Approve of the groove. I am playing my EC records now: listened to Trust on the bus this morning, so I’ve got a while to go (going through them in chronological ordr).
I don’t view When I Was Cruel as one of his best & I think the latest 3 albums are an improvement on that & North. But there’s nothing wrong with any of it.
Do you watch Spectacle? Like all his shite, it’s broadened my horizons & such.
