The forum in which all human experience resides. Especially for fans of the now-deceased original Hall of the Wendigo. Still Number One with the core demographic.

It is over.
That was a very good album that followed the Jam template too closely for them to ever hope to have actual success with but it was enjoyable from start to finish and they all clearly knew how to do their jobs.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

I will give that a solid ★★★★.
It was lively and entertaining throughout, despite it's nu-wayve limitations stylings-wise and similarities to other bands I like less.
I found it as an whole quite charming.
After a whole day of watching very dreary, disappointing football matches it has cheered me somehwat.

This sounds like that Classical thing.
The Iliad?
That thing the Move had a hit with.
Blueberry Hill?
Whatever Classical thing this is based on.
