Large parts of Join Hands don't work as well as they should but the parts that do ("Icon" and PARTICULARLY "Playground Twist") are all-time

xp - yeah agreed that JH feels very dour and lifeless, apart from a couple of goth bangers (hello Icon). I guess internal dynamics must have been pretty bad for them to lose so quickly the debut's incredible energy.

The two zero-vote placers also got zero last time; otherwise a light shuffling overall.

Where have all the Suburban Relapse boosters gone?

Not feeling these results. Mirage and Metal Postcard are probably the two tracks I skip when I play this. Not bad songs per se but the most conventional ones on the album.

I'm not sure how "Metal Postcard" is a more conventional song than "Jigsaw Feeling" or "Carcass"

I've always wondered how it was the only single out of the first dozen that was left off Once Upon A Time
