Probably one of the most delightful post-punk records Ive ever heard and am disturbed it took me 31 years to get here.

Such a powerful sonic journey!

Maybe Zeppelin just isn’t for me but I’m glad I know this one start to finish now. Just always a bit one-note.

Surprisingly superb and succinct. Found more TRS I actually enjoy.

Perfection. No notes.

Still going through but I’m always blown away by the moody versatility of new wave sounds.

Such a powerful sonic journey!

Some of the most iconic guitar riffs of all time.

Chunky, funky, and such foundational sounds that shaped hip hop.

Cute.

Minimal fan

Not for me

Needed this

Don’t think I’ve ever heard this all the way through until now, I’m a fan.

Maybe is a bit too sterile for me.

So foundational and it’s quite clear that they were literally doing their homework on what would ultimately be a genre and era defining sound for their albums to follow.

Breathtaking.

Not my fave J5 but definitely some new old heaters in this one I hadn’t paid attention to.

Probably one of the most delightful post-punk records Ive ever heard and am disturbed it took me 31 years to get here.

Foundational. Phenomenal.

Not my jam

Splendid. Stupendous. Stellar. Striking. Special. Soothing. Spectacular. Slaps.

Made for the LA night drives heading to that boy’s place.

Samey halfway through

Certified unskippable. Foundational to trip hop. Intrinsically metaphysical.

S’cute.

Yea fine.

Stop

Sounds so good as a whole. They have this mastery of mixing things up before it gets stale or predictable that all started from the very beginning. The second you feel the song is established and could get repetitive, they completely switch it up. And they carry this through at least Come With Us.

Will not support this talent again but know it has cemented itself in the pantheon of hip hop and pop culture.

Had never been much of a Dylan fan but this speaks to me and gives me more of a depth of understanding of how he is a voice and songwriter of a generation.

Amazing. No notes.

No more psychedelic rock

Whatever.

S’ok.

Marvelous.

Maybe I don’t get it

I’ve listened to this album quite a bit and have decided it’s just aight.
