I have one, and I’m only 88 albums in!
4* Raekwon, OB4CL,
2* Guns n Roses, Appetite for Destruction,
1* Jane’s Addiction, Nothing Shocking,
3* The Byrds, Younger than Yesterday,
5* Nick Drake, Five Leaves Left | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
260 in, and I’ve had 3:
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication (4); Björk - Medulla (1); Pixies - Doolittle (5); Todd Rundgren - A Wizard, A True Star (2); Eagles - Eagles (3)
The Verve - Urban Hymns (3); Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True (5); The Byrds - Sweetheart of the Rodeo (1); Depeche Mode - Music for the Masses (4); Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms (2)
The Residents - Duck Stab/Buster & Glen (1); David Holmes - Let’s Get Killed (2); King Crimson - Larks’ Tongues in Aspic (3); The xx - xx (5); Traffic - Traffic (4)
I’m sure some of these are controversial. I don’t see the appeal of Dire Straits, I know people here love that album. And some of these are nostalgia-fueled (Californication and Urban Hymns in particular). | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Yep
1* White Denim - D
2* Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
3* Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden
4* Rahul Dev Burman - Shalimar
5* Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever To Tell | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Haha, yes | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Yeah this is four 5*, it hurts | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
What a cool thought, I've never checked that before. I wrote a little addition to my dashboard:
[https://1001albumsdashboard.fun](https://1001albumsdashboard.fun)
It'll check all your albums ratings and if you've have 5 albums in a row that each have one of the 5 different ratings, it'll show you it under "Streaks->Straight Flushes" depending on your screen size, you might have to scroll over to see this option
I've had 25 total Straight Flushes:
[https://1001albumsdashboard.fun/index/6189c67ca6cd2c4118b9f7fb](https://1001albumsdashboard.fun/index/6189c67ca6cd2c4118b9f7fb)
My most recent was:
Eric Clapton - 461 Ocean Boulevard 4
Country Joe & The Fish - Electric Music For the Mind and Body - 3
The Doors - Morrison Hotel - 5
Suede - Dog Man Star - 2
Ute Lemper - Punhishg Kiss 1 | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Could you send me your project sharable ID? I posted here that I wrote an addition to my dashboard that will check for these, and I'd love to check your project and make sure that it doesn't break anything! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Wow, thanks to this I realize I missed one:
*(1) Girls Against Boys- Venus Luxure No. 1 Baby
*(2) The Fall- Live at the Witch Trials
*(3) Neil Young- Tonight’s the Night
*(4) Animal Collective- Merriweather Post Pavillion
*(5) Rush-Moving Pictures | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Interesting question!! I don't think I've seen this question before! I'm 760+ albums in and I found three Straight Flushes:
**1**: Fugazi - Repeater, **2**: David Bowie - Young Americans, **3**: Joan Baez - s/t, **4**: Ray Charles - The Genius Of Ray Charles, **5**: Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid (still one of my faves overall and this flush happened 2+ years ago)
**1**: Ministry - KE\*A\*H\** (Psalm 69), **2**: Underworld - Second Toughest In The Infants, **3**: Bob Dylan- Blood On The Tracks, **4**: Chemical Brothers - Exit Planet Dust, **5**: Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest
**1**: Big Star - Third/Sister Lovers, **2**: Fiona Apple - Tidal, **3**: TV on the Radio - Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes, **4**: Jefferson Airplane - Surrealistic Pillow, **5**: The Go-Betweens - 16 Lovers Lane | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
It’s neat! Kinda shows your music taste/biases in condensed form | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Great, glad it worked for you, too! It was a quick add, I didn't test super thoroughly! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Happened very recently, hadn’t noticed that! My flush goes like this:
• Slayer - Reign in blood (1 star)
• Björk - Vespertine (5 star)
• Aretha Franklin - Lady Soul (4 star)
• Rahul Dev Burman - Shalimar (3 star)
• The sonics - Here are the Sonics (2 star) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
We would have plenty of full houses, my ratings are 2 3 3 2 3 etc. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
I don't have many 1s and 5s. Surprised me I have 2 straight flushes. Not so surprised they overlap by 4 with a 3\* on either end. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Elliott Smith - Figure 8, Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers, Slayer - Reign in Blood, Ride - Nowhere, Simple Minds - New Gold Dream
I’ll let you guess which is which. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
The Seldom Seen Kid is superb! If you don’t know Elbow outside of that, I recommend The Take Off And Landing Of Everything. Don’t know if it’s on the list but I suspect not, it seems to be less acclaimed but is a quietly fantastic LP. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Thanks, I will check that out for sure! I’m fairly certain TSSK is the only one of theirs on the list. I had never heard of them before but that album blew me away on the first listen. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Nice! I gave YYYs, White Denim & Fleet Foxes all 5 stars :0 | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
And that is what this thing is all about!
I can’t remember much about White Denim tbh, it was about a year ago, except that I had never heard of them before and I really didn’t like it obvs. My review is somewhat scathing lol | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
I’m fascinated by your 1 rating for 1984. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-13-08 |
Simple Minds lowest, Stones highest? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
Correct on Stones | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
I’ve had one so far (from 231):
- Wild Beasts - Two Dancers (1*)
- King Crimson - In The Court…(3*)
- Blur - Modern Life is Rubbish (5*)
- TV On The Radio - Dear Science (4*)
- The Triffids - Calenture (2*)
I remember being on the 3/4 and 4/5 fence with all three of those middle ones. I also remember Wild Beasts being a very easy 1. And I’ve only given thirteen 1s so far. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
Great dashboard! Interestingly four of my 5 were overlapping:
>**3:** Stan Getz - Getz/Gilberto, **4:** Beatles - A Hard Day's Night
>**5:** Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Ghosteen, **1:** Public Image Ltd. - Metal Box, **2:** Primal Scream - Vanishing Point
>**4:** Paul McCartney and Wings - Band on the Run, **3:** Various Artists - A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector
**---**
>**5:** The Prodigy - The Fat Of The Land
>**3:** Wild Beasts - Two Dancers, 1: Genesis - The Lanb Lies Down On Broadway, 2: The Smiths - Meat Is Murder, 4: Bob Marley & The Wailers - Exodus
>**5:** Stan Getz - Jazz Samba
**---**
>**1.** Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - Trout Mask Replica, **5:** The Cure - Disintegration, **3:** The Who - My Generation, **4:** Run-D.M.C. - Raising Hell, **2:** k.d. lang - Ingenue | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
In 200 ratings, I'm surprised I found a run:
1 - Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde - The Pharcyde
2 - Pink Flag - Wire
3 - Murmur - R.E.M.
4 - Songs In The Key Of Life - Stevie Wonder
5 - Can't Buy A Thrill - Steely Dan | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
Almost did this week, needed a 1 - got two 5s in a row but today looks like a 1 so far!! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
The closest I came has been:
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (5 stars)
Thin Lizzy - Live And Dangerous (3 stars)
The White Stripes - Get Behind Me Satan (4 Stars)
Slade - Slayed? (1 Star)
after that I got 'Offspring - Smash' (4 Stars) and 'Funkadelic - Maggot Brain' (5 Stars), so it ruined the potential for a straight flush.
But right after THOSE I gave 'Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory' 2 stars - so had things been rearranged a little bit, I would have one on my belt :P | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
Not only did I get a straight flush, but I got it from highest to lowest. I got:
1. Nick Drake - Bryter Layter 5/5
2. Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone 4/5
3. Frank Zappa - Hot Rats 3/5
4. Run-D.M.C. - Raising Hell 2/5
5. Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom 1/5 | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
I'm working on one right now: Here Come the Warm Jets- Brian Eno (3), Talking Book- Stevie Wonder (5), Space Ritual- Hawkwind (1), McCartney- Paul McCartney (2), and today's Clandestineo- Manu Chao (4) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
this is awesome! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I had manually downloaded the CSV and tinkered with the data to come up with a much worse version than what you did, so kudos. You saved me a ton of time trying to recreate! One suggestion that I found interesting when I was digging into the data: For your "Controversial Opinion" tab, add a feature that lists albums you have ranked more or less than 1 point above the average. That expands one's list of controversial albums from the just top and bottom outliers. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Done, though 1 might be too small of a difference. There's a lot of albums on there, but take a look and let me know what you think! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
If you want, you can send me the csv file from the history and I will send you your personalized dashboard similar to this https://www.reddit.com/r/1001AlbumsGenerator/s/ghkR8cByFE | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Thanks, looks great! My thought process was that everything within a point is within the level of granularity that the rating system allows and could more or less be considered in line with consensus. Anything outside of a point is an album where you had the opportunity to be closer to the average and didn’t take it.
I suppose you could add a 1.5 or 2 point difference drop down in addition to the 1 point if you wanted to address the size of the lists.
Appreciate your work on this! I’m going to share it with my group | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Oh wow that looks awesome! I need to catch up on some ratings but then I’ll reach out.
Does is automatically update or is it a manual process of sending the csv when you want to update? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Manual unfortunately | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
I wanted to post when I reached 100 but I was in a bit of a slump and only now fully caught up.
[https://1001albumsgenerator.com/shares/662abfe584192c4b69458cdb](https://1001albumsgenerator.com/shares/662abfe584192c4b69458cdb)
It is still fun. Some albums are a real chore to get through. Some make me very happy. Some surprise me.
I think I am generous with my 5's and my 2's but my 1's are very much meant. I don't like high tones (I already knew that - but trumpet/sax whatever solos that go up to very high notes are just torture for me). | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
I actually really like your 1s. Even that Justin Timberlake album, that I went in fully expecting to hate, was all right. Interesting to see someone digging jazz and country, probably the two most despised genres on here. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
To be fair my two high rated country albums are both by Emmylou Harris so more the Americana / singer-songwriter / story telling section of the genre - the other two I rated a 2!
Jazz surprised me a bit with how much I loved a lot of it! (but there where also some torturous tuds) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
Blur and Dummy in the 5s 🔥🫡
Also gave Sade and Justin Timberlake 1s.
I like that Arcade Fire album though. Biggest disagreement I have with your summary. Enjoy the next 100! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
I like and even love other albums by Arcade Fire, just not this one. I felt the same when it was new! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
futuresex/lovesounds is infinitely better than justified. should have made the list | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
I said the same thing, but as someone correctly pointed out, that album came out a year after the book was originally published and there were probably bigger priorities for the author with updates. Ultimately a flaw with the system. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
yeah i think if the book originally came out a year later they would have just had futuresex/lovesounds instead | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-14-08 |
You crazy! But apart from that our taste is very similar. I'm a massive Charlatans fan, but to put Definitely Maybe below Tellin Stories is criminal. Both a 5. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-18-08 |
In tried and true fashion with other people I have seen on this subreddit, allow me to share my journey 100 albums in.
https://1001albumsgenerator.com/shares/660572f548833c1bea140d70
A couple of observations I have:
- Before I started, of the 1089 albums on this list I had already listened to 125 of them. That’s at least 11%, which was part of my motivation to sign up.
- Of those albums I listened to prior, 16 showed up in the first 100 of my journey.
- I will say the albums I’ve given 5 stars to thus far are from artists that I was already familiar with in some capacity before this journey.
- 80% of the albums I’ve gotten thus far have been rated at least 4 stars. Though I would much prefer my words speak more to how I feel about an album than just a numerical rating.
- My favorite artist discoveries in this batch are The Prodigy, Tricky, Portishead, Ash, fIREHOSE and Common.
- I got all of Beck’s albums and both Adele albums within my first 100. Probability, folks.
- The first three David Bowie albums in my journey have been in chronological order (Young Americans -> Station to Station -> Low).
- Props to u/SidledsGunnar for creating the album generator in the first place. This is one of the coolest projects I’ve stumbled upon.
| r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I love that you enjoy Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs. I haven't had that one come up for me yet, but I was listening to it last night with my wife and kids before dinner. Such a great album. And that's wild that you already got all three Beck albums. I'm a week shy of being halfway done, and I haven't gotten a single Beck, Madonna, or Nirvana album (all of them three albums on the list, and I'm so miffed that I haven't gotten an album from any of them yet). | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
From a Trip Hop Head, welcome to the club! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Every time I click on these hoping to see someone I’m aligned with, and every time they’ve given Pink Floyd a 5 | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
> The first three David Bowie albums in my journey have been in chronological order (Young Americans -> Station to Station -> Low)
The best way to listen to this run is in that order! You can really see the evolution of his sound during that period. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Sicne you like tricky and Portishead, then checkout Massive Attack's Mezzanine. This album isn't on the list which is a complete blunder, but their 1st two albums are, I'd happily remove one of these majestic albums to include this supernova of an album. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Adding a "date album was generated" field would be nice. I often use this as a journal and it's nice to reference when you might have gotten an album. It appears the metadata exists since the generated date appears on your review on the "global reviews" page, but nowhere on your personal or group page. | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Been wanting that for so long ngl | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
This would be great tbh | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Was thinking about this recently. Would be great to have this info | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Yes! Completely agree! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Actually you can find this info via the API https://1001albumsgenerator.com/api/v1/projects/yourprojectname | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I'm a little confused. Do you mean you want the date on the history page? Because the dates are on your shareable summary page. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
When you go to your summary page and at the bottom click “expand all ratings” it will show all your ratings with the date the album was generated. If you sit on an album and rate it at a later date, it still just shows the date it was generated. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Thanks, I see that now. That’s not a bad workaround but I think it would make more sense in the “history” table as that page seems a little more functional (and redundant with this profile page?). It’s almost like the dates are only shown for the “public facing” pages but your personal or group pages they are hidden for some reason. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Yeah exactly. Just a column right by the #. I’m usually working out of the history page so it would be convenient to not have to open a separate table that’s pretty redundant | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
>and redundant with this profile page?
The shareable summary is so other people can see your profile without your username visible, FYI! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
I've added the date to the desktop view now.
Unfortunately the mobile view needs a bit of work before i can add more stuff to it, but i'll have a look at that as well. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-18-08 |
Good stuff, thanks! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-18-08 |
I'm currently at around album 60 and I'm yet to figure out a perfect system that works for me. One of the main issues is relistens.
How many listens do you give each album? And also, how many times would you *like* to listen to each album in an ideal world? | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Generally I only give each album 1 listen, I only have 1 day with it, and I have other music I want to listen to, and just other things to do. Sometimes I listen to an album twice if 1 listen wasn't enough for me to make up my mind, but often just do 1. In an ideal world, I would listen to each album at least 10 or even 20 times before rating it, to make sure that I have really given it a chance and overcome any bias that may have warped my initial opinion | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Just once, and I rate it based on my initial feeling. I might realize later that I should’ve rated lower or higher, but oh well.
There’s not enough time to listen multiple times unfortunately unless it’s an album that I found that I really like. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I’m just coming up to 980.
If I like it I listen more than once, sometimes it gets added to my regular picks.
Otherwise, it’s once all the way through. Unless it’s an expanded remixed reissue - then I give up when it’s another version of the same track. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I try to make 3 as the minimum, but if something is super super long, 2 is sufficient.
But to be honest, so far on the list, and I'm on day 430, I kinda know what is gonna get after 1 listen, and I can tell a 5* by half way through | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Most just once. But if I like it enough to do multiple listens that day, I realize it’s a special one. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Before rating, almost always once but sometimes I'll give it a second listen the next day of I feel like there's something I'm missing. I actually did that with yesterday's album (EVOL).
In general I like to give albums a minimum of 3 listens over 3 separate days before I form a concrete opinion on it. I'm currently going through my list from the start and giving each one more listens, and I do find my opinion on some of them change as a result. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I always get at least halfway thru. if I hate it at the halfway point I don't change my opinion, I'll just suffer longer.
Most everything gets at least one listen, maybe two or three; I'm listening while I work so I've got 8 hours to hear it. Sometimes it turns into an all day thing with repeats and listening more in that genre, that's how I know it's a 5 star.
This project might do some interesting things to my year end round up! I might have added a new band to my most streamed, and I know I've added a lot of genres. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I usually listen to something twice. Once with my headphones and once with speakers. However, if something is especially bad or especially good I might only listen once. The second listen is usually only for something I am unsure of. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I usually listen 3 times but if it's really bad I'll abandon it after the second play. I'm cherry picking out all the songs I like and find that multiple plays can be very rewarding as some are growers. Also, I don't mind pausing the project when time is an issue. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I usually listen at least twice unless it’s an album I’m already super familiar with. There are instances where I’ll listen 3-4 times if I’m wavering on my rating, or if I was distracted while listening, my mood isn’t right, etc. Though this does cause me to have a bit of a backlog at times, it doesn’t bother me. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Just once is enough for me, although there has been a very small handful where I couldn't decide after one listen, and so I listened again. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I'm slightly biased and I will give 2 listens if it has been recommended to me before or its a local album (Manchester). However, most get 1 listen but like others have said you can tell which albums aren't gonna be your taste after 1, and which albums could be a grower. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I usually listen once though if I really like it or am not quite sure about rating I will listen again. I currently have a backlog of 15 or so albums so I'm kinda struggling to manage one album a day so multiple listens are less likely right now. What usually happens is I have a day off and I'll listen to a bunch back to back while I do housework or more likely play some playstation game that doesn't require too much thought. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I usually dismiss the extra tracks on deluxe etc unless I really like what I hear in the main album. I check Wikipedia to find out OG release tracklist and disregard anything else that has been tacked on. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
This is the same for me. I’m over 300 albums in and I’ve come to realize that I’m not assessing my overall take on the album, it’s a premature evaluation and I’m ok with that.
What I’ve also learned is, if it’s a new album to me and I’m compelled to listen to it again (out of enjoyment) it usually give it a 5 | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Exactly, I'm just over 200 in and I have learned to not take my rating too seriously. At the end of the day, the whole reason that I'm doing this list is to discover new music. If I initially give an album a low rating, but it ends up growing on me then that's fine. It doesn't matter to me that an album I love got a low rating from me, what's important is just that I found an album I love | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
just once, but I've also listened to every album on here twice before already when i was going in book order | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
If I can or if I really like an album, I'll listen two or three times.
I build a playlist, so I evaluate what song I want to add which is also part of the fun. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Minimum 2x. Lots of albums grow on me. I try at least once to do a focused listen. Don’t care if I get “behind.” It’s not a race! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
If it's a new-found 5 then I usually can't help but listen to it over, but I rarely, if ever, have done it on the same day. Maybe a song or two that day, but maybe a different day later in the week I will give it another run. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Just once for me. My ratings are based on the one listen and how it hit me in that moment! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
Most just once. Depends how much I like it, how busy I am with other stuff, whether I've heard it before. I always pick a favorite track. Usually I know which one when I hear it, but sometimes I play a couple of tracks again to decide. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I got into a weird routine of listening to every single album 3/4 times even if I really hated it because I knew some albums had grown on me before. I'm realising now I never properly hated the albums that grew on me, they just didn't make me feel anything on first listen. I find the more music I listen to the more I differentiate between those different feelings. Now, if it made me feel something I'll definitely relisten and I try to relisten to anything that I just felt neither good or bad about. I will never relisten to something that I had an overwhelming dislike for on 1st listen. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I actually base my ratings off of how many times I listen.
If I can't get through it, it gets a 1
If it's alright, but I still don't get through it, it gets a 2
One time through, 3
More than once, 4
More than once and I loved it, 5 | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
.25 to 3
Some are bad enough I can't finish, some are good enough I let them run on repeat without notice, others are so good I actively WANT to listen to them again. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
if you only listen to something once you really can’t judge it | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-15-08 |
I will occasionally do a 2nd listen if I enjoy the album, but usually I either don't have time or am not interested.
Today's album, Fleet Foxes' self-titled album, got 2 listens. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Usually just once but if I like the album I'll replay it a few times that day.
I also pick my favorite songs from every album and add them to a playlist. I listen to that playlist on shuffle a lot. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Only once. If I really like it and it’s not in my library I’ll buy it and will listen a few more times at a later date. I just did that yesterday with Nick Cave and the bad seeds ‘murder ballads’ | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
At least once, I leave my immediate thoughts and a draft rating.
In my timezone albums don't drop until after lunch, so if it was good I might listen to it again the next morning and re-assess. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Just once but I keep them on my Spotify. Some of the albums I already know & was already a fan of. It’s nice to learn where my I’ve already been missing in the 2000s. I’ve been living too much where my life apparently ended in the 90s. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
It really depends on the album and the day. In an ideal world, I'd listen to everything twice, but practically life gets in the way. Most days, one listen is manageable, two listens isn't always during a very busy day.
Then it depends on the album. Some albums really don't need more than one listen, either because I was already familiar with it, or it's just a straightforward enough album that I get it on the first listen. On the other hand, some albums I really can't rate based on one listen alone and know that I need more time to digest it. These are often some of my favorites because there's so much to think about.
Lastly, I'm less likely to listen more than once to albums that are very long. I know there's a lot I possibly could get out of another listen to '69 Love Songs', but I'm just not subjecting myself to another 3 hours of that. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
It depends.
If it's an album I'm already familiar with, but I enjoy it, I'll give it 1 listen that day.
If it's an album I wasn't familiar with, but I enjoyed it, I'll give it about 2 listens if I can.
If I didn't enjoy the album I'll only listen to it once, regardless if I'm familiar with it or not. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Most albums I listen through twice. Overly long albums or albums that I hate I only listen through once. I really don't have time for more, although I would like to. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
Once. If the album is good enough then I’d relisten, but only because I enjoyed the music on the initial listen. Some, such as The Nightfly, as too boring to get into for more than one listen. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
