Parallel Lines by Blondie
Nov 11 2021

Somehow much more post punk than I expected. Nice moody songs as well as the big ones like heart of glass. I liked opening of "fade away and radiate" and there were songs like "I know but I don't know" and "will anything happen" where I thought I'd really grown to like the album as a whole. But songs like "I'm gonna love you too" and "picture this" kinda tainted it for me. There's something about the slickness and upbeatness that maybe inherently puts me off. I think a lot of the lyrics felt a bit surface level as well and slightly derivative compared to songs like "one way or another". Maybe I'm just in a grumpy mood. I still like the big songs on this album and found some new ones to enjoy, but very much don't feel the need to listen to it all the way through.
