I've hit 100 albums but I've barely scratched the surface of what's to come! [https://1001albumsgenerator.com/shares/663984de44ad712f03ee7206](https://1001albumsgenerator.com/shares/663984de44ad712f03ee7206) I look forward to rolling even more. | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-23-08 |
Can't believe it's been a year, I have really enjoyed it so far. I look forward to a new album every day. | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
my favorite beatles album | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |

The Stevie Wonder effect (not metal!) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Kool Keith/Dr Octagon has an album on here? Wow!
I'm not complaining that Dr Octagon made the cut, I just wasn't expecting to see it.
Also where the hell is White Pony? We've got Devil Without A Cause on here and no Deftones?
| r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
the biggest miss is blue album by weezer. no clue how that missed the list | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
The fact that Devil Without a Cause is still in the book in the most recent edition from 2021 is a choice. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
It’s far more important that you hear 17 Elvis Costello albums. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Along the same lines, clarity by Jimmy Eat World was an extremely influential album for a lot of successful bands of the early 00s. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Don't get me wrong, that album has some tracks that love it or hate it were a big part of the cultural zeitgeist at the time so I understand its inclusion.
But...come on, White Pony? And while we're at it, Lateralus?
I'm doing the list chronologically and I'm 360 albums in and still in 1976. It feels like everything ... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Also I don't like Neil Young's voice. I've learned that while doing this challenge. I'll listen to everything I come across, but I just don't like Neil Young. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I love how thorough this book is for older music. But...uh...yeah, it bugs me how many artists are way, way overrepresented (NEIL FRIGGIN YOUNG) while lots of the amazing albums that were staples of my youth/adolescence (90s/00s) are completely absent or overlooked.
At least Stereolab made the list somehow. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
No They Might Be Giants album is kinda wild to me personally. Maybe just cause I’m a huge fan but they are such a unique, fun band, their albums Flood or Lincoln could easily be on the list over another of Elvis Costellos or more ubiquitous British rock. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
And when you rate all 17 low, someone here will still suggest you listen to one that’s not on the list, because *that* one will make you an Elvis Costello fan. Not that I’m speaking from experience or anything… | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I think there's a lot of 90s stuff that shouldn't be on the list. Even albums that I like. HmS fable by Shack was a fun listen, but you can't tell me it should be on a list of the 1001 albums you should hear before you die.
Brit pop was massive but it's over represented for sure | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
There's a lot of stuff that should be there and isn't, and vice versa.
In any case, I think lots of people underestimate just how big Bawditidaba was at the time. Deftones were popular, but that Kid Rock album was _big_. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
the editors hated emo though. only 1 album is emo in the entire list (drive like jehu) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
neil young is a bigger offender than costello. same with bowie | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Ultimately my conclusion will be that there are, in fact, *not* 1001 albums that anyone needs to hear before they're done.
500 was probably quite a good number picked by Rolling Stone! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Bowie having multiple albums on the list makes sense. No way Ziggy Stardust sounds like Station To Station, or Hunky Dory sounds like Blackstar. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I’d argue the difference is all of Elvis Costello’s albums sound pretty much the same! Neil Young and Bowie can certainly not be accused of that. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Right? Flood is one of the most interesting albums I've ever heard. Surely it's a more worthy addition than Kid Rock's album "Sounds of Pabst Blue Ribbon and Skoal" | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
i mean...i had it. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I love the absurdity of the lyric "I will never say the word 'procrastinate' again / I'll never see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed." (From the song Dead.) Every so often I find myself singing this, so many years later!
TMBG was a huge influence in the late 80s, but maybe that's overshadowed by their kids' ... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
costello is quality throughout. cant say the same for bowie and especially not neil young | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
that's fair and all but still, he's overrepresented. I had 2 Bowie albums before I hit #200, Young Americans and The Next Day, and lbr none of them have any business being on the list | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Hello! I’m on my mobile so I am sorry if the formatting isn’t great.
My fiancé has nearly finished this project (so much fun!) and I thought that it would be nice to buy him a copy of the most recent book to celebrate. Annoyingly, in the UK the 2021 edition is only available for several hundred pounds. Does anyone kn... | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
Several hundred pounds. That's crazy!
I guess you had a look at Amazon?
I've also noticed it can be hard to find the most recent edition.
While i understand it might feel better to buy the most recent i would probably just try to find an older version at a cheaper price.
No matter which version you get it still ... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
£399 and another at £880 for a second hand for the 2021 version off of abe and Amazon respectively!
Thank you for your reply. I was leaning towards a nicer copy of an earlier version but just wanted to double check that I wasn’t missing something obvious as I was not expecting the latest update to be so in demand! Chee... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I ended up buying an older version off eBay for a good deal. Have you checked there? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I remember seeing it in waterstones for a price that wasn't a rip off, but I don't know if it was the most recent version. This was probably a couple of years ago. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
I saw the Andy Warhol cover version in a secondhand record shop a couple of weeks ago for a few quid - if you’re in the Sheffield area I can tell you more precisely but I realise that’s a long shot! I do feel like it’s one that appears in secondhand places from time to time. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-24-08 |
There are a load of older versions available in good condition so I think that I will go for one of them - thank you! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Thanks! I can’t see it online but that doesn’t mean that a random store doesn’t still have a copy! I’ll keep an eye out. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Thank you! I’m down South but I think this gives me a great reason to do more charity book shopping. I think I’ll grab an older edition online and then try to keep an eye out for the newer one. Thank you though! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Glad it worked out! It sucks it’s impossible to find the latest edition without taking out another mortgage, but the older ones are 99% the same anyway. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Already knew this masterpiece very well so I don’t have to worry about rushing through it in a day. | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Back in the days before streaming it was one that had always intrigued me on the CD shop shelves. But I ended up buying it purely on the strength of one song: The Book Of Love. My now-wife put the Peter Gabriel cover on the first mix CD she ever made me and it immediately became one of my favourite songs of all time. (... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
I'm going to see them play it live next week. Can't wait | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
I got this one "assigned" to me Friday and listened to it straight through. Classic. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Ahh amazing! Enjoy | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |

knowing my luck ill get this on a day i have to wake up early haha
i listen right before i go to sleep so far the longest was i believe an hour and a half | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
I preordered that from my local recordshop when it came out and it took like MONTHS to arrive because something got messed up and I was so excited when I finally got it, LOVE that album! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
Just saw it in Edinburgh over the last 2 nights, you’re in for such a treat! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
It's a very good album but man do I wish it had be cut down to a single disc. 3+ hours is a lot to digest and some songs are definitely stronger than others. Take the 20 or best songs and it would have such a strong album.
Having said that, I do admire the ambition of this project and the variety of styles present. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
So far…
6 5*’s,
17 4*’s,
7 1*’s.
Many 3 and 2 stars!
Best totally new discoveries: The Pretty Things, S. F. Sorrow, and Big Star, Third.

FWIW I think you’re an album early on your ‘Fuck Coldplay’ arc but I don’t actually know which of their albums are on the list so I guess you had to grab that chance when it came. (I avoid reading the full list to maintain some feeling of surprise each day).
Parachutes and Rush of Blood are great records, it’s X&Y wh... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
I have always hated Rush of Blood! I haven’t had Parachutes yet but I don’t remember finding it quite as offensive. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
I can't stand Coldplay, but Parachutes is genuinely great. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |

Hello!
My generator normally refreshes at 4am. It's now 7am and it hasn't ticked over. I'm on the user-submitted albums. Usually if it hits the end I get the "no more" page after submitting, but atm I can't submit my latest rating (Hikaru Utada - Deep Blue, 3/5, not too bad if a little bland and long). Any ideas? | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-25-08 |
That's strange!
I just tried to manually trigger it and it seem to have worked. So if you have a look you should be able to rate it.
No idea why it didnt fire at the usual time, please let me know if it happens again. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
cheers man, works now :) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
great, i'm very curious whether this will work the next time you should get a new album.
so feel free to report back here tonight(tomorrow your time).
For everyone else reading: This is a specific schedule for australian time zone so this doesnt effect anyone else. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
Hey it worked, ticked over at 4am as usual! Thanks again man | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |

Great! | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Day 300 and i've loved (nearly) every second. Im sure i'll recognise vast swathes of this, but ive no recollection of ever sitting down and listening to this on purpose. Am i in for a treat? | r/1001albumsgenerator | post | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
Hell yeah you are | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
Yep. Watch or play The Wall - Live In Berlin afterwards. That concert levels up the album. I still get chills when I hear “Hey You” | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
The Wall is one of my favorite albums of all time.
It is the most essential rock opera, in my opinion. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
The Wall is undoubtedly a great album. Even more clearly, an impressively important album.
But whether you find yourself loving this record or not vibing with it at all, to me one of the very best things about this album is being able to form an opinion on it.
It’s a divisive and prickly record and can lead to disc... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
It's a grower. From one listen you might struggle, but after a few listens yes, it's a masterpiece. My family and I have probably had more discussions over what it all means more than any other album. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
Too many songs are there just to drive the story forward and keep it flowing. Not many great songs. Overrated, in my (probably heavily downvoted) opinion | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-26-08 |
OP, how did you go with the album? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-28-08 |
I got in early in my journey as well. Glad to get it out of the way | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
good album | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Today I got *Revolver*.
Who wins? I suppose we'll never know. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
I’m going Gristle. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
This album is great, 4 stars from me. "Hamburger Lady" alone is monumental achievement in musical horror. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
This made me want to rip my ear out | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
OOOOO! I haven't gotten that one yet and I'm at 933 as of today! Hopefully its not as aggressive as Spy vs Spy was. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Give me this over any of the Leonard Cohen albums IMO. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
LC sux | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
I actually like several of the lowest rated albums. Off the top of my head I know I gave Napalm Death a 5 and Lightning Bolt a 4. That said I gave this a 1. I absolutely couldn't take it. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
I just did not like that one lol | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
i actually enjoyed this one more than i expected - still not above a two tho | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
This is much better than all 67 Elvis Costello albums on the list. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Maybe they are lazy to write a review, but when they browse through their history they want to have a review there, so they just find one and copy-paste it | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Could be it! Seems like more hassle than it's worth though | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |

I see this ChatGPT regurgitator all the time, it's f'ing annoying.

There's a bit of a hidden "feature" where users can make their reviews private, meaning they won't show up on album pages.
I could probably add that to this one, seems obvious it's just AI written stuff. Which is fine really, but doesn't add anything of value to the public album pages imo. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-28-08 |
I often find myself wishing I had a bit more context than you get from the wiki summary (which is usually just a general overview of when the album was released during an artist’s career, it’s critical reception, and commercial success), but I don’t always have the energy to go digging myself. I typically like to go in... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-28-08 |
Did you listen to the albums in book chronologically? And if so do you think it makes a difference in your listening/thoughts doing it in a random order vs chronologically? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
I listened randomly. I tried to mix the artists that i knew nothing about with those I knew.
I definitely think it makes a difference, mainly because of genre (e.g. new wave and post-punk in the eighties or british dance in the 90's) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
What was your favourite album, and your favourite new find? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
My favorite album was Rumours by Fleetwood Mac before starting the project. It still is my favorite album.
Among many good discoveries, both albums by the Pogues, "the Colour of Spring" by Talk Talk, "Spiderland" by Slint and "Something/Anything" by Todd Rundgren | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
I can’t help but feel there’d be quite a lot lost cramming so many albums into one day. How would you say your experiences have varied to this point? | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
When I started the project nearly 500 albums ago I was kind of looking forward to restarting and listening to them all over again, but now I just want it to end! It's like the best/worst thing I've ever undertaken, like studying for a degree or something. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Somedays were tougher than others, but I'm pretty much always listening to music, at home or at work.
I tried varying the musical genre in a day, and the albums lenght (days with 7 albums were 30 minutes album usually) | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
Listening to many albums a day is a different experience than doing the generator.
With one album a day, it kind of gives me a hype to see what is gonna be the next album | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-27-08 |
I was recently traveling and didn't really have time to listen to albums each day. I kept generating them anyway and just built up a backlog. On my plane ride home, I went through as many as I could. It's definitely a different listening experience and I purposely chose albums that I felt I could digest a bit easier. I... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-28-08 |
I feel early 80s slightly electronic English new wave is over represented as a genre. I'm thinking bands like echo and the bunny men etc. They appear on my list, I listen to them, they are vaguely ok and then I forget about them again.

I like the Vines, and I guess it is more internationally known, but it's nowhere as good as Hourly Daily. | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-28-08 |
I wouldn't swap many artists, but there are some instances where I'd swap which albums are included by specific artists. Massive Attack and Daft Punk are good shouts, but omitting 'Mezzanine' and 'Discovery' is criminal.
Apart from that my big change would be that I would limit all artists (with a handful of exceptio... | r/1001albumsgenerator | comment | r/1001AlbumsGenerator | 2024-28-08 |
