Absolutely fantastic post-punk. Tom Verlaine's guitar work is part of what inspired me to pick up guitar again. This was probably the first post-punk album I really got into, I'd heard Unknown Pleasures before it but to be honest I still can't really get into Joy Division. But this album and Entertainment! are absolutely killer post-punk albums, still love them to this day.

Haven't actually listened to this yet, the album cover puts me off. I'll get around to it sometime.

Among the greatest of all time. Simple as that.
Might be considered post-punk, but it has the guitar playing of classic rock.

"I remember how the darkness doubled
I recall lightning struck itself" I love that line

A good album, but I remember a band that has an album that sounds like this, but has no where near as much acclaim as they do. I forgot the name of the other band/album so meh.
