Really surprising entry. I thought I'd clicked on a different record by mistake initially. That said, it does display a range that you only obtain from a fruitful career. A very pleasant surprise.

Despite the stupid name this was really well produced and really grabbed me.

I feel this has taller peaks but lower lows than the self titled record. Midge Ure remains haunting throughout. Really feels like this is what speaks to me about new wave. I second what Joe has to say about these silly extended-only versions of releases. Very annoying for a clean and original listen.

Somehow this made Weird Al better because I was like, "Hey, I know this from Weird Al!". Otherwise this thing was far too long with far too few actually exciting songs.

Some real highlights with some real pits too. I probably slice it just below average in this case.

Really didn't get on with this one, either. Mr Matthews outstayed his welcome, and also didn't really excite me.

Really not getting on with this one.

Relatively short album that wound up feeling too long. Probably really good when eating a big burger. I wasn't eating a burger.

Wasn't in love with this one. Unsure what the case is with this one, other than saying it lacked something that really resonated with me. I can't really think of any lyrics that stood out, and a favourite track genuinely required a listen back to discern them again. Definitely not bad just not for me.

Great to put on and impress your dinner party guests with your taste.
