#1061 Chvrches – The Bones of What You Believe

I recognise the band named Chvrches, but I cannot say if I have ever heard their music. I am excited to hear their debut album The Bones of What You Believe because it is primarily a synth-pop record. My favourite songs are “The Mother We Share”, “We Sink”, “Gun”, “You Caught the Light”, and every […]

#1060 David Bowie – The Next Day

I think I stopped listening to new David Bowie music at the beginning of the 90s. I am not sure why. I think I do with all artists eventually. I move on to something more exciting. I think musicians who put out too many albums become boring to me. I do miss the days when […]

#1059 Kanye West – Yeezus

People really do like Kanye West’s music. I am surprised how many times he is on this list of 1001 Albums… I am more surprised that his albums are better than what I have heard of before actually listening to them. I do not like his live performances. I do not like autotune either. Yeezus […]

#1058 My Bloody Valentine – m b v

My Bloody Valentine are finally back after breaking up in 1997. They have only released three albums and m b v is the third studio and their third on the list of 1001 Albums…. Sadly, the album is not on Spotify so I had to turn to YouTube. I do not remember this album being released, but […]

#1057 Django Django – Django Django

I have never heard of Django Django. The British art rock band released their eponymous debut album in 2012. It received a lot of critical recognition, but I am not sure how the public felt about it, which means more because they are the ones who pay for it. I did not really like any […]

#1056 Jack White – Blunderbuss

Jack White was the one that was in a band, which I couldn’t remember the name of when I was writing the review on The Black Keys. I always mix the two bands up. Blunderbuss is White’s debut solo album. I probably will not like it because I never liked his voice. I did not […]

#1055 Frank Ocean – channel ORANGE

So many people have told me to listen to Frank Ocean, but I know more about him from TikTok music. channel ORANGE is his debut album. He had previously been a music ghostwriter. I thought those days were over. The whole business of ghostwriters is weird and terrible for the person who actually did the […]

#1054 Hot Chip – In Our Heads

Hot Chip‘s fifth studio album In Our Heads is one that I have heard before. I think I know their earlier albums better. This is my type of music; of course I listened to synth-pop in the 80s. I like that kind of music because it is fun to dance to and to escape from […]

#1053 Kendrick Lamar – Good Kid, M.A.A.D City

I have heard of Kendrick Lamar, but I cannot say that I know his music. Lamar’s second studio album Good Kid, M.A.A.D City was released in 2012. Why does every rapper have the same bio on Wikipedia? They are all considered the best rapper. Is that like a participation award? I did like the use of […]

#1052 Adele – 21

Adele! Who hasn’t heard of her? I mean really who? I remember her second album 21 so clearly. I was living in Budapest and everything was going good for me. I may have been stressed financially, but I had friends, food, and a flat. What made this album different is that other artists were singing […]
