    Brilliant songwriting, great production & a really tight sound. Always seemed to be a hugely underrated album.

    The title of this album may seem odd, but "Songs About Angst and Alienation That You Can Dance To" would have been even more cumbersome. With this album Talking Heads began to find their dance groove and break away from being just another New York punk band., if they were ever such a thing in the first place. This is one of those albums that grows on you the more you listen to it and realise just how much musical depth and sophistication there is in the apparently simple songs. This isn't a must have album, but it certainly is worth checking out.

    The era of transition from the 70s to the 80s is one of my favorites. It must've been exciting times. "Take Me to the River", all bias aside, is one of those rare covers that finds and breathes life into the essence of the song that even the original didn't. World Party did the same with Bob Dylan's "All I Really Want to Do" which I am very glad about, because it's such an inspiring song. It made me want to be a better person. That maybe is an appeal to ego, though. There's unique edginess here that later transformed into a softer, tighter mastery of their craft. The only thing to capture the same sort of ingenius expression, for me, is the movie American Psycho.
