I'd like to argue for the greatness of this album. It often gets lost in the shuffle when an overview of his work is discussed in journalism.
It contains some of his best lyrics/vocal melodies (title track, Trouble Loves Me, Papa Jack, He Cried, Ammunition), some of the best compositional work from Alain and Boz (Satan Rejected My Soul, Ambition Outsiders, Alma Matters, Trouble Loves Me), one of the first -if not the first- overt references to the internet in pop music history (Wide To Receive), as well as just blatant fun popsong greatness (Roy's Keen, Satan Rejected My Soul, Alma Matters).
I'll concede that Sorrow Will Come In The End is dreck, but hey, he more than made up for it with Lost, I Can Have Both, and The Edges Are No Longer Parallel.
Does anybody feel the way I do?
