Fantastic from start to finish. Short, fast, furious songs with the always present slap in the face lyrics. One of t..."  [+]  Reply

"I disagree. I think each song strings together very specific moments, because they all teach a very specific lesson, or have a running idea. I think the clearest idea of this is the closing track, which is all about being somewhere you said you'd be, but then feeling out of place, and learning to..."  [+]  Reply

"The debut album by The Waterboys is actually a solo album by Mike Scott, the only permanent member of the band which has, over its history, comprised more than 30 members. Although the album features future members of the band, Scott plays most of the instruments, and several songs are solo recor..."  [+]  Reply

"As an album, I actually don't like this at all. It's just too much of the same thing. Some individual songs are great though. Nice guitar tones and melodies.

"For any fan of psychedelic electronica this record is a must listen. More sophisticated than their self titled debut, they expand and stretch the use of primitive oscillators influencing prog into the next decade and beyond."  Reply
