It's understated and in your face at the same time.

It's experimentation is wild and unmatched for the time.

I can't think if another album that sounds like it.

The production is fine.

Lou Reed is a terrible singer but he's more effective than the majority of other singers.

The drone elements and percussion pulled from Theatre of Eternal Music.

It sounds 0% like Lulu.

The soft moments are very beautiful.

The harder moments are raw as **** and have explosive energy.
