Customer Review A record to drink to... This is a glorious mess of an album which is equally indebted to the Undertones as Beggar's Banquet-era Stones. The second album by this legendary LA punk band was released in 1986 and was the first for their longtime label SST. The basic sound is punk rock via the melodic simplicity of the Buzzcocks but crashing cymbals and dissonant guitar lines as well as the absolutely puzzling lines sung by Falling James Moreland with such conviction leave the band far afield of simple punk rock a la labelmates Slovenly, the Meat Puppets and the Minutemen. .
