""Dig Your Own Hole" is a masterpiece. Why ? The answer in 10 points: 1) This is the best big beat album ever made. We have never heard such a powerful mix of electro-hip-hop-rock. 2) You can dance without stopping on the first 8 tracks. 3) My body temperature rises to 39 ° when I hear the intro o..." [+] Reply

"The first big record (album) from Pulp. Songs like "Acrylic Afternoons", "Happy Endings", and of course "Do You Remember The First Time" are such classy tunes. Sounds fresh and great even now, 25 years later." Reply

Some enjoyable songs here in, f*!#in' up, over and over, and, love and only love. The band are clearly enjoying themselves and in turn the listener..." [+] Reply
