1 stars There is no denying this album had a major influence on the New Wave scene, but Japan were also distinctly different to a lot of other music outthere at the time like OMD later, for instance. Japan were an excellent band overall but Gentleman Take Polaroids represents the worst they had to offer. Very dated sounding album compared to their more vintage sound of the 80's. I find it disjointed and lacking depth somehow which is the total antithesis of what David Sylvian and vintage Japan is all about. For completionists only.
