Infamously associated with their brief, ill-fated stint on Elektra Records—who dropped the band shortly after its release—this sophomore effort is a wiry, incredibly concise post-punk masterclass. The brief track runtimes and Britt Daniel's angular guitar work capture an urgent, anxious energy that heavily foreshadowed their eventual indie rock dominance.
