Format:Audio CD
Razorblade Suitcase was a very important album for Bush. Their first album, the superb "Sixteen Stone" was released to massive commercial success, and a mauling from the critcs who dubbed the band "Nirvana Lite". As such, you would have thought Bush would try to distance themselves from Nirvana for the all-important sophomore effort. This makes their decision to hire producer Steve Albini, the man at the helm or Nirvana's final album, all the more confusing. You can almost see the thought process - hiring indie legend Albini should add an underground credibility to the album, but in retrospect hiring a man most famous for Nirvana's final album was not a good idea. It didn't help them lose the Nirvana rip-off tag, and like In Utero, this is not an easy listen. As such, this album had a similar effect to In Utero - it alienated a large portion of the band's fan base. This album had decent sales, but nowhere near the amount of it's predecessor. The reason for this was simple - where Sixteen Stone had a load of hits, this album had two. Only two songs, albeit two excellent songs, "Swallowed" and "Greedy Fly", were ever going to make a dent on the charts, nothing else on the album is immediate as "Everything Zen", "Little Things", "Comedown" or "Machinehead", and there's no huge ballad on this album akin to "Glycerine" from the last one ("Bonedriven" tries, but doesn't really cut it). That's not to say the rest of the album is bad, it isn't, but very little of it is particularly memorable. This is a good album, and one most Bush fans will want to own, but it isn't going to convert many people who aren't already Bush fans. Worth getting for "Swallowed", "Greedy Fly" and a number of solid album tracks.

It seems that Bush are either hailed as one of the greatest rock bands in Britain or dismissed as grunge wannabes.
In truth they come somewhere in between. While tracks like 'Greedy Fly' and 'Insect Kin' are dark and moody, with heavy guitars, 'Tendency to Light Fires' is top-notch straight forward rock, and single 'Swallowed' a very good grunge song, the rest of the album just seems to drag.
None of the tracks are truly terrible, but are merely average. They often sound too similar to each other, to the point that listening to the whole album can become tediously boring and samey. Gavin Rossdale's vocals don't help much either - they lack in any real variety, and his whine can definitely prove irritating when listened to for too long.
'Razorblade Suitcase' is not a bad album. It will definitely appeal more to some than others, and is worth a listen in case you should find out you like it.

I really liked this album and I like "The Science of things" but this album like that one needs to be developed more. The sounds improved but the songs need to be better written. Some are just droning scrapes and mutterings - which is fine but it does'nt work.
"Swallowed's" good and "Greedy Fly" is the stand out, but if Gavin Rossdale had taken the time to develop the songs more, this could of been so much better, or let the other members have input??? Would it of hurt.
I think that was the disintergration of these guys.

Every track on this album is worth listening to. I've had this since it came out, and upon digging it out tonight, Im still lost in the melodies and the beautifully dirty guitars. Read more

Just terrible
This album would count as one the worst I've ever bought. I spent a few years listening to Swallow and ignoring the rest of the album. Read more

A brilliant yet underrated album...
...from a brilliant yet underrated band. When most people talk about grunge, they suddenly get very un-enthusiatic when somebody mentions Bush. Read more

A great rock album with some classics
This album is full of brilliant songs but some are better than others. Swallowed is absolute genius as is Cold Contagious and the beautiful Straight No Chaser. Read more
