homestead. hms 102 / 10 tracks / 1989

+ printed inner sleeve. Drummer Seth Harris later played in Kepone.

Similar to their previous LP; gloomy post/art punk, but they've added an aggressive, stomping Big Black edge on some tracks, so, overall, this is not as dragging and depressing as The Pretty Song. Another good LP, but it's even harder to get into than the previous one. [7]

Ähnlich wie die vorherige LP; düsterer Post-/Artpunk, bei einigen Songs allerdings mit einer aggressiveren, stampfenden Big-Black-Kante, so dass dieses Album im Ganzen etwas weniger schleppend und depressiv wirkt. Wieder eine gute und originelle Platte, aber noch unzugänglicher als die letzte.

Tracks: listening to sally / absolve / following footprints / swing it - interlude / skippy // salty tears / so anyway / thankless job / familiar and plain / break the ice
