A road trip album for sure.

A classic, very much vibes.

While I found some of this enjoyable the album devolved into some performance-art-level weirdness that I couldn’t embrace.

Vibes but not what I would characterize as an album I would listen to any time. For the mood it fits, it hits.

I don’t know whether to be amazed or depressed that a near-50-year-old album is relatable.

Major grunge girl vibes.

I understand that for the genre this is foundational etc but the style is too abrasive to be anything other than a very occasional listen.

This IS rock music. I just listened and understood.

This is the music they play when you go to the grocery store mid morning on a weekday. Not terrible, not great, just eh.

Solid listen. Some songs carried a lot of similarity to others but worth the experience.

This album is only getting two stars from me because of the song “Human Cannonball”. This wasn’t music, it was performance art…had to listen under the influence to experience anything except “WTAF”

This album swings between agitation, desperation and melancholy in a way that most bands simply cannot.

This album makes me think of Miami and the way it rains, which is wild because the artist is Brazilian.

The storytelling aspect of this album is off the charts. The melancholic tone, while appropriate to the subject matter, is…polarizing.

A storytelling hallmark of its era, but still hits like all good memories of the early 90s do. Solid gold.

Solid listen, road trip vibes

I appreciate this for the kind of music it is but this album is more “introspective scenes in The Sopranos” music than it is “classic R&B road trip” type music.

I got into this album not knowing what to expect and being pleasantly surprised. While I’m not sure how frequently it would be in rotation I can see this album keeping me company. Not a complete lyrical masterwork but rhythmically satisfying.

The songs that hit on this album hit HARD, but it veers too much into theatrical territory for me to consider this essential.
