I think they were just really on top of their game when they made this, and I guess I'll also have to check out Razorblade Suitcase, which I haven't heard but like a few songs from it. I'm glad to see you like it, but I would disagree, I think it's one of the few great albums you can enjoy from beginning to end.

Oh don't get me wrong, I most certainly think you can enjoy it from beginning to end. No doubt 'bout that. But I wouldn't say that's because all of the songs are above par; I'd say that's because the production is top-notch. The sound created is just precisely the Nirvana-style grunge ideal, it hits the nail on the head - in fact, although it's a blatant rip-off, I'd argue that here it's done even BETTER than Nirvana did it themselves imo. Though saying that, I think enough of the songs do not survive off of their own strength.
As I say...it's a *good*, rocking album! And someone with even a passing interest in grunge music really OUGHT to afford it some serious damn attention!
