Review of Member Advice On Fitting Smoke Alarms In The Home

No holy smoke without fire

Advantages: controversial and mind expanding
Disadvantages: short on hard facts

Considering the amount of controversy that has been caused by Dan Brown and his so called "startling and radical ideas" its probably only fitting that people interested in heretical Christian mysteries and the like get back to the source material that Brown plundered.

Having said that it sounds good, the songs are strong and Murphy's idiosyncratic vocals are marvellous. Top tunes include the hugely commercial "Blue Heart" another smash flop single for PM, a great cover of Pere Ubu's "Final Solution" and a number of slower songs such as the atmospherically spooky "Confessions" and the lovely opener "Canvas Beauty".
