ACR 's best

McrIsRed

My favourite LP from ACR,; not as stripped down and experimental as earlier but still retaining monster grooves. This LP created a lush sound and some great proper songs rather than impressionistic tracks. This should have been the LP to make them much bigger, but as is often the case, revolutionaries don't always get there rewards.

An 80s gem

Great tracks are 2, 5 and 6. I loved this album when it came out - funky without being too funky, lots of pop too. Still holds up well.

Jettisoning the raw, chilling abandon of their earlier work, Force instead layers A Certain Ratio’s hybrid of pop, jazz and funk with shimmering keyboards and guitars. The resulting sound is one that’s well-executed and consistent, albeit lacking in potency and spontaneity; the most interesting moments are the most experimental, like the backwards bass on “Bootsy” and the strange drones on “Take Me Down.” – Jason Ankeny
