Anyway, I gave this album a full run through for the first time in ages last night and was blown away by how great it really is! I remember when it came out I thought it was quite good but not great as I had it in my head that Washing Machine was basically unsurpassable. Now I'd rate them side by side. ATL seems to have been a really slow burner for a lot of people but is now starting to be viewed as somewhat of a 90s Daydream Nation... and deservedly so!

I loved loaning cassettes from the library, liked the romance of thinking who else had borrowed them before and where their musical tastes went.
Funny enough from there I got Dirty and Washing Machine on CD for my birthday and Washing Machine became my favourite album.
