There’s no bad songs on here. It all sort of sounds like Help! to me but just with less memorable songs. It’s still a very enjoyable pop record. I think this has more folk inspiration than rock to be honest. Not a bad album at all but probably my least favourite Beatles album I’ve listened to this far.
