This is a great example of how one can recognize important, ground-breaking, and/or impressive art but not actually enjoy it as consumer of art.

Christ Almighty you can't be serious. This album should only be considered important because it's a lesson in why you don't want to make art without limits. One star for the one good song ("Tusks").

XTC is the subject of the only Trash Theory video I came out of with LESS of an appreciation for a band. Absolutely no surprise that their only good song was written by the bass player and not the nonce who started this whole pointless endeavor.

One day in high school we were running track. I had stopped for a rest and an acquaintance begged for my DiscMan so she could had something to take her mind off the boredom of laps. I had the Odelay CD inside and warned it might not be to her taste; she said she didn't care, she just needed "anything". Anyway after one lap she practically threw the DiscMan back at me lol.

Janelle Monáe
I remember finding Monae's sound fresh when this album came out, but have struggled with her failure to evolve in the decade+ since. Some of her worst instincts on this record - that make it less consistent and way less fun than it should be - are now most of her output. Ideas are everywhere all at once, underdeveloped and pounded into hooklessness by overstuffed and cringey production. Imagine if everyone song on this album was as tight as "Cold War"?
