Everybody makes the occasional mistake / 2
Not their best album by any means, but an important one as it defined their change in direction to the electronica age. There are a few good songs on this album, but some of the B-sides to the associated singles are better. David J once said there were 29 songs written for this album with the best 10 chosen. I'm interested in hearing the other 19 as I'm certain these weren't the best 10.Anyway, the first half of the album starts OK, but doesn't 'gel' like it should. More like a collection of singles than anything else. The 2nd half is where it all falls apart as the writing just isn't there this time around, however there are some interesting sounds. Love and Rocket's 2nd attempt at electronica with the "Lift" album was significantly better.
