54/100. Indifference is really the only way I can sum up my feelings about this project. I can appreciate Bowie's willingness to experiment with jazz improvisations and electronic beats, but most of these attempts seem to fall flat for me. I will say, however, that the ambient passages on this record are pretty great. While they don't come close to the creativity and magic of those on "Heroes" and Low, they certainly do the trick of creating a relaxing, absorbing soundscape.
