Cassette Kids Uprising Reviews

This album oscillates up and down, both in mood and on the musical scale. The guitars are so stretched out that it must be impossible to score what is being played on a music sheet. I think that is the least of concerns of the Mondays. It's all about the attitude. Pills, Thrills has bucket loads of front. It swaggers from start to finish. Walk it like you talk it. Not a musical masterpiece, but certainly an album to turn to if you want to puff your chest out.

The proof that you can polish a t*rd. One of the most over-rated bands I have ever heard, spiffed up with shiny production to sound okay. I do quite enjoy some of the tracks here, but that is more down to the various remixers and producers involved than the band themselves. Happy to leave this one back in the time it came from.
