A snog on the rocks

"Despite the overwhelming silliness of much of A Snog on the Rocks, the strength of the (at times) complex arrangements and the quality of the performance always stop the album from descending into musical cabaret. The apparent throwaway, introducing-the-band number "Crackers (Fer Yer Knackers)" is a case in point. Cartoonish samples, vocal approximations of Woody Woodpecker, and curious character sketches of the band members notwithstanding, the song oozes a tight, funky swagger that makes it completely addictive. And therein lies the paradox of Head. A Snog on the Rocks provides incontrovertible evidence that the group could have been huge. But the album also suggests that the band members perhaps didn't care, preferring to please themselves with idiosyncratic songs that often came across as impenetrable in-jokes, rather than fully focusing their talents on significant commercial success."
