Album Notes & Community Reviews

This sophomore effort highlights a volatile transitional period for the Boston-based band, balancing raw hardcore energy with burgeoning pop sensibilities. It prominently features the songwriting tensions between founders Evan Dando and Ben Deily before the latter's eventual departure. The scrappy production features a notable cover of Charles Manson's 'Your Home Is Where You're Happy', reflecting the subversive punk attitude of the era.
