The Sisters were brillent in the early eightys, they were brillent in the late eightys. Something went wrong hear. F&L&A is a huge step backword after 1983's Reptile House EP. Basically you have weak songs aimd at Donny Ozmand's fan base, Wayne Hussy (or Huzzy at this time) playing like bad 12 string guitar. A band on the rocks trying to pander to get chart sucsess. Ironic as the chart sucsess came with the Floodland LP which has no real singles, and of course a reworking of the pre F&L&A 'Temple of Love'. There are few highlights 'Black Planet' is a good song ruind by a Huzzy guitar part that sounds like a Greek Restaraunt. This line up of the Sisters was week, this album shows that. It is sad then that people feel the need to copy it, even down to the metronomic guitar playing.
he's got it spot on!markfiend wrote:There are few highlights 'Black Planet' is a good song ruind by a Huzzy guitar part that sounds like a Greek Restaraunt.

The best thing about the album was the cover. Nice to know they actually took some time to write "Money" because the rest of the album sounds completely the same. Fortunately, they got it right when they released WYWH. If WYWH had DSOTM album cover, it would have been the biggest selling album of all-time.
