| Husker Du Zen Arcade | 2.0 |
| Just do not see what people see in this. There are a few hits, "Something I Learned Today" being one of them. Randomized piano parts. Frustratingly repetitive singing. Bad lyrics. Compared to other classic acts (Bad Brains, Minor Threat) this doesn't compare. As much as I wanted it to. Have no inclination to return for another listen. |

I really love a lot of the ideas on this album. Specifically the trumpet sections, which is why I bought it. But
some parts really rub me the wrong way. Some of vocal parts really annoy me and take away from the music.
Really only on the track "Hands Are For Helping", it makes me cringe. Maybe I was prepared for ALL THE
EMOTIONS. But overall it's a very pulled together sounding record with a lot of interesting musical ideas and
textures. I will see if it grows on me. |
