#918 Common – Like Water For Chocolate

I have heard of Common and I appreciate the fact that he makes music, but I have never listened to it. Like Water For Chocolate is his fourth studio album, but first major release. I had already hated the album and finished the review when “Geto Heaven Part Two” came on. I liked this one, but […]

#917 Coldplay – Parachutes

Coldplay is the band that brought me out of my spiritual journey. I accidentally heard one of their songs somewhere and I wanted more. It was their debut album Parachutes that drew me in and the song was “Yellow“. I really do not need to listen to this album to score it, but I will because […]

#916 Erykah Badu – Mama’s Gun

If your name is Erica, then why would you change it to Erykah? That is what the artist known as Erykah Badu did. Sorry, but that is just dumb. Mama’s Gun is Badu’s second studio album. I have not listened to this album. I grew up with soul music, but I seemed to lost a […]

#915 PJ Harvey – Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea is PJ Harvey’s third album on the list of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. I liked second album To Bring You My Love better than the first one Rid of Me on the list; I even gave it an 8. Harvey released her fifth studio album about […]

#914 Badly Drawn Boy – The Hour of Bewilderbeast

Badly Drawn Boy is an artist I have listened to in the past. I have listened to his debut album The Hour of Bewilderbeast a few times. He scored the soundtrack for the film About A Boy, which is another album I liked. I think he is underrated. I forget to listen to him too. “Pissing […]

#913 Elliott Smith – Figure 8

I believe Figure 8 is Elliott Smith‘s second time on the list of 1001. It is his fifth studio album. I believe I have already written about his death in the previous album on the list. You can search for it on my blog. And now to listen to his album of power pop and […]

#912 Linkin Park – Hybrid Theory

I have heard of Linkin Park from many friends and enemies, but I have never heard their music. I have read their music has changed since their 2000 release of Hybrid Theory. This album is nu metal and rap metal, but their late changed to electronic rock. I bet they gained some new fans, but […]

#911 U2 – All That You Can’t Leave Behind

U2‘s All That You Can’t Leave Behind might be their last album that is worth calling great. How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb was an extension of this album and No Line on the Horizon was a bit of a disappointment because we were promised something more experimental. Their last two albums I have not even […]

#910 Radiohead – Kid A

If there is any group that I am not surprised to see again on the list it is Radiohead. Kid A is the band’s fourth studio album. At the time of its release it divided fans and critics. It was thought to be pretentious. Time has been extremely kind to the album. Those critics would […]

#909 Limp Bizkit – Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water

Limp Bizkit? A friend once asked me, “What is a Limp Bizkit?” I have no idea was my response. She told me it might mean the guy can’t “you know”. I laughed because she was right. Personally, I would not advertise it. Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water is their third album. I have […]
