this was released as a single back in 2014, and to the best of my knowledge, Bowie wanted the Maria Schneider Orchestra, who featured on Sue, to be on Blackstar. This did not happen, which led to him seeking out Donny McCaslin's band.

The title track is such a monster. The other tracks fall kinda flat compared to it

Agreed somewhat. One of those cases where an album struggles to uphold it's initial lofty standards.

Then don’t. Let it unfurl, infuriate, intrigue and entice. Let it work itself into your soul or the bin.
