4...according to .

Found this album in some boxes roughly stacked in Zavvi during a sale- liked the look of the cover and if I'm honest the song title 'weed' was a contributing factor, oh, and the fact it was only £3.

Listened to it in my car (on & off) while doing some errands on a Saturday. Listened to it all the way through- without feeling the need to skip a track, and found myself happily humming along.

I do like a reference to a recreational drug now and again- but there were just a few too many mentions. Bordering on un-cool and made me feel guilty about telling my boyfriend off for being a waster- he shares the same view as many of the songs... but I like the songs... doh.
