Sometimes It Hurts To Be A Friend
This sounds like a typical sorrowful piece from Errol Brown.

That felt like a proper final track on an album.
Well, It was all fine and pleasantly predictable. It got a bit samey during the second half - I wanted to hear something a bit different from the previous tracks - but the last track sort of made up for that.
3/5.

You've dragged the album down to near-mediocrity levels overall score-wise now.

This album just popped on the old iTunes.
What a corker of an album it is.

May have made it the full marks, but the two lesser tracks on side 2.
Hmm A theme developing.

I've had a quick shufti at this thread and some of my comments are eerily similar to those I made in the HC commentary tonight.
Generally stuff about them being a band you can't h8.
And stuff like 'if you don't like this then you are ****'.
And that was on the first page.

There's no "we" in Hall of the Wendigo.
