Following the massive breakthrough of 'In My Tribe', Natalie Merchant guides the group through a notably darker, intensely political collection of folk-pop songs. 'Blind Man's Zoo' addresses heavy themes such as the legacy of the Vietnam War and environmental destruction over beautifully bright, shimmering jangle-pop instrumentation. It represents a peak of thoughtful, socially conscious alternative rock in the late 80s.
