User Reviews: Darkness on the Edge of Town
The Best of All Time.
If not the Best CD of all time 2nd to Born to Run. Bruce is simply the Best Singer/Songwriter EVER. Highlights are:
The whole CD.Was this review helpful? Yes - No6/5
The best album Springsteen has ever made and one of the key works of the 70s. Bleak and dark as hell. 10 songs, 9 treasures (sorry, I always skip "Streets of fire"), but the CD must be seen as a whole work. For that reason the Boss excluded some obvious great songs like "Don't look back", "Fire" or "Because the night". He did right because those songs had nothing to do with the setlist. Bruce once said about this LP that the band underplayed and he oversang. I disagree. The band never was as good as here and Bruce vocals are an incredible mix of despair and rage.
"Born to run" was a bunch of 8 songs in which only 6 worked. This time, Springsteen found the phylosopher stone. If you don't like this one, you'll never be interested in Bruce Springsteen.Was this review helpful? Yes - Nobest album ever made!!!!
This is Springsteen and rock and roll at its very best. "Badlands" and "The Promised Land" are spectacular, similar-themed rockers. "Something in the Night" and "Streets of Fire" are angry and haunting. "Adam Raised a Cain" is full throttle angst at its most vicious. "Racing in the Street" is gorgeous and unforgettable. "Candy's Room" is marvelously unique. "Factory" is simple and meaningful. "Prove It All Night" is a rare, upbeat spot. And last, but certainly not least, is the earth-shattering title track, which brings this timeless masterwork to a splendid, climatic close.
