Damn, it's blackstar. It came out right before his death and he's singing on his literal death bed. While I disagree with folks in that Bowie is more of an acquired taste than most, I consider this an incredible swan song of his work. Exceptionally approuchable as an album in a way more of his work is now
Some of the British invasion with some of the clearest sounds. Their first album was one of the best, though I did listen to the remaster from 2018. And the demos. It's hard to tell how much of this is me purely enjoying it, or how it felt like putting on comfy old slippers and sitting in a well loved couch to relax
The stooges, with Iggy pops crooning vocals. Hot damn. There's an incredible energy and old-school rock down. Overdrive, minor reverb, equipment that's fuzzy and a bit shitty but by god all of that has not become the appeal and the charm.
A wild ride. I've never actually listened to the whole thing all the way through, only ever catching the singles. Insane how much of a legacy this album and culture and era has, even today. I was tripping when I saw that it was making shawty and timbs jokes, and honestly disheartened at how a good day in the man's life was one without violence. Is it good musically? It's less than the some of its parts. Is it good as art? It's sublime. It's raising the bar for what I SHOULD call a 5 star.
Just never really got into the man. I love every individual part, from the voice to the guitar to the basslines, but together it just slides off my noggin
Definitely an album. While I love it and see how every coffeeshop musician adores it, not my fav
I love thr ray gun but something about the Foo Fighters always felt off. For every learn to fly there's an album I don't like. The Alt Rock version of Guns n Roses
Super fun poppy punkw as a good lil ride
Solid grooving, genre mashup from hiphop to classic mexican to even the early touches of lofi
