Brilliant instrumentation and melodies are constant throughout, each song stands out for its originality. The album builds to Crown of Love and Wake Up euphoria, continuing through to Rebellion. And then before you know it the pace slows right down to a reflective finale with In The Backseat. One of the best, most sonically and lyrically unique debut albums you will ever listen to. Sounds just as fresh it would have done in 2004.

With all Kate Bush albums there is an element of intrigue and mystery. This is proved sonically with this album. The power and range of her voice is constant throughout with layers of atmospheric instrumentation. All mixed to never interfere with the vocals at centre stage but instead to enhance even more as the tracks build. Highlights are The Fog, Reaching Out, Deeper Understanding and the incredible finale This Woman’s Work. I personally prefer The Hounds Of Love slightly but this is still a valiant effort as a follow up to the album that has defined her career.

Great blend of gothic and electronic melancholy. The minimalist structure combined with the reverb turned up to 11 creates an intense, melodic atmosphere in the recording. It accompanies Robert Smith’s voice brilliantly. This album really shows the start of The Cure’s rise to legendary status.

The album peaks in the first half. Expectations through to I Could Be Dreaming are the standout tracks. The latter half of the album seems to mould into one and the songs don’t stand out as much. Still a half decent album with interesting lyrics. It’s very listenable (probably driving through the countryside) but it could be better based on the standard of the first half.

Pretty good. Very relaxing. Solid classic reggae underneath each song and revolutionary lyrics.

Quite progressive concept album. Full of catchy melodies and wit with a homage to England.

Masterpiece. Prince at his greatest. Extended version of Purple Rain with the guitar solo 👏🏻👏🏻

Bit samey for me, good background music but wouldn’t listen to it again. Three really good tracks in amongst it. Not Dark Yet, Standing In The Doorway and Make You Feel My Love

The sound is way ahead it’s time for 1972. Utterly bonkers in places but strangely enjoyable psychedelic.

Raw, natural punky sound. Apart from the last song ( which is bizarre) it is a great example of Green Day at their best.

No weak track on this album. Powerful and at times uncompromising rock album

Some good tracks but not for me.

Liked Little Hands and Diana. The rest was not for me. The emphasis of a psychedelic core was a little overbearing.

Proper classic soul. That voice is incredible

I know it’s a style of it’s time but half way through album the screaming seemed too much and took away from the song too much.

Pretty boring

On the whole very disturbing and can see why this band is controversial. Despite that two fantastic military style instrumentals : F.I.A.T and The Great Seal
