I mean, "22 Acacia Avenue" is fun the first few times you hear it, but after that it just gets more and more dull, "The Prisoner" is just kinda meh, and "Children of the Damned" is just kinda terrible.
It's always been a flawed album but it's also one of the most important metal albums ever released and therefore essential to have.
