My word this is generic and formulaic.
A slight angle is I don't know how serious they take themselves? Even so it's poor.

Really 80s and I like it. Not overly original and smoother than......well mint jam?
Good for background musak but there's nothing of any substance here.
Rated 6/10
The 3rd of their albums for me. I liked this better than the others but it's still only a 3*** from me
One day I might delve deeper but there's so so so many bands out there and so little time.
Rated 6/10
If Sunflower is the low point in their popularity then that doesn't seem to have influenced a myriad of bands that came after copying the vibe and style.
This is a pleasant and groovy album
Rated 6/10
Well you cancertainly hear the influence of kpop and videogames.
Upbeat quirky electronic- it's pleasant but in no way original.
Rated 6/10
I get where the 'Bowie' comments are coming from.
Not my cup of tea but pleasant enough. Feels like an 80's concept album
Rated 8/10
It's really eclectic and unexpected from one track to another and that should be commended. The lyrics are pretty disturbing but I guess she's just saying it like it is?
There are some good tracks here and I would listen again.
Rated 2/10
LOLOL!! There are TWO! Yes TWO!! Of these albums in the list.
Are there like 2 friends who have conspired together to do this? I gave the last one 3 stars and this is basically the same thing again.
C'mon guys there are better albums out there
Rated 8/10
Maybe I'm tired of Indie rock bands I've never heard of but this was such a trip down memory lane.
The title track is the best track by a million but he has such a good voice and the production is soooooooooooooo smooth.
Rated 10/10
Oh yessssss! I've had this to review on a similar 'top album' chart.
It's just has that indescribable 'something' that sets it apart from other albums and bands.
It's really resonates with me although I can understand others dismay at the chaos.
This is a beautiful mess.
Rated 6/10
By the time 2009 rolled around you'd think music producers would try and come up with a less cynical attempt to capitalise on the naivety of the young record buying public.
Having said that my daughter came in and chastised me for being an old fuddy-duddy and we listened to it again.
It is actually a stand out.
Rated 4/10
I really expected to like this but alas it feels like the recording from an experimental musical that folded after 3 weeks.
Ambitious and assured it feels overblown and dated.
Sorry.
Rated 2/10
I'm 60 and think I know what Punk is and this tries to ape the trappings but no the spirit. It brings nothing to the table in terms of rage and rebellion.
Rated 8/10
Well, I know this sort of genre is facile in some ways- quite cynically eclectic but the overall effect is pleasant so what the hell!
Rated 8/10
This is really good. I could only find this particular album on Youtube but they have other music on Spotify.
I was really into this sound as a student during the 80s but must have just missed them!
Really authentic sound - basic but so pleasant.
Thanks to the person who added this!
Rated 10/10
Ahhh.
I let out a long sigh when this popped up this morning.
It was like along dreaded and awaited ailment that you try to forget but at the same time want to get over with. I can't emphasise how important their music is.
This is up there with "D.o.A: The Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle" as one of the all time (Jazz Funk) greats.
Not my choice of their albums but this will do. "Thunder Perfect Mind" is a greater triumph.
Good grief this nonsense makes me want to quit.
Honestly so devoid or originality and uninspiring.
Rated 2/10
Status Qou have been going a gadzillion years and had a multitude of hits.
In 1972 (54 years ago) this was their FIFTH!!!! album.
One hits.
Why pick this album though? The rest is so generic.
Why not 'Whatever you want"? 7 years later and it's the same sound?
Rated 2/10
C'mon guys I have 3 daughters that commaneer the car stereo on long trips and play hours on this genre.
It's ok but so so so so not original!! ffs try something original? FKA Twigs for instance?
Rated 2/10
It's ok but so so so so ordinary.
Have you no albums you can think we should listen to? C'mon you can do it! Experimental and extreme stuff?
