5.0 classicxfearbefore | September 27th 10

A tour-de-force of 1980's pop with a new wave edge and the almost care-free brilliance of ex-English beat members Dave Wakeling and Ranking Roger. Nearly as good as the Beat were at their best, there isn't a moment wasted on this album from the inescapably catchy hit single "Tenderness" to the laid-back cool of tracks like "Never You Done That" or the driving, heart-on-it's-sleeve anthem "Are You Leading Me On?" there really isn't a moment wasted here. Highest recommendation for any fans of new wave, the Beat, fans of 80s music or anyone looking for an achingly catchy pop album. Oh and did I mention that Mick Jones, freshly booted from The Clash, plays lead guitar for half the album (including most of the singles)?
