So now that the dust has settled can we agree that this is overrated?

Yeah, it's trash, just like everything David Bowie did that wasn't between 1976 and 1980
>>
>>63540610
this

>>63540589
nah, its his best album post-scary monsters
>>
>>63540589
It was a good album it got overrated but it was interesting if nothing else, kinda wish he had enough time for one more album to see him go fully into the deep end
>>

>>63540610
I don't quite agree with that

But it's not a perfect album, even though it was the perfect way to go out strong. The singing is sometimes really bad, although I doubt it could've been helped, and some of the tracks (last half of Blackstar, I Can't Give Everything Away) have cheesy production
>>

You
Good job adding to the discussion
>>
>>63540610
there r some things his released dat dont fit in dis time period which r good and low is hes only good album but otherwise dis
>>
Yeah
>>

i hated reading that

After listening to the album three times, I found the instrumentation for this record to be so basic and bland. I assume most people that like this album like it for the lyrics, which are highly unrelatable IMO.
>>
>>63540739
I think people like it because of how it relates to his death. Interesting concept, but it's still trash.
>>
>>63540610
I am a lazy fuck that only listens to an artist's more famous records: The Post.

Kill yourself my dude.

>>63540589
No we cannot agree.
>>
>>63540672
Wow...legit proof that underage people post here.
>>
>>63540589
Didn't p4k change this from a 5 to best new music after he died?
>>
>>63540792
Except Bowie's most famous period is the glam rock stuff, by far.
>>
>>63540824
Actually they changed it from a 2 to a 10/10 and said it was "pretty good for a white-privileged creepy old man"

I still think this album is fantastic

They gave it an 8.5 before he died and didn't change it.

hello newfag

Why do people hate Bowie all of a sudden? What the fuck?

Your mom is overrated

You can think an album is overrated and still like it. I've thought of it as 7/10 since the start but it has glaring flaws (production and vocal performances), even though the lyrics are heartbreaking and some of the arrangements are super cool
>>
>>63541264
Because it's edgy to upset people when someone they like dies. They have no effect on us really.

I've been a huge Bowie fan for years prior to his death. After living with this album for a few months now I think it seriously might be his very best record. I listened to Station To Station (one of my favorite albums) right after Blackstar last night and STS fell totally flat.

>the instrumentation for this record to be so basic and bland

Drums, synth, bass, guitar, vox, auxiliary sounds

Seems pretty standard, I guess every band is bland because just about every band uses this instrumentation.

I haven't heard the album in its entirety and don't really care to do so, but from the couple of tracks I've heard, the instrumentation is perfectly fine because it's in the hands of perfectly capable musicians (Mark Guilliana, Jason Linder, etc)
Seems like you know jack shit, though I'm not surprised, this board is chok full of retards like you.

Decent album but doesn't have the replay-ability his classics do. Good for modern bowie but I wouldn't consider it one of his best.
