Some songs were a bit too experimental but most were great - the seed (2.0) was definitely my favourite and thirsty! is a great party and hype song.

Run run run was almost a verge into country music. interesting structure with Nico being a sort of reprieve from the most rock elements.

4.5 - love morrissey. definitely expanded beyond the smiths and has a much stronger beat with the normal morrissey lyrics.

Way too long. 1st half was much better than the 2nd.

pretty good, similar to cibo matto

4 Tightrope stands up. Come Alive (War of the Roses) is fantastic and surprising. Make the bus is also really good. 57821 - mix of indie and folk.

3.5 - some good songs but I don't think it is a revolutionary album or piece of art.

Nice and short compared to a lot of the other albums. 40 minutes is really the perfect amount for an album.

3.5 not bad but I don't know if it's super inventive.

4.5 - amazing! Doll parts still fantastic.

Obviously a good album. But it is just so long with all the different versions of the songs.

Doesn't feel as developed as his later albums but still very beautiful. You can definitely tell it is from the 80s. Feels very Sting. Really in between a 3 and 4 (like 3.75).

Not bad but I wouldn't listen to it again. The 2nd half was hard to get through.

I liked it, especially birds and ships with Natalie Merchant. For people who like folk music.

Loved this album!

I liked it but it didn't go hard enough for me. I think it felt like a sanitised version. But saying that the song Marcus Garvey is one of his top listened songs for a reason.

Crystal days - excellent, a really easy listen. I think my favourite of the album. Silver - a very good opener. The yo yo man - feels like if the smiths did alternative ethereal country. The Killing Moon - there is a grandness here. 3.75/5

Not really my vibe. Some songs are passable I guess. It was hard to sit through it. Too long - could have been a 40 min album.

Very easy listening but not my favourite. I liked monkey man and had never heard it before. 3.5

It's been a while since I listened to it and I think it still holds up. But I don't know if it is effortlessly relistenable. For that reason 4/5.

Perfect length for an album. No notes.

Pretty good and very relaxing.
