im right with you on this.. am i crazy to hear echoes of Straight To Hell on the song Lady Boston? on second thought, dont answer thatsonnyburnit wrote: ↑15 Nov 2018, 5:25pmProbably won't be a popular opinion based on some of the feedback I've read from the first two singles released but this album upon first listen evokes a sequel to combat rock (maybe rat patrol) by way of parklife... combat rock's more dubby, moody, atmospheric stuff, nothing like rock the casbah on here but paul's bass & tony's drums are the real stars here... along with Visconti's production. not an easy listen, it's not very upbeat but not depressing either, very british.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm not liking this album as much as the first one. But Lady Boston and the Poison Tree are great songs.aza wrote: ↑16 Nov 2018, 11:09pmim right with you on this.. am i crazy to hear echoes of Straight To Hell on the song Lady Boston? on second thought, dont answer thatsonnyburnit wrote: ↑15 Nov 2018, 5:25pmProbably won't be a popular opinion based on some of the feedback I've read from the first two singles released but this album upon first listen evokes a sequel to combat rock (maybe rat patrol) by way of parklife... combat rock's more dubby, moody, atmospheric stuff, nothing like rock the casbah on here but paul's bass & tony's drums are the real stars here... along with Visconti's production. not an easy listen, it's not very upbeat but not depressing either, very british.

I thought you said you wouldn't cross the road for them.
