I would also agree that there are varying degrees of mediocrity/less strong material across most of their output. There are no poor albums as such - just albums where the quality/mediocrity ratio is more clearly pronounced.

A little detail about this opinion: Made In Usa is recorded in 85-86, but released -95. And naturally it sounds more EVOL-Sister era than nineties.
