I’ve always liked this album more than I should. A friend once described it as an album you and your mom can connect over liking. Debuting in 1998, it seems like it paved the way for bands like Coldplay. There are a few tracks on here that shake off the 1990s drum textures and maintain some modern relevance, “Say Hello and Wave Goodbye” and “This Year’s Love” for example. I hate that this is hard to hate… but it is.
