I enjoyed the album and there were a lot of cool riffs and moments. I love the riff on Friction and the bridge on Marquee Moon. Apparently it was rated very highly by others. Although I can see how it is held in such high regards and how classic of a punk rock album it is, the only thing really bringing it down to a 4 is that I don’t love the album sonically.
