Ash's second album (not sure why the hype sticker calls it their debut?)
saw the Northern Irish lads really hit their stride with a take on pop
punk that's filled with majestic mini-epics inspired by glam, power pop,
grunge, and even Britpop, as well as their grounding in classic punk
from the late 70s, all of which combines for an original, energetic,
and melodic sound that moves easily between heavy and light.
