Some of their early stuff is alright - over-rated to fuck though.

Modern World :shock: - widely acknowledged (even by the band themselves) as 'patchy' - but, each to their own.

your crazy if you dont like the modern world, ive never understood why people criticise it, makes no sense. its full of classics. in the midnight hour, the modern world, i need you, here comes the weekend. i honestly i mean honestly dont understand why its got a bad rep.
