Stereophonics - Just Enough Education to Perform

"Costner's back and to the left, the picket fence, the better bet"

You know how I'm always saying, "there aren't enough songs about armored car drivers, who eventually rob the armored car and wind up in prison?" thankfully this album contains one. It also contains many songs about traveling, one of which is quite good (Nice to Be Out), the others, not so much. This is a very mid tempo, acoustic based Stereophonics record. This is usually the kind of songs I like from them, but not necessarily an entire album of them. "Vegas Two Times", the album's opener, is the only up beat track, but it isn't all that good. There are some good songs on here though, such as "Rooftop", but as a whole, it's kind of lacking for me, especially when compared to the band's other work.

3/5
Favourite Track- Rooftop
