2 out of 5
I can’t believe we have listened to 1000 records together. I can’t believe I’ve listened to 1000 records in roughly 7.5 months.
I am so sorry that it comes on this record.
I have a deep affection for Gary. My biggest teenage crush is the one who turned me on to him. The first 3 records are, in my opinion, masterworks. (well, not the 1st one. Tubeway Army is good but he was still trying to be a punk then) Replicas, Pleasure Principle, Telekon, fantastic. Groundbreaking. Influential. I even liked Dance. But then Gary goes into the wilderness for a long time. And this one is just terrible. Gary’s a follower in the form he invented, which I imagine is difficult.
I hated this record when I first heard it 10 years ago. I still hate it.
