I wasn't huge on this before. Always thought it felt really rough around the edges and a bit disjointed. Now that's why I love it lol

This is a great album that has been overlooked by many over the years. I'm not going to argue it's his best (I don't know what his best is -- so many great records to choose from), but it is among his stronger albums. It's like the dark underbelly of Glam -- these are really dark songs for the most part, and the overall feel is one of filth and grime and sleaze, and I think it's terrific. "Rebel Rebel" is the classic and deservedly so as it's one of the best riffs ever (played over and over and over, just bashing you in the head with its filthy power), but several of the other songs warrant the status as well. Bowie in the 70s was basically a lock to turn out something of high quality (eh... maybe not Pin Ups), but this one deserves special mention since it normally gets short shrift next to the more universally praised Aladdin Sane/Ziggy Stardust (both brilliant of course).

Bowie's dirtiest and rawest album. This is a glam masterpiece that is overlooked because of Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane.

My favorite Bowie album after the Berlin Trilogy. Why Bowie didn't play the lead guitar again after this album? It's amazing!

Probably my favourite Bowie album. Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (reprise) just makes it. One of those albums you have to listen to all the way through so you get the full experience as the songs melt together perfectly.

This is such a great futuristic, post-apocalyptic concept album. It still makes me feel the way it first did. "We are the Dead" is my favorite. When I hear it, I just think, it's OK to feel human sometimes...
