3.6 - I remember NME or some British music magazine fawning over this record with bold superlatives, claiming it as the "best British rock" or the "best rock period" or some such. The few songs swirling around failed to grab me and that's how I felt after listening to this album. I bet these guys put on a spectacular live show and I can imagine a packed venue filled with attractive people dancing joyously. I just never connected with this prince of the hooligans persona complaining about nightlife and how girls can be a drag.
