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 |

> 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 |

I'm a fan of Kollaps. Knowing it's history might help. It's like a soundtrack to the cold war and the weird instruments creates such a cold atmosphere that i just find brilliant in it's context.
D.O.A on the other hand didn't do much to me, rated it a 2 but wouldn't be surprised to see a higher rating with more listens.

I appreciated Kollaps way more than I thought I would. When I heard somebody start drilling into mortar or something I thought, "Here we go. Time to earn that 1 star." But I listened to the whole album and it didn't annoy me. I gave it a 3, but I'll probably listen to it again with your context in mind and see how I feel.
I haven't gotten Throbbing Gristle though. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
In my opinion, if you got through Kollaps, and tolerated it, then Throbbing Gristle will probably be the same for you. I gave both a three. I liked Hamburger Lady off of the Throbbing Gristle album. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
I'm a fan of industrial music, and while neither of these albums are favorites of mine, they are both important pieces of history in the genre. Out of the two, I prefer Kollaps, but I'm also a big Neubauten fan in particular (I have a 13" Neubauten rib tattoo). I believe I gave both albums 4s.
I find it disappointing (if somewhat unsurprising) that these two albums rank below Chocolate Starfish and Devil Without a Cause... But I find it disappointing that a lot of the lowest ranked albums are where they are. I love Captain Beefheart and Butthole Surfers and John Zorn. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
both of these albums are nowhere near the worst on the list | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
I surprised myself and gave Kollaps a 3. The concept of them constructing their own instruments from bits and pieces appeals to me. I imagined it as some kind of performance art and pictured myself watching it live and how that would be | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-16-08 |
I preferred D.O.A. by a decent amount, though that may be because I had heard 20 Jazz Funk Greats previously | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
I don’t particularly love Neubauten, Throbbing Gristle, John Zorn, Liars, etc. but like…they’re fine. they are not bad albums. people unfortunately just don’t know what they’re listening to. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
I personally think Throbbing Gristle is the cooler album of the two. I mean, something like Hamburger Lady alone creates such a horrifying atmosphere so unknown in popular music, especially compared to the rest of the list, except maybe the Suicide album. Meanwhile, for me, Kollaps feels just kind of funny, and I'm not totally sure why | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
I gave Throbbing Gristle a 5 and Destiny’s Child a 1. AMA
I like the sounds on TG. They are evocative and to package them together as an album is good art to me. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
But how many Dexys Midnight Runners albums have you had to listen to yet? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
I haven't received Kollaps yet, but I'm familiar with the album. I'm a little conflicted because I absolutely love Neubauten's later work. In my opinion, Kollaps is their most important album, but it's also their worst, in terms of listenability. I haven't decided yet how to rate it and will wait until it comes up in the generator before I listen again. On its significance alone, it deserves to be higher on the list, but I get why people don't like it. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
It’s a shame people are so averse to “difficult” albums. I really would have thought people going through a thousand albums would be more open to hearing stuff that’s a bit out there. But I guess it also makes sense that people are hoping to find classics similar to what they like they might have missed.
How’s it looking for the user submitted albums? Someone posted a ranking of those a while back but I forgot how to get there. My submission (Peasant by Richard Dawson) was basically at the very bottom, maybe even last actually. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
I hated both of them and found them both very difficult and annoying to listen to. I can appreciate the historical importance but for my musical tastes, they were torture to get through. Both received 1 stars from me. I'm through 970 albums so very near the end and definitely agree these are amongst the worst things I've listened to on the list. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
Browsing the entire ”lowest” list makes it clear that 1001albumers just aren’t that into experimental music. Which is fine, but it’s a clear trend that makes that list a pointless stat for anyone who is into that stuff. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
Yep those stats are always gonna have the least listenable stuff at the bottom.
The user base has grown pretty organic, so I'd say we have a pretty good variety of users, from music lovers to people who just want to get into music. So having those at the bottom makes sense, it's obvious they're aimed at a pretty specific audience.
That differ a lot from RYM where it's mainly music lovers who rates these kind of albums. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
I only got Throbbing Gristle so far. Hated it. I don't even understand why some people like it.
I did hear Kollaps before. I don't like it very much, but I don't hate it. At least I understand what's good about it. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-17-08 |
