Reviews (page 8 of 8)

What a strange album.

There is also a thing as "too much Kate Bush"... The constant up-and-down with her high voice is quite annoying.

I read the entry and the artistic regard, but it’s very difficult to listen to.

She is truly an inspiration for tone deaf people everywhere

Didn't like anything about it.

was soll das toad feature auf dem ersten track? einzelne ansätze waren gut aber sehr durcheinander. eigentlich ist das ganze album ein durcheinander aber mehr wie ein autounfall und nicht wie ein künstlerchaos.

Fuck this

Unlistenable

Fuck this

I don’t understand Kate Bush at all. This is just not for me.

Just no

Eikös Kate Bush ole arvostettu ja erittäin menestynyt brittisrtisti? Ja eikös tämäkin levy ole ollut aikanaan arvostelu- ja myyntimenestys? Ihmettelen suuresti. Yksi huonoimmista levyistä joita olen kuullut koskaan. Tekotaiteellista paskaa. Bushilla voi olla vaikka miten hieno ääni mutta koko albumi tällaista falsettikiekumista ja huutoa on raskasta kuunnella. En kerta kaikkiaan keksi mitään hyvää sanottavaa. Pitäisikö, onhan kyseessä merkittävä naisartisti? Olkoon vaan, huono mikä huono! Ihmettelen myös sitä, miten matalalla rima on ollut tällaista julkaista ja mikä tässä on ollut sellaista, että ilmeisesti ainakin britit ovat tästä hullaantuneet. Oli miten oli, en ymmärrä ja kuulostaa hirveältä ka lähinnä ärsyttää. 1/5

scary circus clown music no gracias

I’m only familiar with Running Up That Hill from Stranger Things. Unfortunately, Kate is not the type of artist that I gravitate towards.

Dit is het derde en laatste album van Kate Bush dat we voor onze kiezen krijgen. Dat check ik toch altijd even van tevoren, zeker zo op het einde van de lijst. Wat me daarbij gelijk opvalt, is dat dit dus haar 4e album is dat ze uit heeft gebracht, maar ook het oudste dat in de snoblijst staat. De snobs kiezen er voor om niet het debuut uit te kiezen of uberhaupt een van de eerste drie albums. Die zullen dan wel vrij obscuur zijn, denk je dan. Hoe vaak gebeurt dat niet bij dit soort artiesten? Wat blijkt: haar debuut heeft onder andere "the man with the child in his eyes" en "wuthering heights". Op album 3 staat "Babooshka". Niet zomaar kleine hitjes me dunkt. Bovendien zijn de 1e 3 albums multiplatina gegaan. En dit album: zilver. Het slechts verkochte album van Kate Bush aller tijden. Waarom staat dit in godsnaam in deze lijst??! Waar slaat dit op? De muziek is ook gewoon ronduit kut. Het is vaag, ze wringt haar stem in onmogelijke posities, er zitten slechte geluidseffecten in. En bovendien is het beresaai. De keuze is simpelweg niet uit te leggen. Kies toch gewoon het debuutalbum man, dat heb ik gewoon zonder problemen hierna opgezet. Ik ga voor dit album een hele grote dikke vette 1 geven, omdat de snobs wat mij betreft allemaal ontslagen mogen worden. Wat een stelletje zelfingenomen flapdrollen zijn het toch

This was definitely experimental. And unique. And avant-garde. But not for me.

Someone described this album as a "cat scratching at my balls" and I believe him. Fave track: Pull Out the Pin

I appreciate the gusto, but I’d rather listen to a fire alarm.

Beetje jankerig

Not many times does an album say man What the fuck is this shit This is one of those times I mean sure there’s some cool random sounds. but honestly, like I get it it’s experimental, but that doesn’t mean that it ain’t shit like none of these songs are like catchy make me want to return to the album at all. I mean props to the people that could give this album multiple lessons. it’s a one and done for me Miss Bush like you’re known for running for up that hill and that’s it. As of right now.

This is awful. Kate Bush makes Bjork sound like Aretha Franklin. Kate Bush is incredibly overrated. 80s music sucks. Of course this is one of Bjork's favorite albums. The title track is like a pirate shanty. This is terrible, there is not a single redeeming feature of this album.

My last Kate Bush album. From memory I gave the other 2 a fat 1, so I'm ready for this to be shit too. By about song 2 I knew this was going to be fucked and would be rating this low. I seriously don't get the appeal of Kate Bush, she is probably the most overrated artist from the 80's. The worst song on this fucking album had 18,000,000 streams (Suspended in Gaffa)? Why?? It's annoying at BEST. Anyways, it's not very often I have to give up on an album because it's so terrible - this is one of them. Thank God I never have to listen to another Kate Bush album again in my life.

Just a bit weird but mad respect

Too many silly voices on songs like ‘There Goes A Tenner’ and ‘ The Dreaming’. I just dont get Kate Bush, like pop meets prog rock

What did I just listen too, more accurately, what did I just skip through. Awful mess that was all over the place.

Man this album is really crap. It's incredibly annoying at almost every turn. Kate Bush's voice grates like crazy. The one good thing I liked was sometimes the drums were cool. I just don't see what everybody else is seeing about Kate Bush, this album was terrible

Not for me

I dislike this music and kate's voices. Never a fan and it has not changed. Experimental pop gone wrong

Pretty much unlistenable.

Discordant, disorganized, and downright hard to listen to. I understand there's a level of artsy/ethereal going on here, but it does not land at all when the album is just plain bad

Didn’t really care for it

OMG why is she on this list???

What the fuck did I just listen to?

Pretentious nonsense.

Quirky. Bonkers. Unlistenable, Christ, she can't half shriek.

Had a very difficult time listening to this whole album. Personally not my cup of tea.

A bit too experimental and not enough melody

Alr 80s pop herwego T1 hate the beginning, started to like it as the singer started singing more weird. Seems like a concept album maybe? Excited to hear the rest of the songs, probably wouldn’t relisten often to t1 but I enjoyed listening T2 Hate this falsetto T6 Some weird tribal music hell yea T10 Ayo? Horse noises? That’s wild (echoes is the best PF song)

Self indulgent noise. Hated it.

No. I’d rather rub one out with sandpaper than hear her voice.

This was just jarring. I wanted to like it, I really did, but the attempts at screams just genuinely made my skin crawl each time. It was a rough listen and borderline painful.

The first album on this list I couldn’t finish

I can honestly say I hate this album, my first one star. I only know her from Stranger things so I woke up cautiously optimistic. I am not impressed with any part of it and at several times found it actively annoying.

I know why the weird theatre girl in high school was into Kate Bush, I don’t know…both weird and leaves no lasting impression. As an odd comparison as this is - sometimes the "i want to say something art-y" conecept album becomes blovated crap...so with the Wall by Pink Floyd so goes The Dreaming.

Not my thing

It's not often that I hear something I really hate, for the entirety of my listen, but this has done it. I think you'll be hard pressed to find a more irritating album than The Dreaming on this list. Every song was just a mess, vocally, instrumentally, you name it. They say if you can't say anything nice to not say anything at all, so I'll leave it at that.

This is just not for me. I really did not like this album at all.

Artsy avant garde eccentric pop. I am really not a fan of her voice! Gets worse each song, that last song is dreadful! 1.5/5

Three fucking Kate Bush albums? Give me a break. I imagine the theater kids like it. I find it constantly irritating. It doesn’t suffer from the awful mid-80s production like her later albums. But there wasn’t a single moment that swept me up the way good music does.

While the previous two Kate Bush albums were tolerable to alright, this album is unlistenable.

Kate Bush is very talented. I’m glad she stopped wasting that talent on weird noises, grunting, and other experimental nonsense.

This is not the Kate Bush of running up that hill. This is some theatrical 80s bit, and I'm not into it at all. 1*

God she is so annoying on this album.

This was awful. It was like she’s was trying to be “unique” just for the sake of it. Was I at the circus? The opera? At a yoko ono concert? Not for me at all.

What the actual fuck was this kate

Son connu

This album is awful. It’s weird, pretentious and irritating. The vocals are terrible, the lyrics are nonsensical are the music is basic. This list has been a mixed bag. Some good albums, some not so good. Sometimes I can appreciate the talent of the songwriters, but it’s not my style. In those cases, I don’t like to be too harsh with my reviews, but “The Dreaming” is just downright rubbish and I’m irked that someone added it to this list.

It was interesting, but not for me.

Got through one song. Top 1001 albums of all time? listen to before I die? Nope.

I really cannot stand Kate's voice. I know she's very creative, but I just can't do it. So I did not listen.

Pre-listen: So, I've never heard of a R&B/Hip Hop sci-fi concept record, so this is kind of exciting. Listening notes: I love the big-band work. Production is strong. There are a lot of moving parts to this, and it's put together really well. I love the idea better than the execution though...though, to be fair, the genre isn't something I gravitate toward, so that might be part of my problem. Truth is, I think everything is done really well, and it's interesting, at least from a technical standpoint. I think where it falls kinda flat for me is the front half of the record. The back half picks up some, and she goes in some crazy directions musically that I didn’t expect, but the front half kind of drags. Ultimately, I could see where this record would appeal to some people, and I'm not hating on what this seemingly really talented artist is doing here. But, as weird and unexpected and eccentric as the record is as a whole, I probably won’t revisit it on account of the first handful of songs. 3.7/5

clown music. didnt finish

Jesus christ its another Kate Bush album Stop trying to make Kate Bush happen, it's not going to happen! Terrible vocals aside - the music itself was utter shite! Not only do we get screeching and wailing, but in this album we get bonus donkey noises! And at one point she went full on Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins 1 ⭐️

Absolument pas mon genre

What the hell was that

Super fucking annoying

I couldn't even finish the first few songs

I can see why some people love Kate Bush. I’m not one of those people. Good lord, I had to turn this off 4 songs in

I have a friend who is a fan. So I've tried. I tried in the '80s. I tried in the '90s. I tried this morning. I just can't do it. For starters, I'm just not a fan of any 'theatrical' / Baroque style pop music. But I can occasionally get past that with other artists. What I can't get past is her voice. It feels like an ice pick in my eye. I literally feel it more than I hear it. She supposedly has great lyrics, I'll have to take their word for it. I honestly can't make out any words. Just stabbing pain to the brain. She's the only artist I can think of that I have a purely physiological response to.

What the fuck was that.

Weird. Bad.

uniikkia mutta en pidä

“There goes a tenner” -someone after buying this album in 1982 and listening to it

Kate Bush is a national treasure. She's broken boundaries, pushed limits, strived to fulfill her very own vision with little or no compromise. She also seems to have quite a self-deprecating sense of humour. So, what's not to like? Well, the fact that her vision just doesn't align with my tastes at all. I'd sit down for a pint with her and I think she'd be great company to chat away an evening. I'd just hope she'd never bring up her music in conversation so we can avoid that awkward silence - or, after a few pints, my very wordy way of trying to express that I mostly appreciate the theoretical concept of what she's doing and how she's doing it, but not so much the actual result.

It’s always pleasing when I find an album here that I like more than I thought I would. This isn’t one of them. This album was often irritating and I don’t need that in my life.

Baffling, especially with her voice at its screamy screechiest. I'm sure Kate has her place but not with this wildy experimental and self-indulgent album.

This one did not land the way she wanted. Is this a joke?

I think Kate Bush is trying to out weird Bjork. Very bizarre style. I know she can sing but not on this album. She sounds like she took singing lessons from Yoko Ono. There is not a single song on this album I would willingly listen to again.

This is my 2nd review for a Kate Bush album I think I just don't like Kate Bush.

'Experimental' apparently means shit in the music world. The 'Layers' of music are different layers of shite.

Nope. Not good at all.

Maybe this is my bad for not knowing this album would be a weird concept album posing as the score to an off-broadway musical I would never attend. That is to say, I had expectations (an album of normal Kate Bush songs), and they were unmet. All that being said, if somebody had warned me, I would have come in hating it. It’s like telling somebody the movie will have a twist, and then they’re looking for it. If somebody had said I should prepare for donkey hee-haws and intonations that sounded awkwardly like a drama camp recital, it would also have ruined this album.

God... that was just terrible. Weird to be weird. So glad Kate got her shit together for Hounds of Love a couple years later. It's like night and day between these two albums.

I was today years old when I learnt that Kate Bush sucks. The Dreaming is a bad musical soundtrack. 2.7/10

Didnt really like her voice

What did I just listen to?

I did not like this. 1

Apparently I don’t like any of her musc based on her 2 albums I’ve listened to.

I just don't understand her appeal. She's got some crazy energy.

Do you like to listen to women scream over mediocre melodies in a repetitive fashion? If so, boy have I got the album for you. 1/5

Not for me. 1/5

The only thing this album has going for it is that it tips its hand from the onset and lets you know it’s going to be garbage.

I just did not enjoy this. Cannot think of a situation or mood where I’d be like, “Hell yeah…let’s put on some The Dreaming by Kate Bush.” I’m at a 1.5 was gonna round up because of influence, the one of the high squeals came on in Suspended In Gaffa….thats a 1 son.

The only thing memorable about this is the album cover.

This is objectively a terrible sounding album. I had hope for one song but then it quickly turned into a mess. Idk who pissed Kate off and drove her to make this horrendous album but they should be put in prison or stoned to death for their crimes against humanity.

Really repetitive, her voice gives me the creeps, and many of the songs have annoying background singing. Best song: Night Of The Swallow

High pitched shrieking, and over use of the sound affects cupboard. Did I hear an oompah band in there too? All nonsensical musical theatre.

That “musicians such as Björk … have cited The Dreaming as one of their favourite albums” told me everything I needed to know about this album, and yet I somehow was still surprised at how awful it was.

Couldn't finish, I'd like to listen to other albums of hers though.

What. In. The. Hell.

Some experiments shouldn’t see the light of day. This was one of them.

Not good

I haven't liked any of the Kate Bush albums, and I think this one might be my least favorite. It's to weird, her voice annoys me to no end, and I just don't like any of the music or production. This is the epitome of "not for me"

like if tom waits was a girl. bad circus music and mixed like shit

Not for me crap

God this was awful.

What the fuck is THIS

Not for me.

Yeah, this is not the album for me. I'm not sure what I just listened to, but please make it stop

Ei varmasti ollut tälle mikään ihanteellinen kuunteluhetki, mutta silti. Huhhhu mikä työmaa.

3rd Kate Bush Album in 10 days - I couldn't finish this one. This is also the earliest album out of the 3 so maybe it's just her earlier work I dislike.

Fav: Night Of The Swallow Least Fav: Houdini

This is soo bad. 0.5 stars.

I don't get it. Like truly. It's screechy and weird and unpleasant.

too much baby talk!

horror movie scene change music

People wtf?!! The third KB album and it sucks just like the other two. Maybe if she wasn’t experimenting in the 80’s she would have achieved something. But I mean. Cmon!

Yikes. Maybe I'm a cretin who only likes music when it is played using traditional instruments like the guitar, the piano, and the drums, and not when it sounds like a cross between a science experiment and a witch's incantation. Did not like this one at all, and found myself scrunching my face up in confusion or disgust at multiple times.

I’m only 3 songs in and this just sucks. Update: All done, and yeah, the whole thing sucks.

Not a fan.

if i only could i'd make a deal with god and i'd get him to turn off this album

Normally I like weird and experimental stuff. But this was… I don’t even know. Nothing struck me or stuck with me at all, and there were times I audibly went ‘Oh no’. Not her best

Music for people who don’t like music

Didn’t love it. I bet she was an influence for Fiona Apple

What kind of alien abduction experiment is this.

I think I've pretty thoroughly proven throughout this exercise that I do not need to have a traditionally great singing voice to appreciate the music. However, if your singing voice sounds like it's trying to be bad on purpose, I have almost no time for you. Kate, you're a singer-songwriter, for crying out loud. Can you try not using your Bene Gesserit voice on half the songs?

The Racket, more like

Ehh, just not good. A strange album with some real random vocal choices. 1/5 won’t listen again

Fiquei com a impressão que se tratava de uma tentativa, frutada, de soar como gótica.

Just horrible

Rather butt chug

I made it through 2 songs before I had to call it. Not for me!

I couldn't even listen to it. Yuck.

I love Kate Bush. And I'm no johnny-come-lately fan who discovered her because of Netflix's Stranger Things. I've loved her since the 80s. But this record...I just can't. It feels very self-consciously art-rock. Her best is still The Kick Inside, and that album better have made this list. Still love ya, Kate!

Kate Bush's vocals and song construction feel carnivalish to me. I imagine dancing oompahloompahs and theatrical, bare-breasted muses quirkily bouncing across a stage in a circus tent.

Wow. Some serious wailing on this one. Pish.

Dreadful

On the previous Kate Bush album I said: "not for me". For this one I can say _definitely_ not for me!

Regarded as one of Kate Bush’s more eclectic albums, “The Dreaming” is strange and avant garde. Totally 80’s but weird and screechy.

Well it wasn't boring, so that's something. Just wasn't pleasant to listen to, at all.

Do not like at all. Couldn’t even get through the second song.

Very not my style.

NO, why is there a song that sounds like dog noises??

Awful. Sounds like yoko on crack.

i'd rather listen to pink friday 2 or skibidi toilet for 12 hours this shit is so ass im crying😭😭😭 idk give it a chance tho this is just not for me❤

strange, and not in a good way.

Listened on subway in NYC. Not great. 1.4

This is some of the most ass music I’ve ever heard. The 80s truly were a low point for society.

This was horrible. Like a really bad knock of of the Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack.

Don’t grab me. Not a huge fan of this one.

I consider falsetto a technique sparingly as a dramatic effect because it is not a pretty sound... Kate Bush just hangs on it. I cringe every time she goes into scream mode and not in the modern slang sense. actual closed eyes, contorted face cringe in the traditional sense. If you exclude the annoying hi-pitched screams the rest of the album is your classic "weird for the sake of being weird" art pop. The most bearable song was night of the swallow but you can almost hear her shaking from holding back screaming in your ear at the chorus.

Ugh, this was nearly unlistenable. I enjoyed the last KB album, but this album was just irritating. The falsetto's the vocal bouncing paired against the boring music set this up for a giant fail. I might as well listen to Tori Amos.

There are three Kate Bush albums on the list. There don’t need to be. “The Dreaming” has “often characterised as her most uncommercial and experimental release,” and to that I would add “almost unlistenable.” There are some hints of Bush’s talent here, but they are overwhelmed by too many head-scratching moments. Artist should absolutely experiment. But not all of those experiments should leave the studio. I laughed out loud at the ridiculousness of so many parts of “The Dreaming.” NPR made a list of The 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women from a reader’s poll. The 1001 has women underrepresented, but Kate Bush’s three entries isn’t the problem. Somehow “Dreaming” made the NPR list, at #24. 🤷‍♂️. But ahead of it, and not on the 1001, are: Beyoncé - “Lemonade” Adele - “21” (was on but was taken off) Tori Amos - “Boys for Pele” Taylor Swift - “Reputation” (ok I don’t agree with this one) Then after 24, but also more deserving, are: Melissa Etheridge - “Yes I Am” Neko Case - “Fox Confessor Brings the Flood” Fiona Apple - “The Idler Wheel…” …and on, and on… Adele should have stayed on the list. Swift I could take or leave personally, but she probably deserves more on the list for her popularity and cultural impact. “Fox Confessor” is brilliant, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, and I’d love to see it on the list. But it’s Tori Amos and Fiona Apple that are most directly deserving of one Bush’s three spots. Apple’s “Idler Wheel” and “Fetch the Bolt Cutters” are experimental, like “The Dreaming,” but I think are more listenable (though I’m sure all won’t agree). Amos doesn’t get enough credit for her body of work and the many artists she inspired. Many women are deserving of one of Bush’s three spots, but I’d give it to “Boys for Pele.”

Actual dogshit

The beat? ass. The flow? Ass. The lyrics? Don’t fucking no (ass) this album makes me want to kill my whole family. A disgrace to the album that came before this. Not a good look for the women community.

I did not think it was possible for an album to suck this bad yet here we are. I genuinely wanted to stop listening to this album about 10 seconds in. It sounds like something theater kids would listen to.

Probably the worst album yet. Experimental pop punk is not for me.

Kate Bush doing a Bert The Chimney Sweep. A load of absolute balls.

A little too odd for me

Her voice is awful

What an interesting, creative, quite talented... absolutely unlistenable drivel? I rated two other Kate Bush albums we got so far 3 and 4 stars. So I'm not a great fan of the rest of her work, but I found it at least very listenable. This one was bordering on torture though.

1. zat in your lap - 0 2. there goez a tenner - 1 3. pull out the pin - 0 4. zuzpended in gaffa - 0 5. leave it open - 0 6. the dreaming - 0 7. night of the zuuallouu - 0 8. all the love - 0 9. houdini - 1 10. get out of my houze - 0 11.

Just horrible

Fucking atrocious.

You can tell she’s a good musician but this album was a little strange and all over the place. It didn’t really have an 80s feel about it and sounds like a weird B musical or film soundtrack. Have to say I didn’t enjoy this one very much. It almost became unbearable to listen to at some points.

0/10, 0%

I get that she's experimental and unique but I really struggle with this.

Nope, she is not my cup o 🍵

Absolutely fucking dreadful again, just like everything she's ever touched.

Meh. Almost fell asleep listening to this.

Mijn hemel is dit voor rond een vuurtje de regengoden oproepen

Really a struggle for me to get through this one. Not my taste.

Kate Bush has to be one of the most overrated artists ever, she has maybe 2 good songs?

Nah. Made me want to punch music right in the dick.

horrific nonsense whispering and overall just strange music.

I couldn't get through it. This album was disgusting. You can be yourself Kate Bush but I don't want any part of it.

I think this is album I 100% do not “get” but either way I thought it was trash.

this definitely deserves its place on the 1001 albums list because its fucking batshit mental. i find her popularity as confusing as i do for the popularity bestowed on Prince. i just don't get it.

Pretty awful. First exposure to older Kate Bush. Hopefully my last as well. 1/5

she kinda sucks

??? maybe it is something you need to acquired a taste for, but life is too short for this. Never heard this before and I'm really fine with never, ever hearing any of this again.

Holy fuck my ears are bleeding in the "The Dreaming" song. Please make it stop. This album is fucked on my rating. On the last song, still so bad. So glad it's almost over. this shit is getting a 1 star from me

Very busy with a lot of random noises and talking Sounds like it is from a musical It's like a PG version of that Suicide album

This might be the weirdest fucking album I’ve ever heard and not in a good way. It’s like trying to be weird for the sake of being weird. I don’t even think I can respect the experimental aspects of it. Not a fan.

I *really* dont like the nonsense of this album, I dont know if theres some deeper meaning that I have to delve into, since she is regarded as such an icon, but I cant emphasise how much it seemed like gibberish

One of the most obnoxious things I've heard in recent memory.

I’ve never understood why people like Kate Bush. I mean, “running up the hill” is solid, made all the better by Stranger Things but this was not good.

Bjork on coke. This is one experiment that doesn’t work for me.

When will we all admit that Kate Bush albums are rubbish?

Don’t like Kate Bush

What a terrible day to have ears

She had a couple of songs I didn't mind but this album is awful. By trying for interesting effect instead of just singing she has created a complete mess.

A truly weird and awful album. Songs had to be skipped.

Endnervig.

Seems like no one ever told Kate no, and that's great for feminism but terrible for my ears. This was going to be a 2 until the last track which is literally Bush screaming like a banshee while a man screams HEEE-HAWWWWWW like a donkey for 5 minutes

MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP

Not a fan of Kate Bush’s music or this album. Not one I’d ever really return to but not a fan of any of her other stuff either

Enjoyed: no Listens: 2 Just not my vibe I can see why someone else could find something in it. The voice is very eccentric, complimenting the music beautifully, it's more just annoying to me

On a first listen, I'm really not a fan of the sound direction here. Apparently this is Bush's most eccentric album, so I might be missing something.

Not for me. Some tracks put me in mind of Chas and Dave

Cue nervous laughter

Cant stand kate bush

This suc...was not for me so hard.

NoT my vibe

Can't listen to this shit

I do not like Kate Bush.

I hate her voice so much. The screeching made me want to puncture my eardrums. Otherwise I probably would have liked this at least a little. But yeah, my first one star, and I don't know if my eardrums will ever recover.

Borderline unlistenable. 1

Genuinely hated it... Was annoyed almost the entire time.

Houdini and Get Out Of My House were listenable. Apart from that, utter rubbish. Another 1001 albums bomb. Maybe there aren't 1001 albums you should hear. Or, maybe some are here just to show us how bad music can be.

wtf is this 1/5

Nothing like screeching carnival music!

Trying everything until something sticks? Nothing did though

sucked back then and still does

Sorry Kate. Not for me.

I thought this would be a good opportunity to understand the cult of Kate Bush. It was and I don't. Weird, scary and unenjoyable.

Different sound but didn’t like

Love Kate normally but hated this.

Very different sounding voice. She iPad a lot of skill. I was not a fan of the album. On the cover it was interesting because she looks like my niece.

This album has a combination of some of my most hated musical aspects. The canned synths sound horrible, the vocals are shrill and confusingly distorted, her accent is disgusting, the tunes are annoying, and the maximalist production makes sure that everything I hate comes to the forefront. Borderline unlistenable and certainly headache-inducing. 2

Absolute garbage. 1/10. Horrible singing, trash songs.

Definitely not a fan. This was a tough listen.

She is the coolest! I really want to like her but she's too avant-garde for me I think!

Wow, I just really hate this so much. It sounds like experimental music, I guess, and I just really hate it.

Couldn't finish 2 songs. Not for me

Puh, gar nicht mal so gut, stellenweise geradezu unerträglich. Dieses Album will nie so richtig in die Gänge kommen und zieht sich wie Kaugummi. Und David Gilmour durfte…nur mitsingen. Es gibt offenbar Musiker, von denen ich gezielt 2-3 Songs gut finde, und Kate Bush ist offensichtlich eine davon. Ist eigentlich eine Platte von Phil Collins in dieser Liste? Ach, nein? Ich bin überrascht.

About equally entertaining as it was abrasive.

Different from anything I've ever heard. Lack of instruments in my opinion, sounds like a lot of keyboards/piano and maybe synthesizers (and of course drums). Some songs sound kind of like modern day pop. Very experimental sound, many uses of he voice. No recognizable or memorable lyrics. Probably wouldn't listen to again. Album Rating: 4/10 , Highlights: Swallow of the Night, Pull the Pin.

Britisk folk pop/rock, modigt, frembrusende, vokal
