âHardâ is definitely the weakest of the first four albums and itâs very much a product of itâs time. The sound is more electronic and polished to the point that you might question âIs this really the band that made âAnthraxâ?â. Iâve not listened to it for a while but I remember at the time it reminded me of Heaven 17; Iâm not sure if other people may deem this a âgoodâ thing but I found it quite enjoyable. It was always going to be hard for them to better âEntertainmentâ and âSolid Goldâ as both are 10/10 albums, no doubt. Anyway, give it a try and let me know what you think.
Oh also I listened to a bit of Circuit Des Yeuxâs âIn Plain Speechâ and her voice is incredible. Will definitely listen to more over the weekend. Cheers for the recommendation!
