Day 100 of listening to an album a day.
This Is the end. It's crazy how fast it's been. To celebrate, I listened to this beast of an album in ONE sitting. I could go further but I'm extremely tired of this.
Start time: about 10 pm, 5/16/2026.
Finished at around 6:30 am 5/17/2026.
I'm gonna break this review down in three major parts (the three nights). So here we go ig.
Also sorry if my writing sounds like a three year old I pulled an all nighter for this with NO ... read more
Talking Heads is slowly becoming one of my favorite bands. I used to absolutely despise a lot of their works (basically everything besides Remain in Light). This is the definitive Talking Heads album and man is it fuckin amazing. A lot of the songs hit on this, a lot don’t (mainly the stuff from Talking Heads 77 and More Songs About Buildings and Food). Despite this, the stuff from their later works like Remain in Light, Fear of Music, and especially Speaking in Tongues go so ... read more

A pretty good studio album! Hypertension obv takes all the schnazz on this baby but MIT is still good. It's super reminiscent of Quarters which was a really nice surprise. The guitar on this thing also goes absolutely bonkers.
Avg track rating: 77.5
Final score: 75.

When someone told me this was the best gizz album, I knew I had to check it out. And I was left kinda dissapointed.
Its not bad by any means, but a lot of the songs are just extremely boring. Loyalty, Horology, and The Fourth Color are wonderous prog songs.
My hot take is that crumbling castle isnt a 95. Its still great, but like 8/10 great, not a masterpiece. The hook of it is so good and I was just left dissapointed when the song didn't really evolve throughout.
Average of all ... read more

Finals season so I couldn't really listen to anything long.
Heartbeat is one of the best King Crimson New wave era songs. Its genuinely so underrated. I don't even really like new wave but I can admit just how good this song is.
