"Thank Christ for the Bomb" was the group's first commercial success (reaching 9th place in the UK Albums Chart).
On
their third album, Groundhogs, the band moved a bit away from blues
rock. The climate of this album is closer to hard rock. However, you
have to give back to the band that it was on this album that they
finally showed their style. The person of Tony McPhee and his
recognizable timbre and his style of playing the guitar were of great
merit.
The album starts with the song "Strange Town" where, instead
of the chorus, the musicians used an interesting riffing style and
instrumental slowdowns. In fact, the entire front page of the album is
exuberant rock based on guitar performances. The exception is the title
piece, consisting of two parts. A melodic song with an acoustic guitar
and a fully instrumental part with drums and vocals. The flip side of
the album is still great guitar parts. Noteworthy is the fun dynamics in
the songs "Garden" and "Status People" where the verses are slower and
the chorus very expressive.
