I am in unfamiliar territory here, having not heard of this band, or the one in the previous entry. In addition to that, the 80s are not really the decade of music I'm most familiar with.
This was another goodie though, so again, it's been quite cool to be introduced to new bands/albums through this 'quest'.
This album is credited as being one of the first alt-country albums, and certainly I can hear the genesis of bands in that genre I enjoy, such as the Nudie Suits, or Dieselhed. The album is mostly raucous, occasionally trippy and always sonically exploratory. Genres as diverse as folk, country and post-punk collide, overlaid with slide guitars, fiddles, harmonicas and other country-synonymous sounds.
