Good

With no guitars and a half a set of bass strings, Morphine managed to rock harder than most of their fret-bound competition while retaining the slippery nocturnal undercurrent that would become their signature sound. With former Treat Her Right guitarist/vocalist and front-man Mark Sandman Morphine combined blues and jazz elements with more traditional rock arrangements, giving the band an unusual sound. Mark Sandman sang distinctively in a "deep, laid-back croon". Sandman may have died but this album arises again and again harder and stronger! All the accolades and success that Morphine earned in the 1990s are rooted in this indie debut album.
