I guess some might say that even "hardcore" fans needn't bother with the last few Black Flag albums.

Frank Sinatra’s Trilogy does have his "Theme for New York New York", which is one of those songs one forgets was recorded in the 80s.
But yes, The "Future" part is pretty wild.

How do people feel about The Burning World?
I've always thought it was perfectly fine and not the aberration that it's kinda painted as, 'Saved' is a beautiful track as is the cover of 'Can't Find My Way Home', I don't really think it's *too* overproduced.

It's one of my favorite Swans albums.

I feel like most of Lovelife could’ve easily fit on Split, obv not Ciao or 500.

Would Mott The Hoople's "Wild Life" count?
It's not a bad album, but imagine if thin lizzys third album sounded more like The Eagles. You wouldn't prefer that if you liked the other albums..

I think The Burning World is the best Swans album. That might make me a pussy, whatever.

Never heard the whole record, but that synth pop record that Jack Bruce made that was only released in Germany is definitely an outlier.
