I always liked this album, love the production, or the lack of it really. Sure some songs sound same, but the dynamics of the songs are just amazing. It's a steve albini album as much as it's a bush album. I in fact listen to this more than I do to sixteen stone.

Razorblade Suitcase was really freaking bad. When Bush came out, I loved their sound ... I mean, sure, I was young and stupid, but can you blame me? Most of Sixteen Stone was good for that type of thing. This album, though, was just awful. Sure, "Swallowed" was OK for an alternative single, but this version of "Mouth" is just miserable. And I think Gavin's lyrics actually got worse on this album, which is hard to imagine. I don't know what made me think of this album, but I suddenly did think of it and here I am, explaining my vote. This thing sucks. Stick to Sixteen Stone if you insist on listening to overproduced grunge-by-numbers that offers absolutely no surprises.

Yes, it's bloated. Tracks like Mouth and Bonedriven make up for the bland ones. If they could have cut this down to nine or ten songs, this seriously could have been a solid four at least.

The follow up to the monumental commercially successful Sixteen Stone still elicits divisive comments. The production is comparative rawer, the lyrics more abstract and song structure harsh and unpolished. Swallowed and Mouth are either interpreted brilliant or simply lazy. Judge for yourself.

What a roller coaster of an album. Razorblade Suitcase ranges from truly amazing to downright boring. The sound is raw, even abrasive at times, and Gavin's lyrics are still enigmatic. Sit through all the filler and you'll find some gems.
