A very cool sound. This was great to just chill out to, I like the vocals and the percussion a lot. I just wish it was maybe 15 minutes shorter, as it dragged a bit towards the end.

Great music for when cleaning.

I’ve heard this album before I got it generated here. I mean, it was almost impossible to ignore two summers ago. Although reviews seem to be mixed on the site so far, I really enjoy this! It’s a really fun and danceable and well produced pop record.

My favourite thing about this was probably Snoop Dogg, and the production was great too. I just think it is too long and the skits take up too much of the album.

Ik hou van Bassie en Adriaan.

Super fun and funky album. While this debut album doesn’t reach the same heights as Talking Heads would later in their career, it’s just so catchy and quirky and unmistakably them.

Mmm interesting. Definitely not like anything I’ve heard before. It’s super sweet and soft but there is this tension and melancholy underneath.
The production is great and I like the overall sound of the record, but sometimes it drags a little and I’m not super sure about his voice.

Favourite song: Maryan

Fun pop rock album. I guess it was what I expected, The Kinks haven't missed for me so far. A cool mix of some more rocky tunes and some quirky and joyous piano based songs. Pretty harmonies as well.

Favourite songs: Victoria, Australia, Shangri-La, Arthur

I actually liked this much better than I expected. It’s too long, that’s for sure, but there are some awesome pop songs on here, cool production, and some nice beats.

Really fun and quick psychedelic soul album. I enjoyed this very much and the vocals are awesome. However, I do think the version of "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" that is on here is not among the all time best versions out there. Still nice though.

Hot take maybe but this album is better than Electric Ladyland

I was expecting another generic electronic album, but this was actually pretty good. A bit long, and some songs could have been cut, but overall this was pretty nice to listen to.

Some fun moments where I was bopping along, but this is so generic and cheesy and sounds very much of the time. Bloated as well, this has no right being an hour long.

Half an hour of noise with some German screaming over it. Pleeeeaase just give me a melody or something. This became annoying super quick, even though I was laughing at the absurdity a bit in the beginning.

Surprisingly liked this about the same level as Loveless, even though this seems to be rated waaay lower. I don't know, I really liked the fuzzy sound of this (not too different from the album before this) and the last track was really really awesome.

Really everything I want from a new wave album is on here. Just very catchy, fun, quick and danceable. I don’t think I would’ve found this album if it weren’t for this list/generator.

Veeeeery 60s. “California Dreamin” is an awesome voice of course, but the rest really doesn’t do much for me.

A very sweet chill album. Very melancholic. I liked the strings and the flutes, and overall enjoyed this better than I expected.
3.5 stars, but I’ll round up.

Kind of what I expected having heard the debut; it is similar, but just amped up and even heavier and rawer. However, I really did not expect the saxophone on here. This really flies by and the longer songs don't feel like 7 minutes at all.
And I have to mention the album cover, it is so sick. Possibly one of the coolest ever.
"Dirt", "1970" and the title track were my favourite songs, but honestly these are all bangers.

How can a 30 minute album feel dragged?
