Driven by the intricate, dueling songwriting of Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly, the band's second full-length refined their knotty, unpredictable brand of alternative rock. The compositions are characterized by sudden tempo shifts, jagged guitar interplay, and intensely surreal, dream-logic lyrical narratives. It stands as a mesmerizingly complex achievement that deeply influenced the subsequent wave of nineties indie rock.
