 Porcupine is not a bad album; it still holds its own with those sonic characteristics that keep fans loving them.

 The sensation that remains is a slightly bitter one of a missed opportunity because the ideas were there for sure.

This review reflects on Echo and the Bunnymen’s 1983 album Porcupine as a decent but flawed effort. It praises the band’s signature mix of catchy melodies and New Wave guitar riffs but criticizes the album’s concessions to more radio-friendly and danceable rhythms. The reviewer sees it as a missed opportunity within their otherwise strong early career, while still recognizing standout tracks like 'The Cutter' and 'God Will Be Gods.'
