Rated 6/10
How come you can never find just the original album release anymore. Why is the a 2 part multi hour remaster. Who asked for that. I want coffee flavored coffee.
Anyway. This is…interesting. It reminds me of Flaming Lips. Which is a bad thing for my personal taste. It never sounds bad but it never hooks me.
Rated 6/10
Just about as close to generic as you can get. There's a few good parts, but its like the Monkees without the charm or the Beatles without the talent.
Rated 8/10
Aww, this is a really sweet little album. It’s only flaw and it’s not much of one is I’ve heard better covers of some of the songs. But that’s unfair
Rated 4/10
Ahhh jeez. An album that feels like it’s on here because of the tragic story rather than the actual quality of the album.
Rated 8/10
Every time I listen to this album I don’t get the hype. It’s very good. It’s also kind of annoying at times and really doesn’t FEEL earth shattering.
Rated 10/10
This was essentially tailor made for me to enjoy it
Rated 8/10
Kind of a baffling album because I really love it but I definitely don’t think I need to listen to it again? I can hear the influence on so many bands I love. But there’s something so overbearing and crushing in this. Natural’s Not In It? I love that song. I don’t know if I want to listen to it again though. I have really mixed feelings. 4 stars why not
Rated 6/10
I respect Bjork a lot but her music just doesn’t move me. This is just a dirge I can’t abide by.
Rated 6/10
Manages to peak early and sort of becomes this boring slow burn after. Not bad, not as good as Synchronicity.
Rated 8/10
This is good but not as great as Arrival. ABBA is best when they kinda suck but you don’t care because they are just spitting out bops
Rated 4/10
You ever play Lumines? This is like if Lumines music was boring.
Rated 10/10
Duh
Rated 6/10
Oh 90s hip hop, for every banger you make I also have to wade through macho posturing and homophobia.
Rated 8/10
Heartbreaking, a total asshole made a really amazing and beautiful album, or: Music to Get COVID to
Rated 6/10
Sometimes it sounds like exactly what it is, the evolution of Motown to funk. But then it just doesn’t live up to that lofty reputation. Why is this the least soulful version of Grapevine I’ve heard?
Rated 6/10
Hey British listening public of 1964, there’s a lot of new amazing music from America, but the problem it’s mostly by black people, so we found this random white woman with a great voice to sing them for you so you’re not TERRIFIED. It’s fine. But like. Just listen to the originals?
Rated 6/10
This uh…this could have been so much better. I think it suffers from the band not really having a consistent sound? At the start it was pretty hard and then the middle just drags into generic alt rock that was about to sound VERY dated in 1991. Not bad, very forgettable
Rated 6/10
Real improvement over the last album. Work It being the obvious stand out, but this album just sounds so much smoother and nicer
Rated 8/10
I have no idea why I like this so much lol
Rated 6/10
Certainly more upbeat and fun than a lot of other New Wave of the time. And occasionally the songs punch above their weight almost entirely because of Annie Lennox’s voice. But on the whole it does little to stick with me.
