cruz records. 006 / 12 tracks (14 on CD) / 1989
+ lyric sheet. CD/MC have 2 bonus tracks. Scott on vocals now.
Dave Smalley left the group before this LP was recorded, so he was replaced with Scott Reynolds, who is also a great singer - if not better. The band turned even more melodic on this LP; tons of catchy and intelligent tunes (She’s my ex, Mary, Fool…). Pop core doesn’t get any better than this. [10]
Wohl die poppigste und eingängigste All-Platte, es sind zwar auch wieder die experimentelleren, vertrackten Sachen dabei, dominant ist aber der melodische Pop-Punk; Songs wie She’s my Ex, Mary oder Fool sind wahre Klassiker, die Melodien fressen sich geradewegs ins Ohr. Hervorragende, intelligente Melody-Core-Platte. Auf der CD sind noch 2 Bonussongs, Carnage (ein All-typischer Pop-Punk-Hit) und Hot Rod Lincoln (witziger Country/R’n’R-Song).
