I liked reverberation when it came out and thought the production that it had made it sound pretty timeless. I'm not so sure about that now as to me it seems a bit dated.

Anyway, these days its easy enough to find a lot of comments online about it that suggest that if they had changed the band name it may have done some business. I'm not sure as mac's solo career seemed to be one of diminshing returns...

Mind you I still think that it had songs that were as good as either the previous bunnymen album or Mac's solo debut 'candleland'.

Interestingly, I saw an online interview with Damon Reece (the drummer). He said that he thought it needed remixing at the time to make it more contemporary sounding while Will Sergeant wanted the more classic sound that it ended up with.

That line up released two singles on their own 'eiphoric' lable after they were dropped by warners. They are worth checking out as they have a rawer and more garagey sound.
