Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded under the guidance of producer Felix Pappalardi, the band's sophomore effort attempted to refine their notoriously raw, chaotic sound for a wider audience. Despite the slightly polished production, tracks like "Ain't It Fun" retain the bleak, self-destructive nihilism that defined the New York punk act.
