Excellent Review, One of the best I've read.

That album is an inspiration and should be the blueprint as to how bands should sound and the vibe that should be captured.

I agree with the fact that it's not that hard to write a good review of AFD these days, lol.

Same thing happened to me though as far as liking it early. I loved side 2 (or the R side for you other cassette owners) and didn't care much for side 1 (or the G side) except for Jungle until years later.

Yeah, i thought they did that, just to "give to the fans" while they were waiting for AFD to be released  Huh

What a bad ass album.  Everything from the sound, lyrics and attitude of that album was just perfect.  I don't think there has been a rock album since that comes even close in comparison.   I know albums like Appetite don't happen often, but I'm hoping the time is coming soon for another young band to burst on the scene and just give music a huge kick in the ass like GN'R did back in 87! Rock music could really, really use that...

Interesting effort, but I'd be more amused to see something new written on the Illusions, the most underrated album(s) ever made.
