Disagree. That album has got better with age. Standing on the shoulders of giants however...
World (The Price of Love) is decent.

See above, although thinking about it Go let it out was ok and ****ing in the bushes was a good gig opener

Disagree - this is and always has been my ‘go to’ album by Scritti Politti - fantastic from start to finish.

St Anger by Metallica was a complete and utter disaster. Borne by an inflated egos and some awful navel gazing self indulgence they thought it was a good idea to have no guitar solos and the snare drum was swapped for a biscuit tin. The outcome was an utter mess that they even accept now.
The only redeeming song being the title track St Anger itself which half decent riff and vocal refrain.

Why oh why oh why?
To be fair, that is generally a good idea...

Only if they are 20 min meanders that go nowhere!.
Rolling Stones - Under Cover. Regrettably I bought the f****** thing!
"XXXXX" and 13 other great hits - countless of those in the early/mid sixties.
It's good to get minority views on NSC though, isn't it? Even tiny, miniscule minorities...........

'I Can't Read' is a perfectly adequate Bowie song.
The rest of Tin Machine is ****ing gash.
Edit, but at.least that one adequate song more than 'Never Let Me Down', which is horrendous.

I loved the Stranglers back in the day but can't listen to them now. They sound like fledgling bellicose middle aged broflakes. Was chatting with an old mate of mine, who has a black Jamaican mother, about 10 years ago, reminding me of when the Stranglers played the Buccaneer and how uncomfortable she felt when they did 'Feel like a wog'.....So no consternation whatsoever for your selection
OK I'll give it another go. I bought it on vinyl and was shocked and disappoointed and only listened to it the once. That was, er, in about 1993
I saw them supporting The Clash at the Top Rank, and loved the semi improv nonsense (Skank Bloc Bologna etc), and also the lovely disco bollocks of later.....anyway, when I've had another listen later I'll pop back with my verdict.
I'm a big fan of Assemblage 23 but their first album, Contempt, is a bit meh. Apart from this absolute beaut

Landscape, From The Tea-Rooms of Mars to the Hell Holes of Uranus - the only saving grace on this album was the marvellous Einstein A Go-Go, the rest was drivel - ok, maybe Norman Bates was worth a listen...

Athletico Spizz 80 - Do A Runner
Edit: Actually all the tracks off that album a crap.

I have heard the 'Babylon Zoo' album.
It is phenomenally shit.
The first single, 'Spaceman' was a colossal hit ... and awful.
If success equates to good then that is an epic example.
It is proper shitehouse.
