Negative Positive
Title: One more before he goes.....
Review: This album was quite a comeback for Shane and The Pogues after Peace and Love. That album had to follow If I Should Fall From Grace With God, an almost impossible task. On Hell's Ditch Shane's songwriting is back up to his normal level. From the upbeat opening of Sunnyside of the Street thru Lorca's Novena to House of the Gods you can feel that Shane had found his muse. And as Shane goes, so go the Pogues. This isn't as Irish flavored as their earlier stuff but still great party music. Shane has come out pretty much said that this album blows, I disagree with the man. I find it better than Peace and Love but not quite as goo as If I Should fall From Grace, Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash or Red Roses for Me. And it's far superior to the two Pogues albums without Shane.
Is the review positive or negative?
