Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following massive mainstream success, the Texan experimental veterans delivered an incredibly polished, heavily electronic record that confused their long-time punk fanbase. Produced alongside Paul Leary, the album leans heavily on hip-hop beats, vocal manipulation, and pop hooks, yet still retains Paul Haynes' surreal, cryptic lyricism.
