I know it’s packed with music that is important and influential and obviously very interesting; it’s just that a lot of it fails to really move or grab me. There aren’t many full 80s albums I get the urge to listen to, instead I just want to put on a handful of the classic tracks by whatever band.
I don’t know if it’s the production or what, but it keeps cropping up all the time whenever I listen to some classic 80s album that I hadn’t tried before.
This applies to Pixies, SY, Joy Division, Smiths, Husker Du etc etc. I don’t like it but
