The best I can come up simile-wise is…imagine if PiL were more funk inclined and enjoyed jamming with light synths and the occasional industrial pounding sound effect.
Yes?
I dunno. Is this what burnout feels like? 413 records in to 1985 and I’m not sure I’ve learned anything except there was a shit ton of music released that year and the cream rose and the chaff chaffed.
You know what? This is one of those records that I would normally lobby to pass on and turns out to be a really interesting experience. Imagine if The Residents were actually trying to sound like a rock band. That’s the vibe I get here. As I moved through it, it grew on me more and more.
I kind of lost track of what song was what since nothing is labelled here but, I really dug this, nonetheless.
