All of my friends like a laugh. this is no exeption. gary numan is the silliest musician ever to rise to fame. Immortalised by this album he now tries to distance himself from, cars is inevitably the song people now about, and in case there was any wonder, its this album you will find it on. SO.... is it any good? in my opinion, its ok. he is yet to gather any darkness in his songwriting, but the troubled, insecure look on the modern world is there. in my opinion, again, (i apologise for being opinionated!) it dosnt hold a candle (it is a little known fact that gary numan makes candles in his spare time as a hobby- trivia.) to his earlier tubeway ...

Products similar to The Pleasure Principle + 7 Bon...
The Sane Asylum - Blind Illusion
One of the finest and most interesting thrash performances of the eighties.
Vocals are the weakest aspect, and the band never recorded anything else.
Seventeen Seconds - The Cure
A couple of the songs don't stink... um...
Robert Smith was trying to be clever in his sparse instrumental arrangements and it back-fired!
Sacrifice - Black Widow
Early occult prog, with a fun gimmick if nothing else.
Some experiments are less successful than others, particularly the chanting to Satan.
Perspective - Jason Becker
More Jason Becker material, in spite of his condition.
Some experiments are less successful.
Goodbye Cruel World: Live & Rare Tracks - Brutal Truth
Heavy Metal - 1999
Faith - The Cure
The Cure's strongest set of songs when released, great arrangements for the most part
Primary and Doubt, while not bad songs, stick out artistically
Bleed The Grey Sky Black - Bella Morte
Modern gothic rock that everyone can enjoy, even pretentious bigots like me.
Lighter and poppier songs are disappointing compared to the more experimental offerings.
Blackberry Jams - Jason Becker
Some more material unearthed from Becker's all-too-brief musical career.
Even less consistent than the previous collection.
Bestial - Black Cobra
Highly talented sludge doom from a two-man-band.
Later songs make strange use of silence, which only gets in the way, but can presumably be skipped.
H418ov21.c - Beherit
Each song attempts something different.
Each song is an abominable waste of time.
