The Good's Gone is a cool laid-back track that seems 90s indie! Some tracks a bit sub-Rolling Stones and /or Beatles. Title track, especially bass, and album cover excellent. Didn't like James Brown cover, although guitar work is nice. Smatterings of interesting drumming - The Ox rocks pretty hard.
Don't see what the fuss is about. Some obviously hummable tunes and quality production, but underwhelming.
Interesting sounds. I like the discordant piano on the title track, but it begins becomes annoyingly self-indulgent in the solo. Panic in Detroit has a good riff, but is, like some other tracks, a bit boring. Cracked Actor is a bit more rock'n'roll, and the guitars sound great. Overall, I couldn't help but think how good Bowie worked as part of a visual experience in Moonage Daydream, and how this album just lacks oomph.
Lots of variety and experimentig. Fewer killer tracks, but a great listen.
Better than I expected, but not that original / interesting. Decent catchy numbers.
Very well crafted numbers, some variety, and a couple of classics. Too long, though, and some of the reggae and country doesn't work for me.
Eclectic , interesting, not nostalgic.
Not really my thing. Good voice and some good writing, but... On 2nd listen, I was more impressed, both by music and lyrics.
Very much of its time. Evocative and interesting lyrics. Some of the sounds a bit experimental - some too discordant and not enjoyable. I prefer the tracks with Lou Reed on lead vocal.
All killer no filler. Filthy, not as funny as Bon Scott's AC-DC, but great tunes and storming guitar
Pleasant enough songs, but not a lot to go back for.
Doesn't ask work, but really imaginative
Enjoyable, simple, possibly ground-breaking, but quickly surpassed by the soul greats like Sam Cooke, Otis, and Wilson Pickett.
Ok energy, all a bit the same
Pleasant, but not that inspiring. And it starts with a cover!
Enjoyed more than I thought I would. Interestingly grungy.
Pleasant, talented, bit dull.
Pretty dull. Their best album must be a Best Of? Too much filler that doesn't say much. Some better highlights
Like the beats, especially the remixes. Classic chill.
Excellent. A range of politics, humour, relaxation, and immaculate music.
Started well... but no.
Like. Not too attention-grabbing, for me.
Humorous and complex. Great interplay and beats.
I get it, just not really my thing
Better than I expected!
Dull
Excellent. Little filler, great lyrics and banging rhythms
Liked the energy and vocals.
Good in parts
Scrappy writing and playing, a couple of classics, but...
Pretty derivative britpop. Rock for people who don't like rock
Honestly don't get it. Why Elvis if it's motown or blues? Saved by a couple of classics.
Beautiful voice and production not the greatest songs
