Negative Positive
Title: a sorry mess
Review: This album doesn't get any better with time. It sounds exactly like what it was. A bunch of unfocussed, disparate, directionless tracks recorded with different producers over 3-4 years . John Squire tries to cover up the paucity of songwriting ideas or inspiration with tedious bluesy guitar workouts. The classy songwriting and tight fluid playing of their debut album is circumspect by its absence although Ten Storey Love Song shows they still have the magic. Its just boring coked up r***ish on every level.The drumming is immense but the other 3 should still feel ashamed by their contributions. What a waste of a great band.
