This is pretty decent stuff so far. Nothing I hate anyway. Like the keyboard work on the first few tracks, and there's a good sense of energy about most of it. Quite catchy songs too. In fairness, “Song 19” is – what's the technical term? - ****, but it's very much the exception and the quality is soon restored with “I'm Not a Punk”, and really it doesn't drop again. “Mental Case” is one of the highlights of a very impressive final few tracks. Really enjoyed this album.
