When All Is Said And Done - Screaming Banshee Aircrew

Advantages: A Few Good Songs, Contains The Best Single Of Their Career
Disadvantages: Very Dark, Scary, Some Poor Songs

...In 1978 Siouxsie and the Banshees released their debut Album "The Scream" to the unsuspecting World. This blast of Punk inspired Rock classics was both commercially and critically a huge success. Today, "The Scream" is considered by many to be amongst the greatest Albums of all time. Such a strong debut Album would always be difficult to follow. It is even harder to follow when the Band members are in turmoil with one another, quibbling over which musical direction they should take.

Advantages: Couple of good tracks from the boyband
Disadvantages: Not keen on the cover version of father and son

...Said and done - The album is in very typical sound and style of boyzone which is very lovey dovey,soppy,with a mixture of both ballads and fantastically cheesy pop tracks such as together. It also includes a couple of covers (father & son and love me for a reason come instantly to mind) that are thrown in for good measure. Im not going to put a complete damper on this album though as there are a good few tracks,My favourites are love me for a reason and coming home now. The full track listing for the album I have is as below: 1. Together 2. Coming Home Now 3. Love Me For A Reason 4. Oh Carol 5. When All Is Said And Done 6. So Good 7. Can't Stop Me Now 8. I'll Be There 9. Key To My Life 10. If You Were Mine 11. Arms Of Mary 12. Believe In Me 13. Father And Son I felt that this was an alright debut... Read review
