Obviously, I'm biased, but what do you think about the Talking Heads?

"The island of doubt
Is like the taste of medicine

Still waiting!"


One of the all time greats. Remain in Light is an absolute masterpiece.

two thumbs way up

I really enjoy them although I haven't listened to a huge amount of their music at all. The only album by them that I own is the live album Stop Making Sense. It has most of the big hits that I really wanted. What other albums would you recommend checking out if I wanted to expand my knowledge of them?

I've actually listened to a lot more of David Byrne's solo stuff than I have the actual Talking Heads. Rei Momo. Feelings. Look into the Eyeball. Grown Backwards. These are the albums I have. I find that some of the songs on the albums are absolutely fantastic, and some are simply total trash. It's either some kind of extreme for me.

ETA: Ok. So I guess I should buy Remain in Light.

Talking Heads are not only one of my favorite bands, but I think it's the only band the Music Board can collective agree on

But nothing has hit me as hard as the Talking Heads.

this is true. I grew up on them when I was very young and in the last 4 or 5 years have really come back around to them. David Byrne is a genius.

I like em. But I can't just listen to them on loop

they are the bees knees,

Listen to them all the time. one of my top 10 most listened to
