The first half is jittery and frantic, and amazing. The second half kinda gets boring repetitive, and slow
OnaterI like to imagine this album as waking up in a dark room tied to a chair without knowing how you got there as a weird man in a big suit yells at you about his hands and the properties of facts and shapeshifting faces while awkwardly dancing.
Such a great dancealbum. The first three songs gets any? Party going.
This album is so underrated. It's way ahead of its time.
szozeOne of my first vinyl records (I bought it back in 1981) and still one of my favorites. Very different to everything I heard before and after. Fantastic songs and great production from Brian Eno. Great musicianship from the band and probably Adrian Belew's defining moment.
FlayA simply amazing album, with amazing production. I once saw someone describe it as ten funkiest album ever made by white people, and I find it hard to disagree.
Too tracks: Once in a Lifetime (a serious contender for best song of all time), Born Under Punches and The Great Curve.
Great Talking Heads Album.
Favorite Track: Once in a Lifetime
Tier List for my preferences of the tracks on this album:
Top: 1, 2, 4, 5
High: 3, 7
Neutral: 6, 8
Komorebi-D 01/18/2017 01:31Aside from some of the best riffs, instrumentation and mixing ever put to a record, its the lyrics that are the pinnacle here for me. So crushingly existential, Byrne's wailing about menial jobs & fizzled out lives only add to the insane genius of the musicality. This theme is especially present in the single, "Once In a Lifetime" which isn't a "happy song" at all.
Despite what the populace may say, I love "The Overload". Its a damn near perfect end and makes the dark, post-punk heart of the album, where it feels everything's got the better of the band.
Favoritas: Listening Wind, Once In a Lifetime, Crosseyed And Painless
