I think people tend to write off everything Bowie did after Scary Monsters/Let's Dance because the rest of his 80s career was dire but Outside is a really good album, better than The Next Day and a couple of his 70s albums. Earthling and Hours are perfectly listenable with some really good moments that make them worth owning. Black Tie White Noise is more interesting than good but Miracle Goodnight is decent.

None of it sounds like a rip off of his previous work either.
