I love the combination of David Bowie with Brian Eno, achieve a futuristic and edgy sound that will last forever

While his music is quality, I just don't connect with it... even this one, which I think the quality of music is actually his highest.

Very different from what I had come to expect from Bowie, but yet quite charming and beautiful. The division in the fragmented A side and the more artsy orchestrated B side provide an excellent equation for Bowie's talent as one of the world's greatest musical artists.

Subterraneans is absolutely breath taking, brilliant collaboration between Bowie and Eno - as is the entire album.

I totally agree with Santiago.
S2S and Low are Bowie's 2 greatest albums and that is saying something cause practically everything he did from 1970-80 was exceptional.

One of the best albums of all time and one of Bowie's two best records along with Station to Station.
