3rd studio album by Love and Rockets this time with a new producer and a bold alt. rock album in neo-psychedelia style. In the early and mid-1980s the label alt. rock wasn't really a style or genre yet, and really, this band has been one of the pioneering efforts in directing music onto new pastures. This album and the two previous by Love and Rockets has helped define a new playground for popular music if it doesn't fall within 'mainstream' genres. The album has been lauded by many critics, and I guess, because of its clear psychedelic qualities. I just don't really enjoy it as much as its predecessors.
