Everything's Alright Forever

I'll buy that progression -- certainly their career generally speaking was letting more and more of the other sounds they enjoy seep through, however constantly framed in the indie-pop approach of Carr's songs/ lyrics and Sice's singing. And yes, "Does This Hurt?" = marvy fun fab. Martin Carr has a knack for pulling off solos I *want* to hear.

With the benefit of hindsight, I think EAF is my favourite Boos album. The last two are just painful, and Giant Steps doesn't have the same resonance for me that it used to.
