Reviews

    The album's great. Definitely a classic besides The Fragile, Slip or Year Zero (including "And All That Could Have Been" especially). But in my opinion, the only songs on there that I find interesting or like a lot would have to be "Mr. Self Destruct, Piggy, March Of The Pigs & Closer". Besides that, this album Is a Keeper.
