Couldn't really get into this one. It was ok but we've had some others in this genre I liked a lot more.

More my taste. Raw, punchy, and definitely more punk. Much catchier songs and more to my liking.

A bit too mundane

I may be biased from growing up listening to this band, but so be it. A lot of bangers on here for me, I can't not give it a 5 because I know i'll listen to this over and over again

English punk rock. Ugh

sounds alright but overall rather generic for the period

Some brilliant tracks on this album. Love Paul Weller.

Mix of punk, new wave , and 60s rock. Driving baselines.

Really enjoyed this album - you could definitely hear the post-punk influences of the time. There was an element of Joy Division, but with a stronger emphasis on melody and catchiness and the dreariness removed.

not bad for post-punk

Good album. I only knew the hits previously, but liked the whole thing. Was expecting it all to just be straightforward vocals, guitars, bass and drums, but there were a few other interesting instrumental and noise-making elements in there. Solid songs - well structured, nice melodies, some great poppy hooks, good lyrics. Cool production as well, and the individual instruments all sound great. Would happily revisit this one.

It was good but nothing life changing

OK. Nothing special.

Loved Pretty green and the overall vibe. Got a bit repetitive

Close to peak Jam.

I think my parents would enjoy this...

Standard, enjoyable dancey post-punk album

First time listening. Some catchy tunes that I’d listen to again.

Muito bom! Rockzinho bem tocado, baixo rítmico, bateria seca, mas marcante... separação legal de instrumentos e vocal coerente. E umas sonoplastias legaizinhas que "diferenciam" as músicas de outras similares. Gostei!

Achei um álbum bem mediano :( Só uma música me chamou atenção pelo baixo que era bem presente.

Album com a sonoridade da época, interessante.

Super cool vibes off of this one. Pretty Green is a world beater.

Innocent album

A perfectly fine rock record with my only question being, "Why is this here?" It's alright, but I don't see any reason this should be on here. It's Stones-esque, Who-esque at certain points, but it's just pretty boring, if competent. Favorite tracks: "But I'm Different Now", "Set the House Ablaze"

Nifty record! I didn't make the connection with Paul Weller and feel incredibly stupid, but good album overall.

2/5 Fun and whacky. Standout Tracks: Monday, That’s Entertainment, Dream Time, Man In The Corner Shop, Music For The Last Couple
