They were one of, if not the LOUDEST band I've ever heard.

Along with the J.Geils Band, they are probably the loudest non-metal band that I've ever heard live.

Lots of good tunes on that one imo.
One on One is always a favourite of mine too, its a odd album as its probably the heaviest album they ever put out, but it also contains the ballad "If You Want My Love" and a couple of new-wave inspired pop tunes to boot and was produced by Roy Thomas Baker. It was also the first album that they recorded with Jon Brant on bass (even though Rick Neilsen had played nearly all the bass parts before he joined) Love the final cut, especially that manic final section.
