Another one of those bands where I knew the name but had no real idea what they sounded like. I was expecting something a lot more new-wavey pop; but ended up with a blistering, yet melodic rock album that would not feel out of place in the early-mid 1990s rock scene.
The book labels this as the missing link between Siouxsie and the Banshees and PJ Harvey; I'd add to that it's likely an early blueprint for Hole and Veruca Salt. Christine Hersh and Tanya Donelly rock like mofos, moving from beatific vocal harmonies to raspy yells.
Good stuff.
