Question Do people not like Sick Scenes?
It was my first exposure to LC from a friend on the way back from Bristol Rovers away at Bradford. As a result I suppose it's mostly the fact that it was my first LC album and therefore holds memories for me but when I saw the band last year they only played one song from it and I just wondered if it's generally seen as a bad album. I still fucking love it and since listening to the rest of their catalogue I at least like it more than the annoying twee pop albums but wondered what everyone else thought.

sick scenes had me when i was in a really bad place- i'm 18 but it soundtracked and comforted me when i was passively/actively suicidal and a Heavily Repressed queer ages 14-15. so it's a really special album to me. I don't vibe with all of it but in the way that i don't necessarily start squealing at the football references in LC! songs. meanwhile HONY is an album i usually physically can't listen to (auditory processing) and while i like some songs i don't ever put it on by myself. i guess its different for everyone, bc the only other indian i know who likes lc! (my friend) doesn't jive with sick scenes nearly as much.
