Album Notes & Community Reviews

Propelled by the massive international success of 'Manic Monday' and the Prince-penned 'Walk Like an Egyptian', this sophomore release transformed the Los Angeles quartet into global pop superstars. The production expertly polishes their 1960s jangle-pop and Paisley Underground origins with pristine vocal harmonies and radio-friendly new wave gloss.
