Re: Re: What Is So Bad About Outland?

It is very bizarre to read a whole list of positive reviews on the "Outland" album. Huh?

I have been a Numan fan forever - dating back to 1979 - and Gary is by far my favorite musical artist. BUT - let's all be honest here - "Outland" is far from great. With the exeption of "Heart", the album is disposable. Follow this up with "Machine and Soul", and it's a miracle we're still talking about Gary.

Put "Outland" up against "Dance", "I, Assassin", or "Pure", and it is indeed crap. Sorry.

No offense intended.

Re: Re: What Is So Bad About Outland?

Well chaps, I'll give it another listen. It didn't work the magic on me the first (and only three times) I've listened to it. I suppose part of the problem is that it fails to come up with a soundscape to do justice to the title (the film with Sean Connery). I'm probably the only person in the world who paid to see Outland three-times on its first release!
