When I first heard the opening 2 tracks on Core "Dead and Bloated" and "Sex Type Thing" some years after their initial release, I was instantly hooked on this band and they`re probably the grunge group that I have most fondness of. Have to agree as well, that Purple is their most complete album and their defining work with its more complex and cerebral sound, but it does take a lot more to get into than the debut. Its also an amazing contrast to the third album which is very Beatlesque at times.

You`ve done a great review here of every song as well and hopefully anybody that doesn`t know this album will check it out.
