"In my opinion this is a big improvement on modern times. Dylan's production, as Jack frost, is a lot less slick than it was on the previous album. He's still relying on way too many twelve bars but he obviously struggles to write songs these days. Best of the blues tracks is the mellow forgotten ..."  [+]  Reply

"The album is basically the UK release of Louder Than Bombs and actually predates LTB by a couple of months. Both were collections of singles that didn't appear on any Smiths studio albums.

"It's barely listenable, the songs have no discernible structures, and each vocal melody sounds like a dog being horribly maimed. I mean, it better be one of the best emo records ever recorded."  Reply

"It's okay... some of the songs sound very similar. Highlights for me are Typhoons and Boilermaker. Quite like the closing piano track, it's very different to everything else they've ever done but it works for me. They'll need to diversify their sound as you can already see them starting to run ou..."  [+]  Reply

"Not as good as her debut but a good album nonetheless. The best tracks are the first 2 and the last 2. Be Careful Of My Heart & Subcity are the next best. The only track I would skip is Material World the rest of the album is good."  Reply
