Some words about this album

I bought this album some years ago from Black And White records in Helsinki after I had purchased my new (the current one) vinyl player. There was many years without owning any LP's or even the player, but after I had bought new player of course I needed to pick vinyls as well.

I hadn't heard this band other than by name but I thought that I will give it a try. If I remember right I heard about this band in the first place from some british couple some years ago in a bar when I asked about bands what comes from UK.

I had no clue what kind of music this is but it has been quite good album. There is some kind of old goth vibes (like in Sisters of Mercy) from time to time, semi-punk and even punkish vibes. This is a good album and I like especially the songs Stars Are Stars, Villiers Terrace and Pictures On My Wall.

Sadly on my vinyl version at least there is no lyrics printed anywhere so I can't read the lyrics when I listen this album.

Maybe in the future I should take a look if I find another albums from this band if those are good as well.
