I may as well bump this back up. Still the weakest of their first 4 to me.

3.5 → 4.0

A-side is great. B-side I cannot bring myself to give a shit about. Nothing bad on this though.

Album basically ends after Air for me.

I'm no longer shocked that people like this more than More songs, but I heavily judge you all for it make no mistake.

Relative to the rest of their output, and even on this album, Heaven is closer to the bottom than the top. I'd take anything off 77, more songs, and remain in light (goes without saying) before it.



But if any other band released it, it'd be their best song.



And Electric guitar is probably their weakest pre-Speaking in Tongues song to me. Not even a bad song, it's just a crazy grading curve we're dealing with here.

Yeah, Electric Guitar would be one of the first tracks I'd cut from this (and Heaven one of the last, don't think there's a single 77 song outside of the final two that I'd favour above it)

Animals is the real underrated gem here

Let's not get too negative though, this still has jams. This 4.0 isn't for pity.



Main reason I bumped this was the opener, Mind, Cities and Life During Wartime. I always preferred the live version of the latter, but this version's still great.
