very different from the norm. sometimes its not about what YOU think a band should be about. sometimes its about the band messing their fans a little. this isn't typical morphine. if all you can stomach is typical morphine (or typical anything) you are wasting your time and money. for those of you that are open to some cool and weird stuff, you'll love it. i promise. doodoobrad >>> atl >>> GA.

here in your living room." If you appreciate Mark Sandman's poetic artistry coupled with the murky, liquid milieu of Billy Conway and Dana Colley, this CD is for you. It contains more musical poetry (or is it poetic music?) than any other Morphine CD. Listen with the lights off; let the sounds envelop you, and you will see what I mean.

B-Sides is a great addition to your Morphine collection. Few songs on this album contain the rythmic pulse of songs from the "Yes" set with two exceptions - Most of the album consists of their cryptic passages and moody background music. While not Morphine's standard bearing sound - a solid and fun album for any fan or newbie.

for me the album is just another morphine album. by that, I'm trying to say that morphine has no bad album. this may be a b-sides work but it sounds like a average one. don't be silly, folks. don't try to find a secret message. here's the band at his best. it's not junk music, it's the old band playing as usual. spend a good moment and turn off the tv.

Morphine compiled in such a way that you would think it was a regular album, except without a song that is just there. A very deliberate moody mixture of this band's darkhorse anthems for life.

Of all the Morphine albums this by far the worst. This is the only Morphine album I would not reccomend. In my opinion YES is by far the best album. For me the albums beakdown like this: Yes is 5 stars, the other albums are 4 stars except for The Night which is 3 stars.
