i have no idea how they managed to make best friend, a two-minute song, feel this annoying and repetitive, but here we are

starts off about as middle-of-the-road as you can get
80s rock without any of the charm
love fever is pretty good though, and the album picks up in the middle

they covered under pressure
it does not work with just one singer
it also does not work without the vocal authority of david bowie
i got one verse in and skipped it

26 Jan 2024: Glenn Danzig/"Black Aria" (1992)
https://musiccouldbebetter.blogspot.com/2024/01/black-filler.html

the reason this wasn't released under just "danzig" is because it is not a rock album
it is garbage
imagine if every track was a filler intro track

do not recommend
this has absolutely nothing going for it in any direction
it's
fine

01 Feb 2024: Van Halen/"Women and Children First" (1980) [revisited]
https://musiccouldbebetter.blogspot.com/2024/02/women-and-children-first-revisited.html

van halen's debut is a classic to the point where i'm almost completely sick of it
but when you have such a strong debut, everything else is going to pale in comparison
women and children first's big highlight is, of course, loss of control
basically, aside from loss of control, every song here would be considered the filler on the debut album
except MAYBE romeo delight, if we're a little generous

legitimately terrible artwork
the last two tracks have intros that do the songs themselves no favors
