Tedious at best. Some interesting bass lines being thrown around by all in all not much here that would make someone want to hear this again. Barely worth the first listen.
I found this unlistenable. Just seemingly random noise and annoying shouting. I don't like punk much anyway but at least The Clash or The Ramones had some material resembling music
This album is dog shit. The title is a lie and the cover is dumb. Worst.band.name.ever. 1001 album worthy: no - 91/168
Complete opposite feeling. This sucked
1.5
First 3 songs were annoying with Not Great Man almost making me turn the album off. Damaged goods was almost good then the rest was bad. I liked no song on this whole album. The whole thing sounds like a teenagers first try at making music. 0/10
Just overall a terrible album. There was not a single song on the album that could be considered decent. I wish the vocalist never picked up a mic.
Not for me
Pfffff... wat duren die flutplaten van rond 1980 toch lang. Veertig minuten zeurgezang en jengelgitaar, veertig minuten van mijn leven die ik nooit meer terug krijg. Als dit nou het eerste album in het genre was dat ik te horen kreeg, was het misschien nog interessant geweest, maar nu ben ik er wel klaar mee. 'Entertainment' wil ik het niet noemen, zogezegd...
Nope
This sucks, also hate when they add distortion but with no sustain to just sound like pure noise or something breaking. (Idk how to describe this sound)
Awful…the only positive was that I got to watch a sexy man build flat pack furniture whilst listening.
I'm not a punk I guess
Hipoteticamente se trata de um disco de punk festeiro. O instrumental parece tentar desenvolver o clima animado, mas na sequência dos vocais deixa tudo aborrecido.
More forgettable punk rock
Not my favorite, some interesting stuff. I’m betting pretty innovative in ‘79, just not vibing with me. I think it’s the vocals. Loved the first songs opening and was excited for the album till the vocals came in
Not for me
I have a feeling the guy who made this book was british. I can see how theyre influential I guess? Talk singing, we like that?
Pretty basic and Pretty boring. Still really not my style of music. There were a few I enjoyed on here but overall it didn't click with me. Favorites were Contract and Damaged Goods
if stress was an album and not a feeling
Really
Doesn't help that I have a headache right now, but this sounds like someone using an angle grinder on concrete.
Punk but with better bass. I liked the songs that had a hard bass line, but a lot of the songs were the whiny, repetitive punk voices. Not my fave. Listen again: no Purchase for my collection: no Favourite Song: love like anthrax
Fuck post punk
Did nothing.
p440. 1979. 1 star. Unpleasant proto Franz Ferdinand, but without the talent or tunes. Not much to like here.
No
Nope.
I don’t like post-punk. I’ve tried to listen to this album multiple times over the years and never got what people like about it. Tried again and still don’t. So harsh and discordant. Not my kind of thing I guess.
Not for me
Didn't like it
Nothing too exciting.
To borrow from Gang of Four's own lyrics, this album gives me migraine. Rating: 1.5/5 Playlist track: Damaged Goods Date listened: 09/03/23
It's just not for me. I know they are influential, so maybe it is just a failing in myself. I am a fan of the most of the artists that claim GO4 as an influence though. This rating is not saying I think they are a one, I was just happy there album as over.
How is this consider to be music? I got five songs deep and gave up.
Didn’t enjoy this at all.
As with the majority of punk music (everything other than Clash?), this is a bland and rather annoying to listen to album. The best thing about punk music is the world moving on.
Not for me.
Disjointed jangling with no traces of actual songs or melodies.
This music is not for me. Sorry.
Noisy in a bad way. I'd rather listen to Devo. There is more melody and dorkiness there. I kind of suffered through this. I'm just not interested in taking a deeper dive after listening through this record. The guitars are really hard to handle. Sounds like a strat on the bridge pickup through a rat pedal. That should be against the law. HA. The bass holds it down though. Gotta hand it to that guy/gal.
Didn’t work for me
No es mi estilo. Vamos que no me ha gustado una mierda
not a fan
Meh it was ok.
