It's the dead centre between The Music's and The Cooper Temple Clause's debut albums. I'd recommend them but they're relatively new to me and I may grow weary of them before long, I dunno. If you find that album for £5 you can't go wrong.

I'm undecided about it yet. They're great fun live (except at the Astoria obv) and I really enjoy their singles, but I think they're a bit much over the course of an album. The relentless tweeness does my head in a bit. But perhaps I'll come round to it after a few more listens.

Hybrid Theory is sh*t, and so is Chocolate Starfish, but 'Boiler' on Chocolate Starfish is a very good song for what it is.

I've had times to make friends with it now and it's pretty good. It's not the best album I've ever heard by any stretch of the imagination, but I love the production on it. Also, it makes me want to drink red wine and/or brown spirits, and any album that makes me want to do that has to have something going for it. I might invest in Boxer at some point, although there's a lot of other stuff I want to buy first.
