What can you say about this 3rd album by the then Glasgow post punk band??. I Travel is like some skewed electric disco, where Today I Died Again is Banshee-esque and hints of early goth. Theres oddities on this too, Constantinople Line is wierd aswell as out of place on this album, it would have been well positioned on the previous albu, Real to Reel etc..
I don't think the band were clear what direction they needed to take at this point, punk had died out, they werent full on doom and gloom and they never looked like taking a mellow stab at new wave pop, well not until New Gold Dream in 82.
Nethertheless a great album which stands the test of time even now, 26 years on!!!!!

Hi Si
Liked your rant on bands you hate, not sure if Rolling Stones would meet with total approval though. Good call on Empires and Dance. Have no longer got a copy, but some good memories of it. Also good to see 'Boy' in there , however i'm more of a Joshua Tree man myself. Amazed and jealous you've still got loads of hair. ...Ken
