If im not mistaken its Marshall's first album. I do think he adds a heavier rock sound to the band. Really rate him. Maybe its his influences, changing the creative input. Fantastic album that changed the direction after SB and carnival. Although to my mind every album builds on the last.
Hala (from the Anglo-Saxon word "halh", meaning nook or remote valley), until it was gifted by King Henry II to Welsh Prince David Owen and became known as Halas Owen

Totally agree with this - think it changed the dynamics a whole lot.

this is why this band is stunning. because keeping it in the underground in the end they always made great music. I cannot recall anything which I trulyt do not like beside some cheesy choruses in Between Wine and Blood. Every time is the same. With every album. So I prefer to wait for years and then listen and read something worth the money and the time. and it is has  been like that since I am 18 and <i am 44. Plus a few more things I have in common with the band and Justin especially. We both studied at the same university (but he stopped and never finish his BA in Peace Studies in Bradford because of the band.....), I love Bradford too where i Lived one year and my wife several years for her Phd (same university and same department). We met Justin and Joolz there the first time many years ago and since then we are in touch or we meet after gigs, I mean,,,,,,,,,,,this is not justa  band. This is like family to me.

Cliff's bass playing was awesome, a truly talented, sadly missed player. I was lucky to see him play a few times and met him a St Georges Hall in 86! He was dead 3 weeks later..........
Metallica actually rescued NMA when their bus broke down in Canada or Northern America. Gave them a lift to the services so they didn't freeze to death. I'll try n find the clipping........

did you find the clipping about Metallica saving NMA?

I admire your attempts to revive the forum, but at the same time, an album title springs to mind ---
