Meh. Kinda cheesy. Well produced though.
Great album. Reminds me of learning guitar in high school.
Not my jam, but I can appreciate the lyrical skills.
Nice bass. Talented band, but overall pretty weak songs and shallow boring lyrics.
Further proof that P-Mac was the better songwriter. A couple good tunes on here but it’s mostly average at best. The last few seconds bumped John up a few notches on my list of worst harmonica players ever (he’s giving Bob Dylan a run for his money).
Was not really into this to start but it did grow on me as the album progressed. When Back To Life came on I was like, hey I’ve heard this. Was going to give it a 2 but, despite probably never listening to it again, I think it deserves a 3.
Couple real gems. Couple decent head bobbers. And a bunch of filler.
Solid 4. Would give it 4.5 if I could.
Never could jive with Jimi’s melodies and chord progressions. Very inconsistent, some good tracks on here though. Title track is strong.
Fun band. Consistent album. But, I was never really wowed by any tracks.
Pretty good. My first time hearing this artist.
My only experience hearing this band was on Beavis and Butthead… Breaking The Law!
Didn’t really know what to expect. I always thought Judas Priest was metal, which I tend to avoid. This was great though, more like hard rock with some metal-esque guitar solos. Was this ahead of its time?
I found it a little cheesy at times, but maybe that’s just because I’m hearing it for the first time in 2025. Maybe this was mind blowing back in the day.
Hits from the bong
Some good songs. The falsetto singing got old.
Amazing debut. This must have blown minds when it came out. I like how succinct it is too. 35 minutes, all killer no filler.
It was a fine album. Understandable why I’ve never heard of them though.
Liked the message, but the delivery was lackluster. First song was the strongest.
Never got into them beyond the radio hits. This exceeded my expectations. Kind of like the Sex Pistols but better musicians.
Surprised how guitar-forward this was. I always thought Blondie was like an 80s synth pop band. Reminded me of The Cars. I love how she breaks up her voice in the back of her throat every now and then.
Decent album. Got bored with it after a while.
It was alright.
Strong 4. There were a few songs though that I was happy when they ended.
Never heard of them. Was actually surprised how much I enjoyed it.
Meh. Some good moments, but mostly easily forgettable.
My favorite part was when it ended.
My first 5 star of an album I’ve never listened to in it’s entirety. I was fully engaged start to finish. Was expecting good things, since I love the hit single title track, was not disappointed
