Title: Cure for your ears!
Review: I hope that "someday they'll find a cure for pain" but in the meantime you'll have to settle for this record which by the way is damn good! Morphine are NOT the quintessential rock band. Why? well, instead of using the usual triumvirate guitar-drums-bass guitar they opt for a more uncanny instrumentation: drums-bass and saxophone. The result is so good that it has to be heard to be believed. There are uptempo, jazzy tunes (like Buena) and bluesy melancholy numbers (such as the title song). I don't know if their other albums are at least nearly as good but this is one of my fav records for the '90s (Along with the likes of Don Caballero, Arab Strap, Tortoise, etc...)
Is the review positive or negative?
