CD Reviews

All right, Fire, you can stop any time now...
G. Moses | Men...Of...The...Sea! | 02/09/2000
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Know what this is? That's right! It's the seven hundred thirty-eigth attempt by Fire to cash in on their ownership of the early Pulp catalogue! Well whaddaya know...specifically, this set contains the It album and the Masters of the Universe compilation in their entirety. And that's all. No bonus tracks or anything. Just your average run-of-the-mill crass and pointless quickie job. Just never gets old, does it? Of course, it doesn't help that these are Pulp's two weakest CDs, either--I suppose if you're a completist like me and you don't yet have those two you could save a few bucks by buying this, but somebody needs to give the money-grubbing gits at Fire a good kicking."
A different story

"The other reissues of this material are now out of print so i'm happy to have this material all put together in one package. I'm also of the minority who feel that these early works by pulp are their best. Much of pulp's later material sounds a litte too over the top and bombastic to me. Some of the songs here remind me of a darker smiths, a little scott walker in there as well. Stand outs are little girl with blue eyes, dogs are everywhere and lighthouse. There are a few songs in this collection that don't quite come together or sound forced but the good outshines the bad significantly."

"Jarvis sings in French. This is enough for me."
