Album Notes & Community Reviews
A deeply uncompromising release on the Factory Records imprint, this album finds the Manchester collective pushing their cut-up post-punk sound into chaotic new territories. The music is an intense, paranoid fusion of squawking saxophones, frantic slap-bass, and Ken Hollings' frantic, beat-poet vocal delivery. It is a challenging, fiercely intellectual artifact of the British post-punk avant-garde.
