The music was definitely better than the singing. Tough one to stick to and ended up with a headache. I had wondered what all the fuss was about and if I’d been missing out not getting into PJ Harvey but think it would have been better to have been left wondering.

Didn’t really rate this one. Heard better.

Nothing to get the pulse racing

Completely missed this lot at the time. It’s alright but doesn’t strike me as anything special or different to many other similar bands of the time.

It sure what I just listened to here but it was terrible

Some early promise quickly descended into mid-table mediocrity

Overblown and pretentious. Just no need for it, I’m sure they have it in their locker to do better.

I guess you had to be there

So much going on here it’s a complete bombardment of the sense. Extraordinary!

Gave it a go but a real struggle.

The music is better than the lyrics but I think really you probably need to be a fan of this music to appreciate this album.

I quite like a bit of S&G but I’m not sure this album hit the heights. A few good songs but also some that I didn’t really take to.

I can see why the album is popular in certain circles but jut not really mg sort of thing.

A nice change after Leonard and some good songs

A bit too dark and slow for me.

So dull, got bored very, very quickly.

Just not really my cup of tea. A couple of alright tracks but I just got bored quite quickly.

Packed a lot in for just 22 minutes. Solid rock and roll.

Always liked this album. Not perfect but most songs I would listen to again.

Aside from providing the inspiration for a staple of the dad joke world it’s not a bad album but found myself picking up on the well known songs and not so much on the rest of the album tracks.
