a perfect capture of the 1979 glimpse of new wave
though I feel XTC could have cut some numbers from this record. Each
track is extremely creative, but together they becomes too much
information if you listen through whole album. Especially since this
band makes no ballad melodies to land upon for a while... the helicopter
spins and spins in every kind of rhytm.
similar songmakers : Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, The Clash, The Stranglers, Wire

most Beautiful song: TEN FEET TALL
most Sexy song: WHEN YOU'RE NEAR ME (I have difficulty concentrating)

3 compositions
