Sometime Anywhere/Somewhere Else is a great collection of experimental songs.

I think that what DW/centuryhouse said abut SA in p.2 still holds true, let go of the past and of your expectations and enjoy SA/SE for what it is, not what you would want it to be.
Don't consider it a "true" Church album if you must to free your mind of the damnation of expectations and open it to experiencing the music it has to offer.

Also consider it in the context of what it meant for The Church as it is now:
This was one of the first recording sessions with instrument swapping (even if SK still played most of the bass and MWP most of the guitars), with the band reduced to a duo feeling more free to experiment, jamming, selecting the best from that, and just doing what felt right, musically and creatively.
In this album they just let go and allowed the creativity to reign, they called their own shots in production (Dare Mason) and recording.
So much creative freedom that Arista let them go free, but in hindsight that was for the best.
It's also where Tim Powles (miscredited as Powells) first got involved in The Church, and his contribution has really helped redefine them.
This album paved the way for the reinvention of The Church, a process continued in MATS, now with Peter back part time, consolidated in HOB, where the new reformed quartet really gelled (with Refo:mation in between cementing the return of PK), put on sort of hold for BOB, realized further in AENT and now culminating in FY.

Call me crazy, but I truly believe that SA/SE is the Church album that started them in the creative musical track that made Forget Yourself the masterpiece that everyone lucky to hear it by now says it is.

Sometime Anywhere/Somewhere Else is a great collection of experimental songs.
And it is The Church, because no one but Kilbey and Willson-Piper could have created something like this.
Some of the experiments may have failed, but the whole is not a failure, and the more polished gems wouldn't have existed without the flawed ones.

Listen to it with new eyes and discover its beauty.
