Why is it regarded as their worst?

Went into the Cambridge branch of Fopp today and on the wall just at the bottom of the stairs there's one of those green 'Faster' posters with the quote from Caitlin Moran.

Buying Manics pieces from US sellers on Ebay is like shooting fish in a barrel sometimes, just received in the mail an unplayed copy of the Motown Junk 12" for $18.20US (shipping cost included).
