Free Music Notes for Reality

Free Music Review: Reality never looked so good
Hit: 5 Stars

The album gets off to a great start with the upbeat rocker "New Killer Star", the quirky yet catchy guitar riffs of "Pablo Picasso", and the awesome (and not to mention appropriate) "Never Get Old". Not to be forgotten are Bowie's vocals, which still sound solid and carry softer songs like "The Loneliest Guy", and the mellow "Days". Other strong tracks include "Looking for Water", the driving theme song, and the epic finale "Bring Me The Disco King", any one of which could have been quite at home on a Berlin era album.

As for the bonus disc... it only holds three songs, which are far from essential. The remix version of "Rebel Rebel" is much softer than the original and really can't compare. "Fly" and "Queen of all the Tarts" are both ok B-side type material, but not nearly as good as the songs included on the main album itself. Overall interesting to listen to, but probably not a little disc that's going to get a lot of playtime.

Every new album from David Bowie is a treat, and "Reality" is no exception. It's all still there, from witty lyrics to great guitar playing with a dash of experimentalism thrown in the mix, Bowie is still at the forefront of his art. Even if this album is overlooked and unappreciated by the masses, "Reality" reaffirms just why Bowie has such a large and loyal following. If you get it, you just get it. This one's not to be missed.
