15th studio album by Neil Young is a display of his continued journey with experimental pop / rock music and a continued "lost-ness". This album is mainly synthpop a bit like Trans just without the electronic, and after which you might have thought: "Okay, nice try, or...", and then he takes on yet another lost ride into a territory where others have been and produced masterpieces as natural artists and performers of that style. Okay, it's not synthpop only. It's also pop / rock but a peculiar attempt to make a 1980s big release like a Springsteen's Born in the USA or Bowie's Let's Dance, only this is far from those apart from the production sound.
This is not recommended.
