the first lp by this legendary KC/lawrence KS band........powerful noisy groove with a few grunge tendencies (steve tulipana's vocals especially) not quite as ferocious as"in a perfect world" but still pretty aggressive and ugly.....they started in 1989 and to my knowledge are still a functioning unit, despite the decade long hiatus since 2001's "the shattering" although im more of a fan of the first 3 lps more than the direction they took on the shattering, everything theyve recorded is better than the offerings of most bands.....love to hear new material from them, especially after going on a week long binge of their earlier stuff....criminally overlooked.....in the same league as craw/dazziling killmen/today is the day/jesus lizard as far as influential bands go....
