Pure turd
Twee camp 80's rubbish
First track Karma Chameleon is a classic but thinking about it, it's not actually a good track, it's just well known. Other than that there was nothing to write home about. Maybe some Arctic Monkeys Old Yellow Bricks inspiration from Miss Me Blind. Really not my bag at all though, not sure if it's a 1 or a 2.
Karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma karma
No thank you. This was a very boring and uninspiring couple of listens
This is garbage. It is just musically bad. Least favorite tracks: Black Money, Mister Man, Man-Shake
No i klasyka gatunku, wyspiarski pop, colour by numbers to drugi studyjny krazek synth popowo soulowej bandy prosto z londonu, rok 83 wiec nateznie synthow przkroczylo wszelkie normy sluchalnosci, a scena byla zalewana grupami, ktore pojawialy i znikaly po wydaniu tego czegos co udalo sie sprzedac i zostac zapamietanym na jednym kawalku, w przypadku kulturalnego klubu jest to juz pierwszy utwor z tej plyty, czyli karma chameleon ktory jest stalym bywalcem w szlagierach radiowych wspominajacych lepsze czasy, no i jeszcze mozna kojarzyc z tego widelo gdzie chlop, czyli pan wokalista bandy Boy George przebral sie za babe kolorowom, no nie wyczymie, chociaz jest on glownym wokalem, to jego glos z pewnoscia nie jest czyms co zostaje w pamieci po odsluchu tej plyty, bo jest to mialkie niebieskookie zawodzenie ktorego czlowiek zawsze ma dosc po 5 minutach odsluchu, wiec wypadaloby ze po pierwszym traku bezpiecznie mozna skonczyc odsluch plyty, bo na kolejnych dziewieciu kawalkach nic ciekawszego niz na pierwszym nie sposob uraczyc, ale czlowiek sie przekonuje tylko, ze wokalnie panie bakujace zrobily o wiele lepsza robote niz pan george, pisze panie, bo glownie zenskie glosy slysze z tylu, ale w kontrybucji albumowej cala banda jest zaznaczona jako bakujacy wokal, sporo takze sesyjnych muzykow na wszelakich fletach, harmonijkach, trumpetach, bo material jest przepakowany kaczowatymi melodiami wypchanymi do granic mozliwosci sluchalnosci, ale cale szczescie krotka plyta, bo zaledwie 38 minut liczy podstawowe 10 kawalkow, z ktorych na plejke leci wspomniany na poczatku one hit wonder bandy
This is so 80's sounding it is ridiculous. Hard to believe anyone ever took this seriously or thought this was was a critically important album. So cheesy.
Rubbish
Did not enjoy this at all. Hated the production.
Never properly listened to Culture Club. Mainly because Karma Chameleon is an utterly wank song and also Boy George is a piece of shit who handcuffed a rent boy to a radiator and beat the shit out of him. For these reasons, I didn’t go into this album with a lot of optimism but I thought maybe the rest of the album will be a bit different from Karma Chameleon. It was not and the songs that were different were worse. I’m a huge fan of flagrantly gay 80s cheese pop but this was just too much for me. Church of the Poison Mind is the only half decent tune on it but the war crime against harmonica just ruins it for me. Willing to bet a large amount of money that Boy George will end up on a washed up celebrity show like I’m A Celebrity or Big Brother at some point in the future, the absolute wetty.
I’ve had ample reggae influenced British pop bands from the 80/70’s to rate lately, and I can’t say I’ve found one more enjoyable than any of others. Their all kinda ho hum. I mean you’d have to been living under a rock for the last 40yrs not to have heard of Culture Club. The same could be said for the first track on this album. But I doubt many peeps would have sat and listened to a whole album of theirs. I can save those people the time to do something more enjoyable though. As predicted when I found I’d been given this album to review today...I was already looking forward to tomorrow’s. 1 Star!
Solo la de.karma chameleon esta buena
Beetje saai album, niet echt lekker
Some good queer fun, but sounds very dated. I can't stand Karma Chameleon. Most of the other tracks are pretty forgettable.
muuuito anos 80 :(
Horrible
