I've always hated the overall sound of Automatic, which sort of ruins even my favourite songs off it. I remember GMKU going on a bit of Mary Chain marathon a few months ago and really rating it. I just can't get beyond the overall sound. And some of it (UV Ray) just makes me cringe. Psychocandy and Darklands may have been naive and a bit obvious at times but I don't recall them ever making me cringe. Definitely their 'difficult third album', for me.
