Their best, and anyone that wants to hear just how good the early 80s could get when they put their minds to it should own this.

Their best Album, John Ashton finally gets his due as THE guitar hero of the band, and provides all the firepower needed to realise their wall of noise/melody vision that they always promised since Talk Talk Talk back in '81. Criminally ignored at the time (and buried commercially by the Cure's Disintegration - also produced by Dave Allen) it's an example of why the '80s rightly stand as that "other" great decade of British Music. While they still a great band into the '90s they were never this powerful, or this vital on record again. Get it, love it, remember them as they were.....giants.
