I couldnt finish this. This album is so boring. She managed to make House Of The Rising Sun a snoozefest. I tried to listen to this twice and both times I had to give up. Dreadful.

Didn't love, Didn't hate.

Pretty fun, but grating after an hour.

This shit sucks.

Every song was almost good. They all just lacked some necessary component.

I remember listening to a little bit of Siouxsie and the Banshees a year or so ago and thinking it was utter trash. Now, I think this is peak. WTF happened a year ago??? This is sick!!

This album is just so lame. Acoustic guitar nonsense

I enjoyed this, but I didn't hear anything too exciting. It's alright

Not exciting and derivative.

Bonus review: I've always wanted to listen to this group's album "Drums and Wires" as Danny Elfman said it was an inspiration for his band Oingo Boingo's album "Only a Lad". I decided to listen to that album first, before "Skylarking". It's really good, and I can hear where Elfman got some ideas from. He improved on it massively - really, there's little reason to listen to "Drums and Wires" when one can listen to "Only a Lad" - but it's still a great record. 5/5.

The sound design of this album is stunning, especially the song "Basic Space". I imagine that this album is an excellent experience if listened to while lying down in a quiet, dark room. Unfortunately, in all other circumstances, it is very dull.

Music from before music got good. Fortunately not too painful!

I enjoyed listening to this - it had a strong '90s sound. Don't think it should be on the list, though!

I hated listening to this, but I don't think it's actually bad, thus a 2

Not as good as the other Temptations album; not as fun.

On one hand, I appreciated this record, and the tunes are good. On the other, it was way too long.

Bit shit. Maybe if I read the lyrics I'd like it more but I'd rather read something else

It's alright. Nothing sparked anything in me.

I feel like I must be missing something super obvious because everyone except for me thinks this is the bee's knees. For me, the album was simply awful.

Bit random and disorganized.

Whole bunch of nothing. Liked the earlier Radiohead album I got more.
