"The album starts on an excellent high note and continues strong until about halfway through when it starts to lose itself. Really excellent lyricism throughout, and the concept of reflecting on past actions/livelihood in response to the world ending is a very intriguing way to tie the album toget..."  [+]  Reply

"Narcissus gave up all hope. "I'm incapable of love", sadly that seems to be the point, but the music plays well crafted and the voice still holds a reminder of the days when it sung about nothing but love (or maybe the struggle to be loved)."  Reply

"Contrary to the other comments, I see this as where Bowie starts to get himself together again after the failures that were Tonight, Never Let Me Down and Tin Machine. It's not particularly good, but at least it's better than what he had been doing at the time."  Reply
