On The Outside by Symposium.

kurtrussell [Edit] [Delete] 08:19, 20 February '09

I listened to this album for the first time in about 9 years this morning. I think it still sounds pretty good even if some of the lyrics are a bit embarrassing. I think they should have got rid of a couple of songs (Nothing Special, Stay On the Outside) and it would have been a perfect length pop/rock album. Best song? Probably The End. They should have written more songs like this and what with Killing Position, they probably would have. I'd say this album as aged a lot better than One Day At A Time as they got rid of the Ska-punk element..

I really did used to love this band and I saw them live so many times at the Reading festival. I remember the one year when they played the main stage (they were always better on the second stage) and smashed up their stuff. I remember that being funny at the time.
