Their last pretty good album me thinks

So bad it is funny, Soundtrack To A Generation especially so, but some dumb part of me enjoyed it.

I don't remember a lot of this album but the fact that the production was pretty solid. The vocal performance and the lyrics were pretty forgettable and towards the end they don't even try more stuff. I often confuse Dare with another from Talk Talk, which has really good synth work and catchy tunes. I guess synthpop wasn't meant to be in the 90s. It is what it is.
