Without the intervention of work colleague Robbie, this would have passed me by.
I have their first two, from the late 1970s, but haven't listened to any of their output since. Those two, Pink Flag, & Chairs Missing are great early Post-Punk albums.
This one, from January of this year, is significantly different from their early output. Age seems to have mellowed them somewhat, but they haven't lost all of their Post-Punk intensity. The sub two minute songs are gone, though, and the longer tracks give the band room to stretch out a bit more.
A touch of Psychedelia creeps in as well, mainly in the vocals.
Good album, straight onto the Buy List.
AllMusic 3/5 stars.
