dentalplan 5,843 Report post Posted December 20, 2018 I dunno. The content - largely a breakup album - makes it hard to appreciate in the new light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't listened to it since, don't particularly want to. Think I've only seen one list with it in. No doubting it would have been in a lot more if it wasn't for what went on. It's a great album.

To be honest I'd forgot all about it until I went back to some albums from earlier in the yer before making that list. It's definitely their weakest but I still like it. It does like a big standout track like Death or Memory though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had it on heavy rotation for weeks now, Grade A stuff from the Hen lads. No one had a better opening line this year than 'I live on a mountain, the only tall structure on this planet.'
