Everything is wrong in all the right ways

Too long with too many similar songs

While not being super amazing, it is still great and I can't think of any flaws.

It's good, but not a very unique soul record. Cloud Nine is a good track though

Really great stuff, just a bit too repetitive and not enough experimentation to make it interesting enough

I am 100% biased. Growing up doing breakdance I heard tons of hiphop tracks that use samples from this album or just the tracks themselves. Even outside of its influence, this album is just great. Very danceable and creative, especially with it's fun takes on existing songs.

Did not impress me, but I will give it its props for influencing a lot of music to come.

This used to be my favorite album when I was 14, then I grew up and realized it wasn't as clever as I thought. Congratulations, Little Dark Age and Loss of Life are better.

I can handle ABBA when they bring the bangers, I can't really take it serious when it's the sappy over-dramatic Eurovision-esque stuff. This album is full of the latter.

At Least La Grange is good, the rest is forgettable and bland

Another honorary 5/5, not because it is a perfect album but because it consistently surprised me and I feel like every song has some merit or is very good.

We're the slipnutz, slipping on nuts, clowning around, and slipping on nuts. We're the slipnutz, slipping on nuts. Whoops he fell down: "I slipped on some nuts"

Yippie! 6/5 stars!

Metamorphosis and Raghupati are great but can't save this album from feeling quite unoriginal despite being a full sitar album

Bob Dylan vocals with very shimmery instrumentals to listen before sleep

It's a little sloppy at points, primarily at the start. Where the symphony and the band do not really integrate well together, and the symphony feels like an unfitting after thought addition, but when it works it works quite well. It is also just a bit too long.

A 90s British art-rock/pop album that I didn't know of that isn't mediocre or shit?! Surprising!

I can respect it for establishing things that would later be improved on by others, but just on its own it is too vague and out there without really coming together as a whole.

Could be 5 stars if it didn't feel like they got stuck in the same style of experimentation on the last 3 songs

It's a 4.5/5 but giving it a 5/5 because it surprised me so much.
