This is a bit shit. I've heard people talk about Nick Cave like he's some sort of mythical creature, so I expected more. Maybe I'm missing the point, but I don't care.

Can't overcome the boredom

Good fun, varied, emblematic of its time

Kinda raw, but like raw carrots rather than raw cake batter

It's just singing. The singing is nice, but that's all it is. Got boring quickly.

Pretty cool, very typical of its era

They wrote the rulebook for funky dance music, as far as I'm concerned

I like some Morrissey albums but this didn't do it for me. Dynamic, cool, different, just lacking a spark.

I was once commandeered to be in a band with an Elton-obsessed maniac. Even though we didn't perform any Elton, it was enough to put me off him for life. I'm glad this has encouraged me to listen properly and give him a chance.

Smooth and creamy masterclass in sampling and rapping

Decade-defining, genre-defining.

Was expecting pop nonsense, got served with cool punk goodness.

Absolute dogshit. Bland, regurtitated, tedious dog shit.

Godly

Wasn't expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. It's like early Smashing Pumpkins crossed with Butthole Surfers.

Park loife

Straight-up fun, but not much else

I hope I die before I get old, and start believing in fundamentally racist and obvious dogma regarding international trade relationships

Pastor of Muppets

Why is every track used on Trigger Happy TV on this list? I'll tell you why: the tracks are fucking good. Shame about the rest of the album in this case.
