Good Pulp.

not bad...
Well, it may sound absolutely nothing like anything else the band's ever done, but this really isn't a terrible album. There's a kind of charming innocence about it that we haven't seen in any of their later work (no irony here), and while the songs aren't exactly awe-inspiring, tunes like My Lighthouse, Joking Aside, and Love Love are good enough that the Pulp devotee should hear them.

Brilliant first album
It's not the current Pulp that we're used to, but that doesn't mean it's not good. I believe that this album houses some of Jarvis's most heart-felt and meaningful singing. It's a soft listen and very worth while if you're a die-hard fan of Jarvis.

Not for post 1993 fans
If you got into Pulp with His n' Hers or the subsequent albums, you will not really enjoy this album. All songs are acoustic. Except for Jarvis, none of the current band members are on this album. While by itself it is a decent album, in comparison to the Pulp we know and love, it fizzles. If you want good Pulp, go post '93.

Absolutely great!
This deserves six stars. Lighthouse is one of my favorite songs ever. The lyrics on the whole album are top notch as usual, and the relatively lower production value is charming for a band that has come such a long way since. I'd recommend it to anyone.
