"Much more creative in song writing" is in the eye of the beholder. This IS the way TH could have sounded if they were into rocknroll defiant exuberance, rather than overanalytical, intellectualized, overwrought, histrionic, tweeness. Different strokes.

A 10 for how underrated (back in de day of DJ radio already corporatized) ALL of this band's songs were. More exuberance than Talking Heads, more juevos than U2. Oh well. Long live the underdogs. "Still Believe" is the song that invokes that era, 4evah

RIP - He was mixing sound at a BRMC concert I went to with NewWaveGurly - and I didn't stop to tell him how much his music meant to me. Stupid me.

One of the top rock anthems of that decade. A simple classic.
