R.S. Summary
:
Eno's first solo album pioneered a new kind of glammy art rock: jagged, free-form and dreamy. "Baby's on Fire" and "Needles in the Camel's Eye" are vicious rockers with detached vocals, and Robert Fripp's warped guitars swarm and stutter.
My Vote
: Towering yea. I play this one a few times a year at least. First-rate glammed-up art-pop from the sagest synth wizard of the 70s, and its incredible how many variations he can spin out of similar melodies while making them sound wholly unique. There's feminism, there's neo-Carthaginian child sacrifice, and a plethora of dark humor. I love the wildly unique sound processing as well - the textures rendered from the guitars and keyboards are incredible and create a resplendent cacophony. It's avant-garde for '74 but still very accessible (or at least it ought to be).
FINAL TALLY 17-1-0 = 94.4%

Big yay. Like no other "pop" I've ever heard.
He's always categorized as glam, ambient, proto-punk, progressive, whateverand yet he can't be accurately described as a single one of them (at least not on his early albums). I think that's the sign of a truly great artist.
Eh I don't know what 'phallocentric' means, but NO GIRLS!

Youd have to be one messed up individual to not give this album a yay. Id still say his next two albums were better but this is still an easy Yay!

Yea. Robert Fripp adds greatly to my enjoyment of this, even though it's a brief appearance.
I sometimes find music so cathartic that it makes me lethargic

YEA(With the critical praise it normally receives, seems like this one should be much higher on the list..)

This is one of the two Eno albums I own and like, so yay.

Might not have even thought about it except someone else had just started a thread on Die Antwoord. I wish they would expand the first couple minutes (pre-music) into a feature film.
