#723 Tom Waits – Bone Machine

Tom Waits fifth and final album on the list was his tenth studio album Bone Machine. This album features a lot of special guest appearances such as Primus‘ Les Claypool, Waddy Wachtel known for his work with Stevie Nicks, and The Rolling Stones’ Keith Richards. This album has dark themes of murder and death. I could not get […]

#722 Sugar – Copper Blue

Sugar is one of those bands I remember seeing their name everywhere, but I never listened to them. I knew that singer/guitarist Bob Mould was in Hüsker Dü, but I did not know that band either until I started this list of 1001 Albums. Copper Blue was their critically acclaimed debut album. Another album that […]

#721 Spiritualized – Lazer Guided Melodies

I know I have heard of Spiritualized, but it was probably a later album. I missed their debut album Lazer Guided Melodies. It seems from the description that I would enjoy it. English space rock sounds trippy to me. I think it will be great. The first song “You Know It’s True” reminded me of […]

#720 The Pharcyde – Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde

I have never heard of The Pharcyde. As you may know by now, I am not a fan of hip hop and rap. Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde was their debut album. They infused their hip hop with jazz music and light-hearted vulgar lyrics. The second song on the album sums up my feelings exactly […]

#719 R.E.M. – Automatic for the People

I have already reviewed a couple albums from R.E.M. I was a huge fam of their music. I remember when their eighth album Automatic for the People came out in 1992. My best friend was Eric. He was a drummer. I was going through a rough time in life, but he was there for a […]

#718 Dr. Dre – The Chronic

I am not sure that I have ever heard a song from Dr. Dre. I am not a fan of rap. I imagine I will not like his 1992 debut solo album The Chronic. I will be extremely brief on this review. Firstly, the album was not available on Spotify. I listened to it on […]

#717 k.d. lang – Ingénue

k.d. lang is an artist I have only heard one good song from on the radio. I knew she was a country artist so I avoided her like I avoid macaroni and cheese. Ingénue was her 1992 release which featured the one song I know and her more cabaret sound. Actually, the album is not […]

#716 Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy – Hypocrisy Is the Greatest Luxury

I have heard of Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, but hip hop is definitely not my genre so I never listened to their debut album Hypocrisy Is the Greatest Luxury. Even now after all these years I am not excited to listen to it. I wish this was not on the list. I remember the early […]

#715 Rage Against The Machine – Rage Against The Machine

Rage Against The Machine released their self-titled album of rap metal at the end of 1992. In the same time frame Whitney Houston released the soundtrack album of “The Bodyguard” so you can see why many of us missed the album Rage Against The Machine. The album is listed in many list as one of […]

#714 The Lemonheads – It’s a Shame About Ray

i remember some of my friends were fans of The Lemonheads, especially their fifth album It’s a Shame About Ray. I think i liked them okay, but not enough to buy the album. Alternative rock had become popular during this time period. It was one of my favourite genres, but it became too generic. Trivia: […]
