Heroes
by David Bowie
Dec 23 2025
Feels like a Talking Heads album. I found compelling sections in the first few tracks with Heroes being an obvious standout. I felt it was starting to drag at the end of Blackout but V-2 takes the energy back up and starts a totally instrumental section that seems pretty experimental. King Crimson similarities in the foreboding Sense of Doubt and Neukoln. The saxophone in Neukoln is a particular standout. Closing track is good but not overwhelming. 40 minute length felt very appropriate but overall, it felt like a less polished Remain in Light. 7/10
