Advantages: Still great...

Disadvantages: Not as good as earlier stuff

For some reason, this album never really did as well as Different Class, but it still remains a top drawer album.

The album's theme is probably about getting old, if anything. Most of the lyrical content is about Jarvis' fear of getting old. (Help the Aged the most obvious track here)

The additional live CD which came with the Cds re-release is a good addition to the album and is based on the Glastonbury live set of 98.

Whilst not capturing the zeitgiest of the Sheffield scene, as Different Class and His and Hers did, the songs remain lyrically sound and a definate classic album overall.
