    Great album though this is in it's own right, the failing of 'The Endless Not' is that it just sounds like it's happy to play safe. No shocks, no surprises... and , sadly, none of what made TG arguably, together with the Sex Pistols, THEE most important force in the evolution of modern popular music.

    It sounds like creepy supper club music.

    Why people are whining about it not being as confrontational, I don't know. That was 25 years ago, what did you expect? That's not Why people are whining about it not being as confrontational, I don't know. That was 25 years ago, what did you expect? That's not to be said that it's bad - it's not - it sounds more like a Coil record, with Genesis doing vocals. It is worth picking up.… Full Review »
