Why do I keep listening to the rereleases of these albums? It's always worse than the original. It's like movie reboots and sequels. Why can't they leave well enough alone? Instead they had to include this extra strange track where the band jokes about touching kids? Considering the next album on this List, this might be a case of ominous foreshadowing.
Other than that, this was a perfectly respectable album. Perhaps a little generic and forgettable, but enjoyable nonetheless. With some notable exceptions, there haven't been a lot of risk taking albums lately. Child molestation references outside.
Still worth listening to, but don't expect to be wowed.
RATING: 3/5
Yeah, it's a nice one. I have particularly enjoyed the rythm in "A Million Pleading Faces". Hopefully I have not heard the song you mention about molesting kids.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy for you.
