A very jagged and angular listen. You can almost feel the elbows digging into your sides as the guitars move up and down the frets. That's the muso wank verdict. And I' not even a muso. But hey! Marquee Moon doesn't require a PhD in the Inky Press to appreciate it. It still sounds like no other album, apart from the endless post-punk copyists that followed... Stick with the best, stick with the original. Superb.

I am not a massive fan of intricate guitar work, but this album just sings from start to finish. Delicate but tough, lyrical and unique. I love love love Verlaine's voice, and his lyrics, too. There's nothing quite like this album, and that is one of the many reasons I love it.
