#GreatAlbums1990s - #Elastica – Elastica (1995). If you can excuse the Wire/ Stranglers ripoffs (for which royalties were indeed paid), Elastica’s debut is a smartly played set of pop tunes with enough rabblerousing spirit (“punk” as opposed to Punk) to give, say, the Bangles or Go-Go’s a run for their money. That’s a good thing, because you need a bit of levity sometimes, and “Connection” and “Stutter” are a lot more fun than Hole or L7.
