#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 […]

#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 […]

#1048 Arcade Fire – The Suburbs

The Suburbs is the third studio album of Arcade Fire. This is an album that I know well. I used to listen to it a lot in Budapest with my best friend. I miss those days. I miss feeling that connection with another person. I miss feeling known. I have felt alone for the past […]

1030 – TV On The Radio – Dear Science

I think 2011 was around the time TV On The Radio came into my knowledge of them as a band. Oddly, I was certain they were Australians, but they are actually Americans. Their third album Dear Science was released in 2008. I recognize the title of the album, but I am not sure if I […]

1027 Elbow – The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow‘s fourth studio album The Seldom Seen Kid is one that I sort of remember. There was so many bands during this time period, which played alternative and art rock music. I think most of them got lost in the mix. Their previous album Leaders of the Free World sounds more familiar to me. The […]

#1019 Radiohead – In Rainbows

Radiohead‘s seventh studio album In Rainbows was recognised as one of the best albums of 2007 and of the decade by many music publications. The released the album as a pay-what-you-want, which they claimed made money for them. I believe most band do not make much money from album sales. They make it from concert […]

#1005 Richard Hawley – Coles Corner

Who is Richard Hawley? He is an English singer-songwriter, guitarist, and producer. He has worked with a lot of artists, but he is not well known in the States. Coles Corner is Hawley’s fourth studio album. Another question to answer is “What is Coles Corner?” It is a popular meeting place of old and new […]

#993 TV on the Radio – Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes

TV on the Radio did not enter my life until later. Maybe even four years later than their 2004 album Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes. I had no idea that they were an American band. I thought they were Aussies for some odd reason. I think I was watching an Australian series when I discovered […]

#962 Radiohead – Hail to the Thief

Radiohead‘s Hail to the Thief is their sixth studio album and their fifth album on the list of 1001 Albums… That is quite an achievement. The only album that is not listed is Pablo Honey, which is their debut album. Thom Yorke‘s lyrics are in response to the war on terror and the resurgence of […]

#945 Wilco – Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Wilco‘s third studio album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot was released online in 2001, but it did not get its physical release until 2002. The chances of me liking this album are pretty low. I have not be a big fan of their previous albums. I will be fair in my review! I actually liked this album. It was […]
