3Great album, even better than ONOFFON. Excellent songs, amazing playing, and it kicks like Bruce Lee -- easily their hardest rocking album to date. Brilliant disc, and our Mr. Weston did a fine job on it, too. 100% Not Crap.

4WTF?! BadComrade! "Donna Sumeria" is five minutes of pure joy! Even that 60s "ooh, we need lovvvve" harmony part is brilliant!
Yeah, maybe it's not "harder rocking." I think people mean that it's "bigger sounding" than their older stuff.
NOT CRAP!

5It's pretty good. More of the same, but different. They stretched themselves a bit on this one, and I think it paid off. Bob Weston: big up.

6i'm enjoying it quite a bit, but the reviews that i've been reading along the lines of "as good as 'Vs'" are nonsense. let it sink in a little, critics..

7i actually gave away my copy of 'on/off/on' i was so horrified by it.
i don't suppose anyone here thinks the new one is an earth shattering return to form? it would have to take something pretty darn incredible to restore my faith in any new stuff this band might record. i seriously think they should have learned from the 're-united' gang of four and television albums from the 90s and released it under another name.
still a great live act and fantastic musicians but you could never convince me that is worthy of the name mission of burma.

8It's early, but I think I like this one better than onOFFon, an album I liked. Favorite song: "Nancy Reagan's Head."

9Very much NOT CRAP!
A confession: this is the only Mission of Burma album I own. I have no explanation for that.
