Police general. Used to listen to them a lot when I was younger but just kinda stopped for some reason, going back and listening through their stuff again now. Way ahead of their time, totally genius. Favorite songs, album rankings, stories about Sting being a fuckhead, "Andy Summer is underrated as a guitarist", etc go here.

Copeland is superb on the sticks - the drummer's drummer.

Love King of Pain and Next To You.

There are a ton of really really good bands that /mu/ just ignores. The Police is one of the best examples.

Is it an unpopular opinion here to say Mother is a good song? I like it.

I mean, I don't think it's their worst song, but I don't know them well enough to say what that might be.

My favorite Police song has always been Synchronicity II. So groovy, love the lyricism, just flawless.

>Copeland is superb on the sticks - the drummer's drummer.
Both he and Summers are criminally underrated and got so overshadowed by Sting's ego that it's un-fucking-fair. Nothing against Sting as a musician, but all three of those guys are legitimately god-tier players and people only ever remember Sting.

Synchronicity II is great.
Best album is Reggatta de Blanc though, without a doubt. They still have this amazing, untempered-with raw feel, which got lost from GITM onwards.
Best Song: Message in a Bottle. Popular choice, but it's just that good.
Overrated: Roxanne obviously, also Don't Stand So Close To Me
Underrated: Omegaman, Secret Journey

Everything up to Regatta de Blanc is GOAT. Don't need anything after Zenyatta Mondatta.

Fuck yeah dude
Police are underrated on this board

Synchronicity and Regatta are great records that I wonder why I don't listen to more often, actually
