REVIEWS
Average points: 5.16 (Reviews: 19)
******
Das wohl stärkste seiner 70s Alben.
*****
Hm, stimmt wahrscheinlich schon. Kenne leider noch nicht alle CD's von ihm (gut genug). Finde das Teil auch sehr gut, auch wenn es mir schon etwas (zu) angestaubt klingt...abgerundete 5 sage ich da.
******
Doch, das ergibt die Maximalpunktzahl, alleine schon wegen Candy's Room...
****
Das war der programmatische Titel einer Platte, deren Songs von hoffnungslosen Schicksalen erzählen..wie sagte er mal: "Der Rock'n roll ist ein Versprechen, ein Eid".<br><br>Der Rolling Stone nannte es eines dieser Alben, welches die Art und Weise, in der wir Rock & Roll hören, grundlegend verändert. <br>Unter Springsteens Fans ist es ein absoluter Favorit, manchmal wird dieses LP aber etwas überbewertet. <br><br>„Darkness" enthält absolut keinen schwachen Track, dafür 2 der besten 20 Springsteen Songs aller Zeiten.<br><br>Es ist seine beste 70er Platte..der Schnitt dennoch nicht höher als 4.5*<br><br>

Mein Lieblingsalbum vom Boss.
******
einfach nur schön<br>racing in the street ist vielleicht der beste song von springsteen
*****
Zusammen mit "Born To Run" wohl sein stärkstes Werk....<br><br>Wie remember schon richtig anfügte, kein einziges schwaches<br>Stück auf dem Album......<br><br>.....die Stimmung der meisten Songs ist zwar etwas gedrückt<br>(die USA befanden sich Ende der 70er Jahre in einer<br>schweren Wirtschaftskrise), aber nicht hoffnungslos.
*****
Sehr starke Scheibe, die sich nicht hinter dem Vorgänger "Born to Run" verstecken braucht. Knüpft musikalisch deutlich daran an. # 5 in den USA und mit 3x Platin ausgezeichnet. Damit baute er seinen Status als kommender Superstar weiter aus.
****
A solid effort with some real standouts. At some points the vocals really get in the way but he sings with such emotion and pain that it's easy to put that aside. The instrumental side of things is spot on as well. My favourites include: Racing In The Street, Badlands and Darkness On The Edge of Town.<br><br>42.5/60
*****
sehr gut, ohne Durchhänger
*****
Sein viertes Album, 1978 erschienen ist auch mein Lieblingsalbum vom Boss. Mit 'Badlands' ist auch mein absoluter Springsteen-Favorit enthalten.<br>Toll auch 'Prove It All Night', The Promised Land', 'Candy's Room' und der Titelsong. <br>Aber auch ansonsten kein Füller nur gute Ware.<br>Meine Bewertung: 5*<br>
*****
Vorzügliches Album.
*****
Für fünf Punkte reicht es knapp.
*****
Ich finde es teilweise anstrengend, dem Boss lange Zeit zuzuhören, weil in einigen Alben doch viele Lieder gleich klingen und seine Stimme bekanntlich nicht die Beste ist. Aber dieses Album hier finde ich wirklich angenehm. Die Abwechslung zwischen schnellen, rockigen Stücken und ruhigeren und bedächtigen ist hier absolut gelungen. Der gute Bruce arbeitet hier mit mehr Feingefühl, sodass der Nervfaktor für mich ausbleibt. Und mit "The Promised Land" ist hier auch noch einer meiner Boss-Favoriten drauf. Das Album werde ich in Zukunft definitiv öfter hören!
****
Nach dem Durchhören aller Lieder komme ich zu einem Durchschnitt von 4,5. Schwanke zwischen vier und fünf Sternen. Bleibe bei 4. Ein befriedigend- bis gutes Album.
******
Great album!
******
Seine beiden ersten Alben wurden ein Achtungserfolg in den USA und bereits ein Hit in Schweden. Aber erst mit "Born To Run" gelang ihm der Sprung in die Top 10 seines Heimatlandes und in weiten Teilen Europas. Natürlich wollte man diesen Erfolg gerne wiederholen. Was, soviel gleich vorweg gesagt, nicht so ganz gelang.<br><br>"Darkness on the Edge of Town" malte ein düsteres Bild von Amerika als sein Vorgänger. Es erzählte von hart schuftenden Arbeitern, die vergeblich auf den verdienten Lohn warteten und von Verlierern. Sein musikalischer (Unter)Ton war entsprechend dunkel, gequält und melancholisch.<br>Aber es enthielt auch unsterbliche Melodien, so z.B. in RACING IN THE STREET.<br><br>Der Musikexpress schrieb damals vom Comeback Springsteens, von dem man nicht angenommen hätte, dass er (so) zurückkommen würde. Dabei wagte er gerade einmal eine dreijährige Schaffenspause. Angesichts der Songs schrieb man von Depressionen u.ä.<br><br>Für mich stellte das Album das erste Zusammentreffen mit dem "Boss" dar. Einige meiner Schulfreunde waren begeistert von "Asbury Park"; andere eher von "Born to Run". Ich kannte beides nicht. Und so wurde "Darkness on the Edge of Town" das Initialalbum für mich und ist heute ein liebgewonnener Freund in meiner Sammlung.
****
Bruce Springsteen ist ein Geschichtenerzähler, aber gesanglich und songtechnisch ist das für mich nicht übermäßig interessant. Das Image von Bruce ist ja auch irgendwie das von einem bodenständigen Arbeiter, einer von uns, der sagt was Sache ist. Ich höre aber lieber Songs, die etwas Fantastisches haben.
******
Ook dit album van deze legendarische artiest is prima.
