I've just been listening to this one for the first time in a long time. A great listen all the way through - great melodies and arrangements from the gently introspective "All My Life" to the post-punk classic "Lips Like Sugar". Uncharacteristically lyrically weak in a few places. I was going to nominate "Bedbugs and Ballyhoo" for the "Worst 80's song titles" thread, even though I like the song, right down to the Doors-y keyboards.
Anyone else have an opinion on this album?

Echo and the Bunnymen is one of the best new wave bands ever. I dont think "eponymous were released here in the philppines. We have other compilations though like Bedbugs and Ballyhoo and recently, Seven Seas. But i think the song contents are the same. The Game will still be my favorite Echo song.
