Stupidly good!

I'd agree. I think it's their best.

I love it .
To my mind it really benefitted from the treatment it was given on the re-releases for their 25th anniversary. The little fills in the rhythm became much clearer adding to the atmospheric feel. The sound was fuller, warmer & louder.
The album cover is perfect for what is contained with & really reflects the feel of the sound.
That said, porcupine is my favourite. A dense swirling noise that marries catchy pop touches with an effort to strive for something beyond simple pop or rock.
They had a great run of four albums with an individual sound on each one.

Nice. Certainly your taste is to be applauded of course. Most ashamedly I had not even heard of Julian Cope at that point... (Rolling Stone - Issue #605 (May 30, 1991))
What are you listening to now so that I will be prepared for what I will be listening to 4-5 years from now?
Much obliged,

I saw what I think was their first London gig back in about 1979 (or thereabouts), in the basement of the YMCA Tottenham Court Road. A very memorable gig, not least because they filled the whole place with dry ice!
