I’m surprised to see no reference here to the greatest review this album received. (I may be misreading - the reviews only go back to March 2023 in my browser). Nigel Blackwell of Half Man Half Biscuit was so appalled by this record that he wrote the scathing “Shit Arm Bad Tattoo”. It is deliciously scathing, but the second verse always fills me with joy. ‘If you're going to quote from the Book of Revelation Don't keep calling it the Book of Revelations There's no "s", it's the Book of Revelation As revealed to St John the Divine See also Mary Hopkin She must despair.’ To me this album sounds like the tape was left running during a beery rehearsal. How it became one of the 1001 albums I must hear before expiring, I don’t understand. And I’ll be especially miffed if Achtung Bono isn’t on the list.
