Not a fan, but Remain in Light is pretty good. Fear of Music is disposable imho.

Those are my two favorite TH albums. Very hard to pick a favorite b/w those two. Heads - Fear/Tails - Remain.
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Both are fantastic. Amongst my favorites of all times. I can't decide.  I love their first four albums. Heart

Both are 10/10s for me, no doubt, but I feel Fear of Music is simply a more consistent and well paced than Remain in Light.

Darn it ... ah ... Remain In Light is consistent throughout, but some of the songs on Fear Of Music just kick ass.

Fear Of Music ... just because it's already losing.

I never thought of checking out Talking Heads but I came across Remain In Light and I was very very impressed. Fantastic album!

Remain in Light is much tighter thematically speaking, although the high points of FoM are my favorite moments by the band.   The decision was made easy by the fact that "Heaven" is on FoM, and I absolutely detest that song.  So - Remain in Light it is.

Both produced by Brian Eno and arguably the band's artistic peak, which one of these fantastic albums do you like more? I go for Remain In Light myself, they peaked here me thinks.
