Title: Fear of THIS Music
Product review: So what happened? Many reviewers here have offered their pet theories as to why this Talking Heads recording is good or bad. You will see that few take the middle road, nor can I.Certainly, any band has the right to take any direction its wishes, and on this CD, the freefall that started with True Stories and Little Creatures ends in an all out burn out. The songs are, for the most part, cloying and annoying, and the band's preoccupation with trying to synthesize disparate elements of "world" music leaves me cold. Basically, this CD foreshadows the direction of Byrne's solo career, which is not a direction most core Talking Heads fans cared to follow.I suppose there is a place for music like this. I call it the trashcan. It's rarely a good sign when the used CDs start at under five bucks, is it?
