Listening statistics & highlights
Darkly funky in a New York art school cocaine way. Crosseyed and painless is a jammer for the ages.
Not my bag.
Weird that this was seen as a return to gritty nyc. On re-listen, it’s super poppy. Almost an 80’s jauntiness to some of the beats. Just the distorted bullhorn vocals effect and their neuvo-scuzzy look was enough I guess.
Music good. Morrisey bad.
Existential angst from a working class perspective. I like the more rockin tunes and could take a pass at the ballads. The Promises Land is a great anthem except that there is no such thing for the American worker or the troubled soul.
