Transvision Vamp had the commercial success, the Primitives had the critical acclaim but the Darling Buds remain my favourite neo-Blondie band of the late 80s. And while many bands so rarely seem to surpass their first album, this, the last of the Buds' three studio albums is, for me, their best. The debut Pop Said was pure (indie)-pop, great if a tad repetitive, the next Crawdaddy had a dance tinge not to my tastes, but with this album they really hit the heights of greatness. Fuzzy guitars, dreamy vocals, touching lyrics, no sales. Such is the way of the world.

Rich, luscious, sweet, and hard, all at once. AWESOME.
30 Mar 1999
Format:Audio CD
They've come a long way since the first album, which was more straight ahead, harder pop. Crawdaddy, the second album, had interesting sweet and low dance melodies, as exemplified by the hits Crystal Clear and Tiny Machine, and somber sweet tracks to balance it all out. This album goes another step further with more luscious layers, a sort of Cocteau Twins touch, combined with swirling, driving guitars and powerful beats. Smashing Pumpkins apparently stole the opening of "one thing leads to another" for their hit "today." It's 6 years later and I can still listen to it all the way through over and over. They were even better live in Chicago 6 years ago.

One of the BEST albums you never heard
14 April 2007
Format:Audio CD
I have one other early album (Pop Said) but it is very simple and naive. However, this one is truly a masterpiece.I'm sure a lot of the credit is due the producer Stephen Street who really crafted a gem here. It is one of a few of my hundreds of CDs which I dig out every year WITHOUT FAIL. Every song is terrific and the album is on my top ten list. It is bittersweet that this didn't catch the praise it deserves and that this is the final album. ENJOY!!

Their final recording and probably their most realized and best work. It's another piece of proof that the Brits know how to make masterpieces.
