Utopia
Oblivion
UTOPIA Gets their POV across
Review Score:
(8/10)This re-issue represents the compilation of two of Todd Rundgren and Utopia's best later-period recordings (early-to-mid '80s). I especially liked the 2nd of these, "POV," as one of the bands most creative and heavy-duty recordings. The songs are rich in thought and angst for the most part - try "Zen Machine" on for size for a good headrush!
A bargain at twice the price. The repackage has great songs, production, and enough lyrical content to give one serious pause. And like the majority of Rundgren's best work, he absolutely tears it up on guitar. If you like sophisticated-yet-accessible rock music, then Dawn Atom says 'check this out!'
