#958 Beck – Sea Change

I think I have already stated that I am a fan of Beck‘s music. The reason I became a big fan was Sea Change. It does back to Debrecen, then Budapest with Tamás. I have never had a friend like him. He really fooled me for a long time. I thought he was the best […]

#957 The Roots – Phrenology

The Roots are famous for being the house band on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. I had not heard of them until I saw them on the late night series. Their fifth album Phrenology was a critical success, but it did not equal to commercial success. I guess they were not known in Hungary […]

#956 Christina Aguilera – Stripped

If there is one artist that I did not expect to be on this list it would be Christina Aguilera. She is in the irritating category for me. She has a powerful voice, but she overuses it and it makes me angry to listen to it. On the opposite end is Taylor Swift. She is […]

#955 Bruce Springsteen – The Rising

Bruce Springsteen. The Boss. What exactly is he the boss of? I was excited other another album from him. I did not like his music while I was growing up, but in the recent years it all changed. Maybe his music is for older people. The Rising is the twelfth album from Springsteen. I think […]

#954 Missy Elliott – Under Construction

Missy Elliott‘s fourth studio Under Construction was produced by Timbaland. It was nominate for two Grammy Awards. I did not like the album because it was too vulgar for me. I do not get it. Why does she think it is good to sing about her vagina? Trivia: The album’s third single was intended to […]

#953 Doves – The Last Broadcast

The Doves released their second studio album The Last Broadcast is 2002. I have heard one of their later albums, but this one is not familiar. Their debut album was great. “Satellites” is probably my favourite song on the album. It is the sound of dream pop in my head. Other good songs are “There […]

#952 The Flaming Lips – Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots

I have definitely heard of the The Flaming Lips. I even had a copy of their tenth album Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. “Fight Test”, “Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell”, “In the Morning of the Magicians”, “Are You a Hypnotist??”, “Do You Realize??”, and all the other songs on the album are my […]

#951 Johnny Cash – American IV: The Man Comes Around

Fifty Albums left. Johnny Cash again? He is so old at this point. I have never liked any of his music. American IV: The Man Comes Around was the last album of Johnny Cash before he died of complications from diabetes. As everyone knows by now, I am not a fan of country music. The […]

#950 The Coral – The Coral

British band The Coral released their eponymous debut album in 2002. It was listed in 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, but it was removed in a later edition. I wonder why it was removed. Maybe it did not age well. The first song gave me a clue why it was removed. I am […]

#949 Coldplay – A Rush of Blood to the Head

Coldplay is back again. I was a huge fan in the early days. I saw them in concert once and it was incredible. A Rush of Blood to the Head is their second studio album. The album relies more on electric guitar and piano than Parachutes. I will not waste time writing about this album. I […]
