Rated 6/10
After listening to Talk Talk Talk, it was actually pretty good if a bit of a mixed bag in some cases. The songs for the most part all had really cool melodies and just a really groovy and energetic nature but some could get a little much at points. The singing also worked rather well too with the unapologetically British accent that the singer had and i like those in some songs. This album is a rather good listen and the good outweighs the bad here.
Best Song: I Wanna Sleep With You
Worst Song: Dumb Waiters
Rated 4/10
yet another instance of the first song or two being solid and then the rest being a bunch of filler
Rated 6/10
Pretty good album, with a few especially good tunes on it. They're at their best when they slow down the tempo a little.
Rated 8/10
British new wave/post punk today. A fairly average album. Some really catchy numbers on this record. The first song on the album, Dumb Waiters, is awful, but the rest of the album is pretty solid.
Favourite songs: Pretty in Pink, All of This and Nothing, Mr. Jones, It Goes On
Least favourite songs: Dumb Waiters (dogs down the street were reacting to the fucking saxophone parts...)
4/5

Let's all get dressed up in some big old fur coats and eat a bunch of mushrooms.

Great album! Not one I had listened to previously, but I am sure I will come back to it again. Hidden gem. 4/5

Not bad but can’t give it more than 3/5

"I had to pay the doorman just to let me use the door. I had to use a muscleman to pick me off the floor"
I was pretty excited to listen to a Psychedelic Furs album, as I really love the song "Love my Way," and my dad (having been a teenager in the 80s) told me that The Psychedelic Furs were one of the bigger bands, influence-wise, in his high-school, along with the Cure, the Smiths, and others.
Upon listening to the album, I was pretty disappointed with what the furs had to offer. There were some songs with fairly good musical ideas behind them, such as: T1- "Dumb Waiters," and T2- "Pretty in Pink" (playlist track). But, much more frequently I found the songs to have very surface-level lyrics that were borderline embarrassing to be listening to, with uninteresting vocals over mediocre music, even if the music is in the genre that I prefer over most others.
Due mostly to the genre, the band's influence, and those first 2 tracks, the album will not get a 2/5, but rather a...
3/5
Rated 8/10
Sopivasti levoton alt-rock-pläjäys! 4/5
