Hurrah!?

first 3 singles were great, the rest not as much

I like Boxed a lot, I think there is is also some really good song on there that didn't make on Sound Of Philadelphia . I don't really like their other stuff. It became really over produced. I remember I bought some single in the 90's/early 2000 by one of them called Bronze on the Bus Stop label or something, it still seemed over done, over the top. They seemed to spend a lot of time on their album covers and ended up looking like Fonzie on a lot of them.

It became really over produced.

you see .. i really love the massive production that the band succumbed to.
it's a timestamp as to how guitar bands were treated at the time to the power of xxxx
of course the debut album had the depth of history and so is all time classic for me.
that said, i have ordered the follow up album, but i have a low expectation of it ..

(but i am still very excited to actually hear it !)

.. and that underlines everything i love about the band.
the massive drum/bass, the c86 guitars ...

yep

tell god i am still listening.
