The Velvet Underground & Nico
The Velvet Underground
Any song with Nico is a big NO for me. I really dislike her boring, sleepy, unusually low and monotone voice. Not sure if the songs were good at all, because I just can’t stand her voice that much. Immediately skipped.
That said, I was surprised that I kinda dug the deconstructed vibe of the rest of the album. ‘European Son,’’ ‘I’m waiting for the man’ and ‘Venus in Furs’ were the songs I most liked.

Too Rye Ay

If Queen and the Talking Heads had a baby and that baby was a little bit into Celtic and Southern music.
Theatrical. Upbeat. Big. Come on Eileen is a classic, but I really enjoyed 'Jackie Wilson said...'

Walking Wounded
Everything But The Girl
Sappy, simplistic lyrics about love and heart break.
Music is hit in miss between runway sounds and complex bleeps and bloops.
Too sappy for me.

I know this is iconic 80s Tina Turner, but the pairing of the synth and her voice do not do it for me.

I had to skip most songs at about 1/4 through because they were unlistenable. I had hoped because they sounded a bit like Jimi Hendrix. But no. A big meh.

Conflicted on this one. On one hand, it’s an interesting sound. I can see the influence this had on bands I do like, such as ‘Mum.’ But, it’s also really repetitive and sometimes unsettling.
