4.0 out of 5 stars Not their best, but very good, September 20, 2007

Guadalcanal Diary' fourth and final record is not their best, I'd go with 2x4 for that. Still, a solid album of jangly Southern college alt. rock that will please fans of early REM. Going from the harder edge of Likes of You to the jangle-pop of Always Saturday this has been a favorite of mine since it's release. Murray Attaway is a gifted wordsmith and I would also recommend his often overlooked solo album In Thrall.

This is a great album that shows Guadalcanal Diary was continuing to grow as a unit. Drummer John Poe wrote some of the better songs on this disc that rocks just as hard as any of their earlier stuff. I've never understood why "Always Saturday" was never a big hit. Check out Barometer and Fade Out as typical GD - excellant lyrics and cool guitar licks. Pick up this CD along with 2x4 and you will be happily re-rocking the '80s.
