Advantages: Incredible lyrics.

Disadvantages: For those who are looking for repeat of "Sixteen Stone," this is not the one.

"Warm sun...
Leery... hold me up...
I'm followed... borrowed...
Swallowed..."

While this album is a bit outdated to be reviewed, I did not want this album to go down as "just another one of those alternative albums".

This album is purely magical- never before have I heard lyrics that could tear an entire vortex of emotions apart. Gavin Rossdale is incredible when it comes to composing lyrics- I honestly bought the album at first just to read them but have since grown to savor the intense-driven music that these brits are renounced for.

"You were wide awake of me just like the English sun..."

This album overwhelmingly contrasts from Sixteen Stone in a very powerful way. Sixteen Stone (Bush's first album) was presented as love-related euphoria and then... boom! Razorblade Suitcase comes out, presenting music that expresses fiery, loathing feelings and calm, psychotic rage.

"Much maligned... the 27th letter... bonedriven... bonedriven..."

Sixteen Stone had some incredible love-related songs such as "Glycerine" but oddly, this is a follow-up on a "stoned romance gone bitter". Once again, Gavin Rossdale is backed up by a very talent group of musicians with Nigel Pulsford as the other guitarist, Dave Parsons on the bass, and Robin Goodridge pounding the skins away.

"Nothing hurts like your mouth..."
