Fear Of Music

Love the talking heads! This was a great album!

A few songs are good, too, but I think the album is mainly overrated, especially when I look at the 4.00 rating on Rate Your Music.

Listening experience was a little disjointed due to a bad internet connection. No particular complaints or compliments about the music itself. A little sad to have a typo in previous journal entry

говнище корявые инструменталы дурацкая манера исполнения неприятно слушать не мелодично 2

so many different genres, a little folk, a little punk, jazz, rock. so many different things going on in one album, love!!

Tältä levyltä ei löydy Talking Headsin isoimpia hittejä, mutta tykkäsin tästä silti.

This album cured my melophobia.

This is my third Talking Heads album and still not sure what to think of them. This one seemed a bit weird for me and not something I’d choose to listen to. Still, it had some decent tracks. I think I would need to spend some more time with it to give it fair judgment.

It’s got the classic talking heads groove but I just couldn’t get into it like some of the others

Not my favourite THs album, but still odd, weird and using rhythms and sounds that are not new wave. I prefer the debut and the one after this.

Not as good as Stop making sense

Very good stuff with Cities and Life During Wartime two of my absolute favourites they ever put out, but not as strong as their two opening albums.

great music, the tracks kinda all sound the same to me. nevertheless amazing to listen to during a long drive

It's alright.

So good.

Cocaine-fuelled paranoia and claustrophobia. Truly some of their best and most experimental work, though, on balance, I prefer their next two albums

This album is one of the best by them, though I think its due to it being a great collection of good songs. its very consistent in quality throughout. other albums have more "hits" but that's not the point. There are at least a few songs people would recognize that were played over media clips, or even as background music. Still these songs beg for repeat listens, and or at least a reason to delve further into their albums. Biggest Hit - I Zimbra Biggest Miss (if I had to choose) - Drugs Hidden Gem - Animals

Buen album

skulle inte lyssna på själv men ok

It was fine

Not my favorite Talking Heads record, but strong singles including Life During Wartime and I Zimbra. Makes me want to watch Stop Making Sense again.

A band easy to admire but hard to love. Like Bowie once you get past the non singing affection is there really that much there. This is an early irritating offering. One for the musos and the chin scratchers

I think this is the true Talking Heads Experimental Masterpiece. Every avenue they explore before and after is evident here and the seedlings seem just as successful or more successful in the later explorations that they sprout. I know Remain In Light is thought to be the best but I disagree this is the album I always go back to and find each song even the lesser known ones to be fascinating.

Talking heads, such an iconic sound. I really appreciate some Byrne from time to time, but this album as a whole is a little too much for me.

Much like the other Talking Heads album I've listened to I did not enjoy this one. It's fine as background music I guess but I just do not vibe with this band.

15 songs I don't even know what to think of this album. It wasn't bad, but gun to my head I wouldn't be able to hum a single song after an hour had passed. So, because of that, I cannot rate it any higher than a 3.

Hey! That's pretty good!

Ahh!!

has a great edge to it even as it feels like a slice of ecstasy

Loved it

gosssto disso

Gold

I zimbra, mind, heaven, memories can’t wait, and life during wartime are among Talking Heads’ best songs. Some of the others feel a bit unfinished, but I think they were going for a postmodern, experimental feel and they certainly achieved that without making anything a challenging listening experience.

i'd never listened talking heads before except psycho killer. i didn't get bored or tired listening to this album and it was not bad but i guess i won't consider listening to it again. i saved only one song, heaven, it was not great but okay.

гаварящи бошке прикольно

Love them and this. I added “Heaven” to my playlist.

This is my third Talking Heads album I've gotten on the list and is actually my favorite by quite a bit. Definitely the most interesting both musically and lyrically.

4/5

An album that really picks up 4 songs in, but it REALLY picks up. The first 3 songs are fine, but nothing special, really. “Mind” is pretty fucking great, but… I don’t know, I still don’t love where it’s sequenced. “Cities,” though… it’s a fucking barn-burner. So is “Life During Wartime.” It’s a 1-2 punch of actually awesome songs after a pretty disappointing start. “Cities” in particular really spoke to me, talking about the craziness of cities, talking about the circumstance of them, and the album as a whole has some outstanding lyrics (“burned all my notebooks… what good are notebooks!?”) on it. “Memories Can’t Wait” is another great one, with more great lyrics, and an awesome vocal performance from Byrne. I didn’t expect to find a commercial sounding song on here, that being “Heaven,” but that was pretty awesome too! I can’t actually tell if “Animals” is a metaphor or not, but that’s not the point because at the end of the day it’s fucking awesome. That’s kind of this whole album, actually. There’s stuff I like, there’s stuff I question, and the sequencing is weird, but at the end of the day it’s fucking awesome. 9.1/10

the bass work is exquisite. great texture in the arrangements and timbre, fantastic mixing. use of voice as an instrument continues to be impressive.

Very disappointing first taste of the Talking Heads. I've heard a lot about the iconic band and have been recommended them before, but I found myself really grasping for anything palatable passed the singles. I Zimbra, Life During Wartime, and Drugs were the only songs on here that held my attention. I don't find myself drawn to David Byrne's vocals, and I don't think the musical performance brings much to the table. I'll try them again at a later date.

A tense Talking Heads record that sounds like a late-night walk in the East Village of NYC after too much cocaine and disco. Every possible subject is threatening and yet danceable. You're looking over your shoulder, it's hard to breathe, will you make it to your apartment door? Eno's production is assured and clear — making the record sound more ominous than if it were chaotic and cluttered. Each element has its appropriate weight, and you can feel it. Closer now, everything's closing in now, with your keys fumbling as the shadows of animals, paper, electric guitars are cast and buildings/streets/lights from the city itself are all out to get you.

Maybe not my fav Talking Heads album, but still filled with such good music. I think repeated listens of this will endear it to me further and might even raise it to a 5.

How wild must have it been in 1979 to hear this nervous jittery new wave. The record is like its singer: it’s all limbs. Limbs that appear to have more knobby joints than they should. Hearing this again makes me so happy that David Byrne is alive and jittering; and how great many songs on this record sounded during his 2026 Coachella performance. It’s music that just gets better with time, and that’s so very far above a tremendous lot of pop music from 1979.

Ok I was liking this but they’re a little outside my range

Torn on this one but I think I needed more so it’s gonna stay as a 3. Super interesting though.

I will never get tired of listening to Talking Heads. Their influence always seems to be everywhere, no matter what era of music you listen to. Even Phil Collins recently said he wishes he was David Byrne (or words to that effect). This is a record of wonderfully artful, jarring, angular, flowing, rhythmic, pop that's (evidently) really hard to describe. Byrne remains to this day a uniquely intoxicating performer. Much as I love them, this isn't my favourite of theirs - it does start to feel a bit samey - but it's a joy nonetheless.

In many ways I love Talking Heads - always original, very much ploughing their own furrow and taking onboard an eclectic range of influences. While I take my hat off to this it is occasionally a slight oddity or quirkiness that grates slightly.. but that is minimal on this off-centre piece of pop

Feels challenging, but is surprisingly listenable.

Another Talking Heads album. Another up and down experience.

One of their best, but better was to come.

It's more of a 2.5, but I'll bump it to a 3. I don't understand the appeal of the Talking Heads...

There's something that I don't get about this. I appreciate it but don't necessarily like it. I'll probably come to really like it eventually though. Will need to listen a bunch of times to get there though

Fear of reviewing this album. Talking Heads are one of my top favorite bands ever, but his album isn't. I understand it was groundbreaking at the time to incorporate Brian Eno behind the boards and made it much more moodier and filled all the spaces with ambient sounds which sound great in principle, but at the same time, they had assembled the greatest live lineup of their band ever with Andrew Below, Steve Scales and Bernie Worrell, and the explosive dynamism of their live shoes is bogged down by the ambient soundscapes they're trying to keep the album within. I Zimbra is one of my favorite songs ever, Life During Wartime is one of their best live songs, and Cities is such a great song, but the album version is so muted and incomplete. The rest of the songs are mostly memorable like Mind, Air, Memories and Heaven, but it doesn't really buyou the album to the heights of the rest of their early discography.

8/10 Talking Heads are a band that traversed a number of styles and genres within their music, from funk to pop, to new wave, while adding generous sprinklings of avant garde, artsy elements to their sound. This album is no exception to that, with a number of excellent funk and almost afrobeat grooves, some excellent hooky pop melodies and some more weird, sound-design heavy moments. I think people often (as with many bands) focus on the lead singer and David Byrne is certainly a character. He’s a bit like a more consistently weird, American (yes, he was born in the UK, he’s still American) David Bowie, and it appears that both Bowie and the Talking Heads took inspiration from one another. It probably doesn’t hurt that frequent Bowie collaborator Brian Eno also produced this album. Byrne lends the band a slightly schizophrenic edge, switching between more traditional pop-rock delivery to almost psychotic moments or performances, probably best exemplified by closer Drugs. But focusing on Byrne could easily make one miss the incredible tightness of the rest of the band. Jerry Harrison, Tina Weymouth and Chris Franz are one hell of a unit, laying down infectious grooves and punchy rhythms at the drop of a hat, while also seamlessly drifting into the more dissonant and avant garde moments on the record. While Byrne is the weird cherry, the rest of the band is the oddly flavoured cake that he rests on, and if the recipe for that cake was even slightly off, the whole thing would probably just taste like shit. Luckily, it all comes together well and the band bob and weave their way through an evolving cycle of interesting and engaging songs that indulge in weirdness while largely maintaining enough focus that the record feels tonally consistent and has a strong through line that keeps the listener on the hook. There are some moments when things become a touch repetitive or lull a little too much, but with the Talking Heads, you always know something interesting and high-quality is just around the corner. I Zimbra - There’s a bit of a stripped back Fela Kuti edge to this, and you can definitely hear the rhythmic feel that went into side-project Tom Tom Club too. It’s a cool, sparse and engaging groove that manages to blend funk with a more new-wave sound palette. A good start. Mind - David Byrne very much has the feel of an American David Bowie. It’s partly his vocal delivery, which is very Bowie-esque here. The track is fairly stripped back and restrained, but carries a solid groove and the overlapping rhythms of the different parts create a shimmering, drifting movement to it. There’s a bit of a tonal development late on when the distorted guitar comes in, which is pretty good. Paper - This is a bit more front-foot with the groove than the last couple of tracks and there’s a nice switch between busy sections and slightly more rhythmically drawn out ones. There’s nothing too complex about the track, but it has a good groove and vibe to it. It threads the Talking Heads line pretty well, being danceable and funky while also having an edge of avant garde weirdness to it. Cities - The groove gets a bit more frantic now and is very insistent. There’s a much thicker blend of instrumental layers here and it all comes together to create an irresistibly danceable song with some standout bass work. It is perhaps a touch one paced, and isn’t melodically that hooky, but it’s still a really nice bit of work. Life During Wartime - As if to respond to my last comment, this track is endlessly hooky. The synth tones sound quite dated, but if anything, that just kind of adds to the charm of it. As with the rest of the album, the groove is excellent and Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth are so deep in the pocket together that it’s no surprise they ended up married. This kind of thing is the sweet spot for Talking Heads for me: Funky and poppy with a sprinkling of weirdness. Lovely. Memories Can't Wait - The sound design on this is great. It’s cluttered and foreboding in a really effective way, with different instrumental lines sweeping in and out of the noise. There’s something quite disconcerting and creepy about it all, even in the melodic choices that Byrne makes with his vocal, which soars above that cluttered yet purposeful mix. Another solid track. Air - This opens up a bit more in the mix, but there’s still an element of the more reverb-heavy, slightly twisted core from the last track. The changes between sharp, staccato sections and the smoother sections is really nice and creates an interesting textural flow to the song. It’s got more of that slightly weird edge to it, particularly with some of the harmonic choices, but it all gels together really well into something that sounds very unique. Heaven - This is a hooky ballad with some really lovely melodic moments. The interplay between guitar and piano is beautiful, with Byrne’s vocal delivery being so emotive and pulling every bit of power out of a fairly simple but brilliant melody. The vibe of this is excellent, with a slightly dark undercurrent blended in to what is on the face of it, quite an uplifting melodic work. Animals - And we’re back to something with more of that front-foot funky groove, dusted with some more dissonant harmonic choices and a fairly avant garde vocal performance. It’s weird, but coherently and deliberately so. The underlying groove grounds the track, while the guitar and vocal try to pick it apart and drag it to pieces. The balance is excellent, as it would be easy to drag this too far in one direction, but they string it together well and pull it further into weird territory towards the end. Electric Guitar - The vibe of this is really good, but musically, it feels a bit more meandering and less grounded than the stronger work. Some of the sound design is really great, and that creepy edge is there again, but it feels like it drifts over the line into being a bit less focused and a touch too weird and repetitive for my taste. Drugs - We get a nice slow burn here, and the sound design is again lovely. The atmosphere and vive is both wide-open and somehow oppressive at the same time. It’s a creepy little number that’s very carefully balanced and laid out to keep pulling you along, pushing and pulling the instruments and effects in and out of focus in an inventive and evocative way. An excellent end to the album.

get scareddddd

Classic Talking Heads tones. Hasn’t aged real well, but it’s a fun listen. 3.3/5.0

Had the privilege to see David Byrne in concert recently and it was phenomenal. I’ve been to hundreds of shows but his was special and now ranked #1 with me. Fear of Music showcases the art and brilliance of The Talking Heads.

David Byrne is such a weirdo. I love this guy.

I’ve heard this before. This is apparently the first time they incorporated afrobeat and disco into their sound although I feel like they already had some of those elements to their music. They still expanded their sound here and it’s interesting to think of how weird this must have been when it was released considering its influence of so much of everything that followed. This might be considered new wave but they were among he original nyc punk scene and it’s still punk rock and it’s awesome.

I really struggled listening to this.

I’ve heard of the talking heads but never listened to an album. Love the slow open on I zimbra. Goes right into a really fast fun song. Awesome production, love the horns. Cool production, bullshit lyrics and vocals on mind. Aside from the chorus, u don’t mind it. Paper is interesting. Again good production, 0 substance to the lyrics. Another really cool slow build up to cities. What he’s saying is all true, but again there’s no substance to this song. Like is this album made for kids? Production is really cool tho. Really cool keys and guitar again on wartime. This one is much better songwriting. Memories can’t wait is fine, good not great. Better writing again in this one. Good guitar and keys on air, more of the same w the vocals. Just not much going on. He’s an is a lot better. Very normal song which was needed. Really nice piano. Don’t like animals. Interesting guitar and bass but don’t really like them to be honest. Elementary lyrics again. At least the album sticks to a theme, even if it’s kind of a shitty theme. Don’t mind electric guitar. Simple lyrics again but it’s actually pretty catchy. And the guitar is really good. Drugs is very interesting. I think the production is really cool. Just a little too slow with the vocals. Interesting feels about this k um. It has the elements of JAA but it has some really impressive elements production wise. Good production, lack luster vocals and lyrics. Comes out average. 2.4/5 stars.

I already love this one. Heaven is a tune. Some weird ones here tho

Excellent.

I just don't get Talking Heads. For me this music defines the idea of "it's there I guess".

alltid lika trevligt med pratglada huvuden :P

one of the most confusing bands to me. They suck so much but get so much universal praise

Wierd

very experimental

Pretty dissapointed in this one to be honest. Was excited to listen, having heard (and enjoyed) several random Talking Heads songs in the past, but this album was a little bit of a tough listen for me. The singing is deliberately abrasive at the best of times, but it can work well - most of this album was just annoying. I enjoyed "Heaven" and "Drugs", but that's about it.

It's not their best album, but it's still really fuckin' good.

I think this could probably be 4 stars for me with more listens.

Yeah these guys are good.

I liked this but it wads kind of unremarkable to me

Ohh the good stuff.

Random encounter with Brian Eno!

Although I appreciate its originality and contribution to music, I cannot say I enjoyed listening to this album.

Life During Waring is an epic song that never ages. The rest are good - some are too mellow or too similar.

It was alright, it has highs and lows. Overall pretty mid. Favorite track(s) Heaven

its aight, too calm too old, smn youd listen to while driving or while having a convo, not my vibe

New wave, post-punk, art rock, psychedelic funk.

Fun!

agitated, and propulsive

definitely not my style i zimbra - 2/5 mind - 3/5 paper - 3/5 cities - 3/5 life during wartime - 3/5 memories can't wait - 2/5 air - 4/5 heaven - 2/5 animals - 2/5 electric guitar - 2/5 drugs - 1/5 dancing for money - 1/5 life during wartime (alt) - 2/5 cities (alt) - 2/5 mind (alt) - 2/5 34/75 = /5

swagged out and full of grooves. how i like my post-punk

I'd obviously heard 'life during wartime', but this was my first time listening to the entire album. Steam of consciousness, oblique, storrytelling through inferrence and scene, solid guitar/drum/synth backing. Weird weird weird, but fun and with moments of brilliance and a couple of slogs.

First listen

Enjoyed this album a lot, I'm a big fan of David Byrne and his whacky vocals. Favourite track is life during wartime 4/5

This shit is boring asf

Pee po nachina, po koito jack sparrow bqga

Más los descubro y más me gustan. Para mí, el álbum va de más a menos y eso hace que no sea mi favorito pero posta nada lo hace un mal disco.

AAAA I LOVE THE TALKING HEADS AAAAAAA :D

No es un género que escuche usualmente, pero me sorprendió, un rock mas suave y ochentoso, siendo accesible para aquellos que no estan tan involucrados en el género. Definitivamente un album que no hubiese escuchado por mi cuenta pero ahora lo volveria a escuchar varias veces sin duda. Sorprendida

This didn't land like other Talking Heads releases. It's good though, maybe good enough for a revisit. Heard before ❌️ Listened this time ✅️ Revisit 🫳 ★★★☆☆ (6/10) Total reviewed : 338 Already owned : 76 Purchased : 16 To buy : 3 Nope : 243

Talking Heads is a band I’ve never loved. This album was okay. Standard “some tracks are better than others” and overall while I didn’t have any issues with it I also wasn’t enamored with anything I was hearing.

Great

Dober

Talking Heads – Fear of Music (1979) This was a decent listen, definitely carrying groovy and lowkey funky undertone, all while the band's post-punk evolution was fully on display. The rhythmic pocket and experimental nature of the arrangements really give the project a distinct identity. Looking at the tracklist, the clear standouts that made the cut are "I Zimbra," "Cities," "Life During Wartime," "Heaven," and "Animals." While the entire record maintains that tight, angular groove, these specific tracks represent the absolute highlights of the experience for me. It delivers exactly what it needs to for a very solid 4/5.

La verdad, fue una escucha sin pena ni gloria. Casi ni me di cuenta cuando terminó. Le doy 3 puntos (2 estrellas) sólo porque no es que no me gustó, pero tampoco me gustó.

Ok

Not my favorite Talking Heads album, but still great nonetheless

Boring

Definitely a distinctive band that should be checked out. Best described as art rock or post-punk. David Byrne but other great musicians (Tina Weymouth, Jerry Harrison and Tim Frantz). Really well produced (Brian Eno), still sounds current. The downtempo songs are too far out there for me.

Talking Heads continue brilliant run and begin what would follow. Smart, infectious, challenging music.

I’ve been listening to a lot of Talking Heads lately so as you can imagine, I was very happy when this album popped up. And oh man is this album great. Best songs on here are Memories Can’t Wait, Heaven, and Animals. I am definitely giving Fear Of Music 5 stars!

I get that Talking Heads were important, but I really dislike his voice

This isn’t just good — it’s outstanding. While listening I felt constantly engaged by how rhythmic and alive the album is. It moves beautifully between different emotions, going from anxious and sad to joyful and eccentric without missing a beat. The themes are diverse and clever, covering everything from personal paranoia to society and everyday madness. David Byrne is in absolute top form, as always. His restless energy and unique voice perfectly match the band’s tight, funky, and experimental sound. The whole record feels like Talking Heads fully hitting their creative peak — bold, danceable, strange, and deeply human all at once. Fear of Music is a brilliant album. Creative, rhythmic, and endlessly replayable. One of their very best.

One of their stronger albums. On the surface it seems strange and tackles real topics like war and drugs, yet Byrnes vocals make it funny to a degree. Standouts are life during wartime (stop making sense version is much better though), memories can’t wait, air and heaven.

Good stuff, I liked the center tracks (Life During Wartime-Memories Can't Wait-Air) best

I like the talking heads, but not this album

What I liked most about this album is the rhythm - that punk-funk choppiness layered with complex polyrhythms. There’s an angular groove throughout the album that’s incredibly satisfying to lock into. It stays consistent in that way from start to finish. That said, I can imagine this record being tough for some listeners. If you’re someone who prefers vocal-centric music, David Byrne’s delivery might feel challenging and off-putting. The intricate rhythms and unconventional musical textures could come across as strange, alienating and unsafe. But if you’re drawn to that funk-punk groove, you’ll likely find this album irresistible. It's not 100% my sort of thing, but I found it interesting, and the worst thing I think music can be is uninteresting.

Some songs were ok, some songs were mega off.

Nope, boring and weird

It's alright but I've never been super into the talking heads outside of their hits

Early childhood vibes

Talking Heads is one of the ultimate acquired tastes I need to develop. Like Steely Dan, I figure "if you listen, it will come" so just keep putting them on. I've seen David Byrne live but wish I'd seen them to get the full effect!

Ikke for meg nei.

Não conhecia nenhuma música do álbum, mas até é interessante

Dank as.

This whole album was a bunch of nothingness. Incredibly bland and repetitive instrumentals with horrible vocals that sounded like a drunk Elvis impersonator. Even though this album only had 11 songs, it was 40 minutes long. Which is way longer than it needed to be for the substance that it provided: nothing. Worst album I've listened to on this list so far.

7/10

This isn't their best album there are a couple of standout numbers. Always liked some of their songs but not their albums.

Might lowkey be my favorite Talking Heads album. Cities, Life During Wartime, Heaven... Plus all the lesser known gems like Mind and Drugs.

This is probably their best album outside of Stop Making Sense. I don’t think there’s a bad track on here, but there are definitely some major highlights like “Life During Wartime,” “Air,” and “Heaven.” “I Zimbra” is also a really fun way to kick the album off. This feels like a 4.5/5 album to me, so I’ll round it up.

Fantastic album, though not one I would want to listen to all the time.

The first in a three record run of Heads at the peak of their powers. Nice job by ol' sourpuss Brian Eno on this one.

Sorry harsh critic

Iconic.

"Life During Wartime" and "Heaven" are both all-time classics but this isn't one of the albums I'd select for this list. I'd hope to see something like "Speaking in Tongues" and/or the "Stop Making Sense" live album.

Like... I see what they're TRYING to do. And I know what they CAN do in the future. But are they doing any of that here? Not really. I can give credit to the production. Nice and tight. Maybe the band will do better on later albums (subtle foreshadowing)

NOT MY FAVORITE TALKING HEADS BUT NOT BAD AT ALL. Sorry about the all caps but I'm too tired to retype that line.

cover reminds me of the gym, music is more art than really listenable music

A pretty fun time. I didn't like everything here, especially the more zaney tracks, but it was produced in a really satisfying way with good soundstage and diversity among all the songs so I'll be coming back to a few of these for sure.

Weird mood

The lead singer's voice is unique and fun for one or two songs, but a whole album is a lot. DNF

Perfectly fine in every way

im not really into them tbh

Mid

Quirky. Sometimes quite good, sometimes not so good. Vocals are just odd and a bit off-putting but the music is quite catchy on some tracks. Favourite songs are Cities and Life During Wartime. 2.5/5.

I prefer More Songs About Food and Buildings

The first time I listened to this album, I was resting in my car on my lunch break, but I was too tired to process most of it. I started listening to it again on my drive home and finished it during the beginning of my shift the next day. I always love seeing the way Talking Heads bring a variety of different musical influences into their work, even if the end results don't always click with me; Fear of Music sees their usual new wave sound accented with more electronic and African sounds, alongside Byrne's captivatingly unhinged vocal melodies. I came into this album already knowing Life During Wartime and Heaven, though this might have been to the detriment of the album as a whole, as these two songs set a standard that I didn't feel the rest of the album reached. In comparison to the Talking Heads studio albums I've already heard, More Songs About Buildings and Food & Speaking in Tongues, Fear of Music seems to exhibit less diversity from song to song, with many of them feeling pretty similar to each other. This album is also missing some of the freewheeling, chaotic songwriting and lyricism that I love most about the band, and some songs feel a bit like they're just spinning their wheels rather than building to a payoff. Byrne also has a tendency on some of these songs to sing in really short phrases, rather than lean into the vocal rhythms that I typically enjoy from Talking Heads songs. At the end of the day, even with some of these reservations, this is still a Talking Heads album, so it's still quite good and enjoyable; it just doesn't reach the heights of their other projects for me. Highlights: Mind, Paper, Life During Wartime, Air, Heaven, Animals

3/5

Pretty good

It's fun, it's weird, it's David Byrne, what more can I ask for out of a Talking Heads album? It's not my favourite and not something I'm likely to come back to but I had fun listening to it.

mmmm

real nice, the lead singer has such a recognizable voice and tone :)

I was a bit disappointed with this one. I liked Talking Heads: 77 so I was looking forward to this, but everything after the first track was a bit over the top for me and I didn’t enjoy it. 2/5

There's a whole lot of nonsense about the Talking Heads that demands their music not to be taken seriously. But the musicianship and song craft is on point, so it's hard to hate. No depth to the songwriting. The title of each track is very literally about that thing, like Air for example. But it's lighthearted and fun and I could put this one in regular rotation for sure.

Too much art, not enough rock. I’m fine with Byrne and Eno making music mostly to entertain themselves but this is just not particularly successful as a piece of popular culture.

Recognisable but ultimately quite disappointing.

Lots of unfamiliar songs, all good.

> the Beatles

Talking Heads letting loose a little and its enjoyable

Good Heads, not great Heads.

So hard…TH>everybody, but TH>TH??!! On repeat, for sure.

Makes me wish I was old enough to go to the live show in 1979.

Ah Talking Heads, one of my favorites. Don’t know if this album in particular is one of my favorites from them but when they set bar that high, it’s difficult to constantly match it. However, solid 4 stars album!

Altijd leuk, veel bekende nummers

Annoying with its tippy tippy tip snare.

Rating:★★ Kinda forgettable. Liked Life During Wartime but otherwise a bit strange.

And you may ask yourself- who wrote this song. It was the Talking Heads. There were quite a few catchy parts, but very little caught my attention.

super nickel !

I can sympathize with those who call this as their favorite Heads album, but unfortunately the often muddled production really puts a wrench in things for me personally. Still has some absolute bangers though like I Zimbra/Life During Wartime/Memories Can't Wait. 8.5/10.

8.5/10 I really liked this! Which shouldn't be surprising for me by now, I'd put this album slightly below MSABAF because I really like the sound, but I didn't feel as many songs stood out here.

Nunca me gustó este grupo

One of the weaker Talking Heads albums in my opinion. Has a some good songs, but the music doesn't carry the same punch as, say, Remain in Light... Which queued up after this album and the vibe was so noticeably different.

Beautifully aggressive and psychedelic talking heads album they always blow it out of the water. I would talk about which songs I liked but that would be all of them.

What a weird band (good thing) Likes: I Zimbra; Cities; Life During Wartime; Air; Animals

Creo que ya escuche un disco de esta banda en este proceso. Sigue sin aparecer su canción que conozco. Es un rockcito tranka y medio psicodelico. Me gusta, no es la gran cosa 7/10.

Simply the best album of one of the best bands of all times...

I like the talking heads but i’m never really like “man i wanna listen to the talking heads”. i know that might be controversial but it’s true. in my mind their music is like good playlist filler.

tiene cositas de Bowie, se siente la influencia. Tema favorito: “Heaven”

Excellent, crazy, both melodic and in melodic, chilled and aggressive, like a tequila drunk on a special anniversary.

Its good, I prefer Little Creatures but nothing really beats the live version of Stop Making Sense with the ever growing suit jacket...... Crazy and creative in equal measure.

Really good album, some cracking songs on it

Their best, full of complete bangers

As always, this quirky punk rock leaves me a little cold

This album is from the future, made in 1979 Stone cold classic, everything about it makes you dance Favourite track: I Zimbra

Between a 3/4 for me, I love cities, life during wartime, and heaven but I don’t think it’s my favorite talking heads album

We haven't done this one? It's the TH album I go back to most often. "Memories Can't Wait" might be their greatest song - Zeppelin-heavy with a brilliant resolution in the chorus. "Life During Wartime" is forever salient as "Heaven" is moving. Love it.

Rhythmic, funky and weird in the best possible way, almost nothing sounds conventional on Fear of Music. “Mind” is gloriously odd and wobbly, “Cities” makes it impossible not to shake it, “Animals” sounds like the paranoid rantings of a lunatic, and the effect on Tina Weymouth’s bass on “Electric Guitar” makes it sound like a horn fashioned of some discarded scrap metal. I sometimes find it surprising that Talking Heads found such commercial success despite their many quirks until I realize you can’t help but dance to them.

4 talking heads LPs on the list but truthfully I'm not sure which I would cut.

Pre Listen: Talking Heads my beloved :D Notable Tracks: I Zimbra - What a jubilant way to start an album. Absolutely love it. Life During Wartime - My favorite track, already on my playlist before this listen. Heaven - The 'Nothing Ever Happens' theme song. Huge for those who subscribe to the nothing ever happens line of modern philosophy. Animals - My least favorite track. Even though it's my least favorite I still enjoy it. Drugs - Adding to my playlist. The lyrics are not my favorite, but the actual music behind it is so ethereal and smooth. I've overlooked this song too many times. Post Listen: I've already listened to this album on multiple occasions, and have been a Talking Heads fan for maybe a decade at this point, so I'm absolutely biased. I love David Byrne's goofy nonsensical lyrics that occasionally have something poetic hidden in the noise. The band has such a unique sound, with lopsided guitar and bass melodies pulled along by grooving synth, and kept in check by sleek drum-play. I love this band. All that said, I'm giving the album a 4/5. The Talking Heads have stronger albums in my opinion, and while this one is great, they've demonstrated better. I think my bias also plays a roll in how much I enjoy this album, if you're brand new to the Talking Heads, 80% of the songs on here probably sound like doo-doo to you.

so far not a lot of songs on this album have caught my attention but i really haven't heard much talking heads up until i listened to this album. paper is a pretty decent song and so is life during war time. memories cant wait is also another good one but I've noticed that a lot of these songs have riffs that go on for way too long and don't really do anything except the occasional solo. also not a big fan of David Byrne's vocals. maybe its just the album but he does not really try anything new with his vocals throughout the whole album. another thing i noticed is that his vocals are super hidden behind all the instruments but that's probably just the mix of whatever version i chose to listen to. I'm sure there are better mixes of this album out there.

I Zimbra: Really unique in a great way. Loved this one. Strong instrumentals. Mind: Funky; loved driving to work with this on the stereo. Biased because I was already excited to hear Byrne’s iconic voice which didn’t really get spotlighted in “I Zimbra” but he sounds as good as ever. Paper: Okay; weakest so far but it’s only ~2:30. Instrumentals were solid. Cities: Catchy: added to library. Really energetic and looking forward to driving home to this. Life During Wartime: Much like cities. Great stuff from Byrne here + “Pittsburgh, PA” Memories Can’t Wait + Air: Okay Heaven: Something a little more somber than the rest of the album; very charming. Drugs: Eh. It’s something different I guess.

Can really hear the bass line throughout the whole thing - nice bass. Overall the album feels creepy and weird. Not good morning vibes for when I played it. Read on Spotify you can put “fear of” before each of the song titles.. made it a bit more interesting but still weird. Wouldn’t voluntarily turn this on.

Super

Me.

This was pretty good

Du rock

Je connais déjà le groupe, c’est chouette mais faut reconnaître que l’album est assez calme

Bof

Another band I've meant to dive into and haven't yet, outside some hits (none from here). Great bass, fun vocals, good grooves. After the intro, everything felt like its own high point, with maybe Memories Can't Wait and Air (which at times vocally kinda reminds me of Sensor Ghost, a favorite local band) and Drugs being the highlights of the highlights

To be honest, I'm going into this biased. I'm not a fan of the few songs I do know. Not that they're bad, it's just too weird for me I think. Reading the description in Apple Music, & I think it helps paint a picture why I'm not really a fan. It's "funny." I really can't stand funny music. Musically, it's fun. I find myself tapping my foot. I'm just ignoring the singing subconsciously.

Classic

Not a bad album but I remember liking Talking Heads a lot more than this...

- Has some groovy beats - Cluttered instrumentals, but crispy - I like the piano in Heaven - Obviously hearing some similarities to Discipline by King Crimson, but this doesn't hit as hard as that one for some reason

Agree with Pat, feeling a little disillusioned and Frank’s points about this distance between the artist and audience is hard to shake. This one was very ENO, great sounds and grooves but a bit empty. Sort of unrelated, last weekend I was in New Orleans for Jazzfest and saw a LOT of live music. Many acts that were fine but saw Tedeschi Trucks for the first time and it blew my mind. Live acts either connect with you or they don’t, and when it hits and you’re locked in it’s so good. I think where I’m going is I’ll be eagerly looking for those shows and albums that I connect with and maybe spending less time with the ones that don’t. Feels obvious, but I do think I spend a fair amount of time trying to connect when it’s not there.

I expected to be more of a talking heads guys than I’ve turned out to be. Life is full of little disappointments

Very weird… I tried to follow the lyrics a little more closely than I usually do and I am left either laughing or slapped by serious content. The music itself is straightforward, rich with licks and weird Brian Eno sounds. Songs I liked: I Zimbra, Cities, Heaven, drugs

Feeling kind of disillusioned. Thought I liked the Heads more than I have liked the albums. I guess I just like the hits - or the Stop Making Sene live album/movie. Reluctant to make this point, but I think the Phish slow cover of Cities is better. The lyrics of the song are great, and the Heads version just feels too rushed.

Ok, 6/10.

I do like it, don't get me wrong. The grooves that are present are great, the production is awesome, makes everything sound tight. But I've been spoiled by Stop Making Sense. Talking Heads are at their best when they are jamming on a strong groove, and even the best songs here don't get the chance to do that for long enough. I love the song Life During Wartime. But I love the Stop Making Sense version ten times more. Same goes for the song Heaven, unfortunately, I love how it's really able to soar in the live version! I forgot how much I liked the song Memories Can't Wait. That one kicked ass. Talking Heads have always been in my orbit, but I've never really fallen for them completely. No individual album has enough strength to win me over. But I'm sure I'll get there eventually.

Fantastique! Memories can’t wait…

Je ne sais plus si j'ai déjà essayé d'écouter du Talking Heads. Je crois que oui, mais ça ne m'a pas laissé un souvenir indélébile, si c'est le cas. Je suppose que leur genre musical ne me parle pas (et oui, encore un album comme ça, on les collectionne !). C'est vrai que pour l'époque, cela dit, Fear of Music devait être franchement novateur et osé. J'aurais du mal à décrire cet album, faute de référence proche dans ma culture musicale. Je suppose qu'il y a des influences assez post-punk, mais en même temps, ça n'a rien à voir avec du Joy Division, qui a le mérite d'offrir une ambiance plombée qui te prend un peu aux tripes. C'est aussi un peu de la new wave ? Franchement, j'en sais rien, j'ai juste compris qu'il était important dans son genre. Je me rends sûrement pas compte parce que c'est pas mon genre de prédilection, mais en même temps, je vais pas me plonger pendant des jours dans des albums de new wave et de post-punk dont je me fiche éperdument pour saisir le génie de Talking Heads. C'est le défaut d'écouter les albums de la liste sans le livre ou sans explications externes. Les spécialistes du genre en parleront bien mieux que moi. Je sais qu'il est très populaire et que beaucoup de gens l'adorent, mais ça ne sera pas mon cas.

The Talking Heads went in a different direction in Fear of Music, likely influenced by their decision to bring Brian Eno on as a producer. You can hear Eno’s influence on the odd sound effects that punctuate many tracks on the album. This is not the first time The Talking Heads worked with Eno on their previous record, but the difference here is that Eno was working with them as the songs were being written. The songs emerged organically as the band jammed in the studio. My favorite parts were the segments where guitar was the driving force of the tunes. Jim Harrison created some amazing riffs on this record, sometimes with time signatures out of step with the other instruments. In stating my love of Harrison’s work, my intention is not to detract from the rest of the band. The bongos on the opening track are a clear indication that we can expect interesting percussion. And of course, Byrne’s vocals are outstanding. Speaking of Byrne, the lyrics and their delivery are just as insane as the music. I’m not sure it would have worked any other way. Perfect, really. The Talking Heads sound typically translates elements of post-rock and post-punk into dance tunes. Their previous records emphasized the latter, with songs that lean toward pop. On this record, they focus on the former, resulting in experimental sounds that seem fresh by today’s standards and seemed even more manic when the album was released. Yes, I’m old enough to remember, unfortunately. While this was not true when I first started listening to Talking Heads in the 80s, this album is my favorite in their discography today. We still have catchy hooks and funky rhythms, but it is the quirky experiments that provide the overall texture of this record. To my mind, this is more compelling. A masterpiece from one of the most important and influential bands of the 80s.

This album is so quirky and crazy. Their first two albums were good, but here's where they started to get weird in a good way.

So fucking goood

An easy listen, but felt pretty boring to me. If I gave it another listen, I'd probably like it more.

PEAK

Not the most accessible of Talking Heads’ work. It took me a long time to come around on this album, but it eventually grew to become one of my all time favourites. Half the time I never know what Byrne is singing about, but I appreciate the artistic vision, and the bold experimentation with sound. When the subject matter is less abstract, it results in some truly beautiful sentiment. Heaven for example. What could be more perfect than everyone at a party leaving at exactly the same time. The band only put one foot wrong with Electric Guitar. Things here are just a bit too ploddingly ’art school’ for me. Everything else is excellent, including the bonkers Animals. They really are setting a bad example. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Started strong and then collapsed a bit. I'm not a huge fan of Talking Heads in general but there were some bright spots and some terrible/corny songs. Still a decent album overall

Just okay

Not bad. 3/5. Some good, ageless music here. Some less so.

This album just kind of came and went. Sounds like talking heads, but not a notable album of theirs imo. 2*

Quite enjoyable, fairly easy listening. Not particularly memorable though. Wouldn't change the station, but wouldn't buy a ticket

This was pretty good, especially Paper and Heaven. Unfortunately this day kinda sucked because my favorite person at work quit and the vibes were awful. So maybe another day this would’ve been a 4. That’s life.

A fun, funky album. Some tracks sound African, some sound like Halloween music.

Не мое, скучный обычный рок

hmmm.. not for me but you gotta appreciate david byrne for doing his thing

i just like david byrne’s vibes, he sounds like the inside of my skull feels like when i’m in crisis. would listen again. fav: cities

Not the music I knew from Talking Heads, but an interesting sound. Not my favourite but I can see why people like it.

I promised myself I would listen to all the songs in all the daily albums from start to finish, but I failed here. I scrubbed through the last four songs: enough was enough by that point. The vocals are truly unbearable. The pretentious affectation he carries throughout the entirety of the album makes the whole project an earsore. The fear of music is truly the soundtrack of pseudo-intellectuals who get off on smelling their own farts.

This kinda music must be heard in England

Orginally I said 'Not my fav talking heads album.' and gave it a 3 star. But ive listened to several of the tracks now multiple time and the album in full now twice. This is where a single listen format sometimes falls short. Some album are growers - like some of my favour albums today. I liked them originally but grew to love them. Talking Heads are so experimental it can take time to ' get it'. Upgrade from a 3 to 4.

First few songs were alright, rest were weird as hell

All of Talking Heads best songs are spread out over several albums. This one has a handful of them. Wikipedia says it's often considered their best... and I tend to agree. This is where Talking Heads really started to hit their stride.

Decent, aged well

Entretenido pero un poco repetitivo

I have had a tough relationship with the Talking Heads. I never really got into them and even their big hits sat quietly with me. Not sure why. I don't hate on them or the genre, a sort of pop rock 70's to 80's sort of thing, it is simply that every time I hear them I am like "meh." Funny how musical tastes work.

I understand that talking heads acted as the precursor to 80s and 90s grungy rock, but honestly I never understood the hype behind them, and it continues with this album. As this album doesn't include much of their known hits like psycho killer or once in a lifetime, it feels like a mish mash of average tracks. Hope some of their other music is on this list so I can better understand the hype

David Byrne a trailblazer in 70s and still going strong

pretty cool but not my taste i guess

Rock não é um gênero alheio ao meu gosto pelo contrário boa parte dele molda meu gosto por ter herdado do meu pai mas eu achei um álbum ok não digeri muito bem ele e as que se destacaram foram para minha playlist de músicas curtidas no spotify e talvez em algum momento eu volte a ouvir casualmente mas confesso que as não gostei eu esqueci por completo músicas curtidas; Mind, Paper, Cities, Life During Wartime

I mean I've heard the Talking Heads before, and I've liked their music, but there was nothing in this album that grabbed me. It was really boring, actually.

My fourth (and last) talking heads album. I feel the same way I did listening to the first album. I really don’t enjoy it.

Really solid

Honestly all TH is gold.

Based on a single listen it went as interesting as I expected it to be. Maybe a drier listen would reveal more but I’ve heard better from Taking Heads, sadly. 3

was NOT a fan at all. not my jam, didn't like the music really. So uh, 1 star :)

Meh. Wanted to like it more but aside from a couple of songs it all sounds the same.

ماش

solid 4. Não é meu favorito do Talking Heads mas tem vários highlights da carreira, como cities e drugs

Good album.

Such a hard genre to pin down, but I dig it! Will need repeat listens but this was really good. Interesting instrumentals, experimental without being too weird, and post-punkish vocals. Up my street.

A couple of songs on this record were Talking Heads at their best - Life During Wartime was a highlight. A lot of filler, though, every song melded into one. Not bad but not great.

Had two talking heads albums and have to say I’ve been a bit underwhelmed considering their standing within the music community. Some great moments as I saw with ‘77 but a fair few forgettable tracks too. Maybe I need to wait to get Remain in Light

One of the weaker Talking Heads albums in my opinion. Has a some good songs, but the music doesn't carry the same punch as, say, Remain in Light... Which queued up after this album and the vibe was so noticeably different

Reescucha, ya lo había revisado hace tiempo y me encanta, otro álbum conceptual pero no sigue una historia tan puntual como The Wall, eso no quita que tenga unos temones y que la producción sea una locura, con letras que clan hasta día de hoy, simplemente Talking Heads.

This album is the beginning of Talking Heads’ classic stretch. Decades later, it’s still so odd and unique, even among their discography. Muted but exuberant, anxious but elated, paranoid but childlike. It contains multitudes. Must-listen #335.

Generally good music. I like the Talking Heads (am actually thinking about going to see Jerry Harrison play with the Violent Femmes in a month or two), but this album isn't my favorite. A SOLID 3.5, but not quite a 4.

3.5 stars Talking Heads can be brilliant. This album has moments of brilliance. The production is great. I particularly appreciate it because I first would listen to the album from illegally downloaded mp3s on my iPod that were terrible quality and broken files. It took me a long time to know that “Memories Can’t Wait” actually did cut out, because other tracks would do similar things because of bad files. But listening to the album now I can really appreciate how great the instrumentation is on this record. But as can happen on a lot of their records, it just kind of fizzles out. The last few songs have never been interesting to me. I had the same experience this time around. Half of a brilliant album is still half a not so brilliant album. The great moments are there but they don’t hold the whole album.

strained vocals.

este disco suena a cualquier otra rola de inicio de los 80’s, no se nota tanto el estilo de la banda idk life during war time es la que más me gustó

Very much enjoy this group. Dig the album, but not my fave. Love OG *Cities,* but that song is forever in a ph context in my brain first. This DB fella tho, fkn brilliant. 3.49 stars.

Et gammelt favorittband. Hektisk new wave, typ dance-punk, sunget av en tilsynelatende nevrotisk David Byrne. Elsker det. Top 3: Heaven, Cities, Mind

I respect this album for what it does. I do not care for most of the tracks on it. Life During Wartime is easily the best song on the album. It's experimental but at the same time, true to the Talking Heads.

for whatever reason, and i can't tell precisely what it is, but this album is a total miss me by talking heads' standards. aside from "life during wartime" and "heat" which are pure heat (though i much prefer the energy of the 2023 remaster's live renditions as the backup vocals add a LOT), i think it's the most conventional rock basis underpining this album that doesn't work for me even though this still has all the hallmarks of talking heads that i love. it's not that i dislike the album (and actually "memories can't wait" and "air" warmed up to me a bit), plus "animals" and "electric guitar" are fucking hilarious, but it's not one that i ever think to put on. granted, it's still talking heads, so i still quite enjoy it.

Two Talking Heads albums back to back? Okay! Well I like this one a lot more than the last! We start with I Zimbra, an absolute incredible opener that foreshadows the direction Talking Heads will go on future albums, but this album goes in a different direction pretty quickly. There's something almost spooky about some of the songs on here like Mind. In this way Fear of music almost feels like a concept album, with the concept being the name itself. Exploring the different facets of fear through song. I've listened to this album a bunch before but I'm always surprised at how many of the lesser-talked-about songs hold up so well. My only complaint is that I like the live version of Life During Wartime a lot better but I mean, it's hard to beat the absolute peak.

Great vibe

my kind of fun music from the old times

Of course. Shut up.

I thought Life During Wartime would overshadow the other songs on this album but I was pleasantly surprised. I think I would probably only listen to Life During Wartime outside of this album, but I still think this album is great

I get what they were going for on some of these songs but it doesn't always Sound Good™

Didn’t properly listen but what I heard was decent. Always groovy and different with David so appreciated that on this album wouldn’t say it’s their best tho.

오, 토킹헤즈 베스트 : I Zimbra

cities alt - drums i zimbra - drums intro everything else is boriiing

Everyone get more weird this instant

I’m not going to lie I do enjoy the talking heads but I also thought my speaker had broken multiple times during this album… nope, it’s just like that

This is a great album, don't get me wrong, but Talking Heads sounds way better performing live than they do constrained in a mix like this. Some songs feel a bit stunted and not as full as their live countparts. Specifically, "Life During Wartime". The album mix fades the song out while Byrne is still singing. In alternate cuts and live versions there's a whole minute of lyrics and music that is just cut from the original track. It makes no sense to me at all. Favourite tracks: I Zimbra, Memories Can't Wait, Animals, Drugs 4/5

Pretty solid not too into the funkiness, talking heads is something I will definitely explore more when I’m open to it because it was solid despite not liking that kind of sound

Okay. Not sure I like the lead's singing style but the music is fine.

Three Talking Heads albums in, I’ve come to accept that I will never understand the appeal of David Byrne, and that’s fine. To each his own. I do think the rest of the band sounds great.

eh

You know how some bands do a Greatest Hits release? If the Talking Heads did, none of these tracks would be on it. And again, ugh Brian Eno. He's a talentless hack that snuck his way into a producer's role.

These heads need to shut the fuck up

Хороший альбом, но понравился меньше, чем предыдущий альбом Talking Heads.

Britpop from the eighties

Famously a transition album and a fascinating one at that, featuring a handful of songs that would be right at home on Remain in Light and a bunch of others that sound like an extremely odd post-apocalyptic hellscape. Not as accessible as their previous two records, but overall meatier, with lots of conceptual experimentation from Byrne and cascades of otherworldly 'treatments' by Eno. Layers upon layers of sound, meaning and feeling to explore across a lifetime.

Elevator music and also very, very good pop. I've had many nice evenings with a beer and interesting conversation while Talking Heads drone, fizzle and pop away in the background so it feels like home. When you have to listen to it in detail though it feels like having to retake my masters exams. Extra 0.4 for heaven being a place... which is an all time classic 3.9

Definitely an interesting album, i enjoyed the listen and the music was pretty funky but i dont think i will revisit any of the songs. didnt dislike or overly love the album.💿

Not blown away by this one but it was still enjoyable. Didn’t love any of the songs but overall I liked the album more than I didn’t.

I like talking heads but not their best work in my opinion

Ough

Weird theatre kid does art funk. Byrne expertly navigates the tightrope between intelligent and unhinged.

"I Zimbra" and "Drugs" are very interesting, I enjoy the sound of their music, it is very interesting. I still re-listen to some of their songs still. I love "Cities" as well.

Αυτό το αλμπουμ είχε ιδιαίτερη προσωπικότητα. Παντού υπήρχε το στοιχείο της funk με τον δικό τους τρόπο. Η φωνή του τραγουδηστή όπως και στο Unknown Pleasures ένιωθα δεν τραγουδούσε αλλά κάπως μιλούσε απο πάνω Zimbra

My favorite album by a band I like, but don’t absolutely love.

This was better than the last talking heads album, but still not amazing.

Enjoyed this album more than the previous Talking Heads one

I was a bit afraid of this album.

stars: 3.5/4 quite trippy, almost psychedelic. reminiscent of talking heads other work if I recall. random and chaotic. i like it

What an inconsequential album. No hit songs, nothing interesting or noteworthy, just pretty generic early new wave stuff. I would love to give this a 2.5 because it's perfectly average, inoffensive music, but this rating system is not the greatest, so I'll bump it up to a low 3/5.

lowk bored

Great album

This is good rock and roll uh, music?

I love the talking heads!!! Life during wartime is brilliant & I Zumba is a must listen. This album really marked a major growth spurt for this band out of punk-ish sound to the more sophisticated sound that became their trademark!!!

Am I the only one who finds David Byrne’s voice to be grating?! Every song was so similar it just blended into my background noise. Not a fan

Måske har jeg hørt for meget talking heads of er ikke klar til en renaissance endnu. Jeg kan høre alt det jeg kan lide ved talking heads, men det rammer ikke helt for mig. En stærk treer og det har jeg ikke noget imod ift tidligere ratings, UD OVER der er lige han Elton jeg gav fire...

Det er ægte svært at overdrive hvor fuldstændig insane et album, det her er Det er så godt, og jeg vil så gerne give 5, men albummet er ikke engang deres eget magnum opus 4.2
