    Unlike anything else
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2004*

When "Rattlesnakes" was first released in 1984, just about every music critic around called Lloyd Cole "The Next Bob Dylan." Sadly, Lloyd Cole couldn't match Dylan's longevity. Still, he flirts with perfection on "Rattlesnakes."The images are amazing: "She has cheekbones like geometry and eyes like sin," or the perfect simile: "She looks like Eva Marie-Saint in `On the Waterfront.'" Anyone who's seen that film knows how angelic a vision that was.Some of the songs show Cole's dark sense of fun, sort of like his friend/competitor, Morissey.  Still, when the final strains of "Are You Ready to Be Heartbroken" fade slowly away, you can't help but remember every ex- you've ever had, and wonder why you were ever surprised that relationships end badly.Lloyd Cole showed some flashes of brilliance on his next two albums with the Commotions--especially on "Mainstream"--but he could never top "Rattlesnakes."  Hey, who could?

    Listening to Rattlesnakes will make you smarter
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2007*

I first bought "Rattlesnakes" when it was released in 1984 and immediately loved it for its catchy songs and intelligent lyrics.  While Morrissey was introducing his gloomy following to Oscar Wilde, Lloyd Cole had his listeners finding information about Truman Capote, Norman Mailer, Simone DeBouvoir, Grace Kelly, Greta Garbo and Eva Marie Saint.  This album will make you smart if you care to understand all the literary and cultural references.  What exactly is a "Grace Kelly car"?  How do you know if you're "looking like a friend of Truman Capote/Looking exactly like you are."?  Lloyd Cole lyrics are smart, funny, clever and deep.  It is not surprising then that Tori Amos covered the song "Rattlesnakes" on her "Strange Little Girls" album or that Camera Obscura wrote the song "Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken" in response to the closing track "Are You Ready to Be Heartbroken?"  There is not a bad song on this album.

I played this album to death, it literally died in my tape deck and my many flatmates all know the words to each song as well! couldn't believe i could get it on cd, great album from a very talented and unabashed lyricist who had some weird relationships to base his songs on - makes you feel quite normal. great band to back him up - a match made in heaven! i would definately recommend buying this.
