What a debut - probably what The Jam would sound like if they were just
starting out today. Tied Up Too Tight, Hard To Beat and Living For The
Weekend are classics! |

Nice to hear a band coming out of Liverpool who are doing something
different to the others. Evokes memories of a golder era of music when 2
Tone was ruling the charts |

A band who seem to be at their best when they are moody and brooding -
they are at their best here and that is good for us. Not an instant fave
but it grows on you and worth the wait |

Don't get me wrong, this is a very good debut album but I would say it
is rather over-rated and it speaks volumes about the band that they have
released a remix of this album already. |

album is well worth a go |
