

I’m more of an In Rainbows guy

Great Sunday morning music

I know people love it but this has never been for me

I wish I didn’t hate Morrissey because this is a good album.
