I think Citrus is a brilliant album. So many great, great songs.
I was disappoined by Hush. I actually heard the album live before it was released, at a quasi-release party gig in Leeds, where the songs had enough distortion and 'crunch' to balance the ethereal, soft parts - the former were lacking on the actual release, so it seems a bit meek. I do like it though now, it's just a bit too average shoegazer-ish when their unique sound of J-pop-rock (with a dreamy overtone) on Citrus was something special.
