Ooooooh. Tricky one this isn't it? Definitely feels like one of those albums that snooty muso-types throw at you for "you're not trying hard enough" if you say you don't like. As if effort was something to be admired when listening to music. Almost got 3 stars because of the stunning "Venus in Furs" but I had to take it away again for the total mess that is "European Son"
