Our Take

Let's buckle up and dig into this hot mess of an album, "These Great Stars Are On Fire & Fury" by Various Artists. With a title like that, you might expect some explosive tracks that are out of this world. Well, prepare to be disappointed.

From the get-go, it's clear that this compilation lacks any sense of cohesion or direction. It's a mishmash of genres that leaves you feeling more confused than entertained. The transitions between songs are about as smooth as sandpaper, making for a jarring listening experience.

The artists featured on this album are indeed great stars, but their performances here are far from stellar. It's as if they've all decided to phone it in, delivering half-hearted efforts that fall flat. From the lacklustre vocals to the uninspired instrumentals, there's not much to write home about.

In terms of production, it's a mixed bag. Some tracks sound like they were recorded in a garage, while others have been heavily polished to the point of losing all soul. It's a shame, really, because with a bit more care and attention, this could have been a standout release.

Overall, "These Great Stars Are On Fire & Fury" is a forgettable album that fails to live up to its promising title. Save your ears and give this one a miss. Pitchfork rating: 4.0/10.
