I would have got into it if i were a teen as an adult it has a built in whinge under the music that rubs my taint. Listened to an earlier album 'sandbox' and that was okay. Who is picking these albums? AI or a first year art student?
what you get when a heroine addict is aggressively mediocre. There are a few songs that are played on ye olde radio but the rest are like hippies taking one step away from 1950s early 60s rock, as in there is bridge to more modern music and they aren't over it, or in the middle, but have one foot on the bridge and one in the 1950s. Not terrible, just aggressive beige.

Much goodly. Talking Heads was the big thing when i was a kid but i never got into them - '77' though is much accessible, with the same wry social observation. Will Keep.
muh
I listened to this - and all the Queen albums pressed at the time - in my adolescence years and absolutely jizzed over them. Listened a few years back and was surprised and a little downcast at how they had faded in my estimation. Lets see what this is like with another relisten... there are one or two zingers but the album is a bit all-over-the-place. The harmonies that work in BR kill the ompf of The Prophet, I dislike the sentiment of Keep Yourself Alive but the others are good or a bit of laugh. On my patented -100 to 100 rating scale - where zero is that okay film that you didn't realise you were watching for a second time until 15 minutes in - its 65
Thought it was going to be a bit try-hard artsy but quite liked it. On my patented -100 to 100 rating scale - where 100 is god herself coming down and giving me the best sex ever, respecting me in the morning and doing the dishes on the way out is 90+ (because nothing get 100 in an imperfect world - i mean look at the sheets!) it gets 60

For years i wondered "is pop and popular music the same thing?"until I finally looked it up. This is pop music pa excellence, that is top down produced created only to make money and the lyrics are love baby love love me me love me me me. Look at that photo: either he is well stoned or his soul has left his body - perhaps both. If two music exes went to cocktail lounge and these two were making wallpaper music and one said "Bet you five bucks i can make them a hit," this is what you'd get. The first song was urgh okay but as the album went on it became like being immersed in a sensory deprivation tank. On my patented -100 to 100 where -90 is being put into a sensory deprivation tank and forgotten about for 5 days this is -10 for any single song but increasing minus the more songs you listen to: -60 -70ish for the album taken as a hole - i mean whole. It's a guesstimate as i couldn't finish the last two songs - my soul was leaving me.
