Electric - in my opinion, this is the absolute powerhouse of an album; anyone who actually cares about music should have it in their collection...
This is what true hard rock sounds like...
Rick Rubin's production here is just phenomenal. The guitars are loud—honestly, I don't think they've ever sounded better—and those solos are unforgettable and packed with energy. The rhythm section hits incredibly hard... The vocals are at their absolute peak, yet somehow they avoid that over-the-top, cheesy vocal style you often heard from similar bands back then. Even the silence during the transitions feels intentional, almost like a tool for expression... It's dark. This is definitely a record you need to experience....
The Love album, recorded before Electric, is also quite solid, and while their other records have certain standout moments, they don't even come close to the greatness of the ones I mentioned...
