It's pretty hard to top a record as ahead-of-its-time as "Remain In Light". With the removal of Brian Eno, Talking Heads decided to move on with their base sound and, while it's not nearly as infectious, "Speaking In Tongues" is still an extremely fun, colorful, well-written and eccentric record that contains some of their funkiest moments!

Oh, and also, this album is amazing.
This is underrated.
Nothing is wrong with this album. Every song slaps harder than I will slap someone in the face who disagrees with me.
Tied with More Songs About Buildings and Food as my favorite Talking Heads album. If you want an album with consistently amazing bangers then this must be the place for you.
Perfect balance of the bands signature weirdness and danceability.
