Good Points: Full of variety, great writing, great performance with comedy slant.

Bad Points: Tends to be repeitve a bit towards the end of the CD.

General comments: The Streets, Original Pirate Material - The songs are superbly written with 'real' lyrics that people can really relate to at times. I awe in amazement at Mike Skinners capabilities and the fact he is still producing great songs to date.
If you do not know the streets than you should hear song 12: Weak become hero's. The catchy lyrics are deep and meaningful, with a great melody in the backround. Everyword spoken is clear and prescise. The album's comedy slant comes from Track 11: The irony of it all. Two men from opposite ends of society meet together in the lyrics of this particular track, with some great jibes at both. It's a perfect track emphasising a good point. All the tracks deserve a mention, but the best way to describe it is to listen to the whole CD and make judgement for yourself.
