Our Take

Release Date: October 15, 1984

Rating: 7.2/10

Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of Alan Parsons Project's "Ammonia Avenue." This album is like a strange, musical journey through a chemical plant, with synths and guitar solos guiding you through the toxic fumes.

The title track "Ammonia Avenue" sets the tone for the album, with its pounding drums and eerie synths creating a surreal atmosphere. The lyrics touch upon themes of industrialization and environmentalism, making you question the impact of human activity on the world around us.

"Prime Time" is a catchy, upbeat track that will have you tapping your feet in no time. The bright synths and lively guitar melodies give the song a sense of urgency and excitement, making it one of the standout tracks on the album.

However, not every track on "Ammonia Avenue" hits the mark. "Don't Answer Me" feels a bit too cheesy and dated, with its cheesy saxophone solo and overly dramatic lyrics. It's a bit like listening to an 80s movie soundtrack, but not in a good way.

Overall, Alan Parsons Project's "Ammonia Avenue" is a weird and wonderful album that will take you on a musical journey like no other. It may not be perfect, but its quirky charm and unique sound make it a worthwhile listen for any music lover.
