Dreadful album of grunge offcuts that was recorded quickly as a throwaway to use up booked studio time and only supposed to be a limited edition release. It really shouldn't count as a proper Fanclub album.

As a long time TFC fan this was a really surprise to me. Only picked it up in April and it's so much heavier than the bands later stuff but I absolutely love it. Cracking album
