"It's the context in which it's used. Suggesting something like (Bowies latest album is a pretentious offering) is just fucking ridiculous."



i disagree

With Bowie the more pretentious the better



Least pretentious recent albums? Reality and Hours. Both yawn worthy.



You need a daft concept and Dave lording it up over us mere mortals

Considering most copies are finding their way into stores as of now, and that it is coming out tomorrow, patience is all you need (unless you want the CD rip)

thanks dude, and thanks to whoever decided to give this a nod by featuring it as well.



@JWT Oh, it'll definitely pop up maybe by midnight I'd suppose.



Gonna name drop KILL, who back in '13 asked me to do a Bowie review. I finally did it, dude. Nearly three years later, and ignoring a box set review, I finally did it.

Best Bowie album since Scary Monsters... which was in 1980? Some of his previous albums were pretty fun but didn't come anywhere near as good as this one.

I'm so hype to hear this, the self titled single blew me away tbh. it was pleasurable to hear Bowie be experimental on that level again
