Bought this recently on Vinyl From Record Shop on Hilton Street Manchester.
A Good Album with a distinctive sound of The Beat or English Beat if you in USA.
Whappen as an album is nowhere near as good as The Beat's Debut album "I just Can't Stop it".

I have been listening to this album nonstop lately. I can't believe it never made an impression on me before, in the past......

An okay album but not as good as I was hoping. The story behind it is pretty cool though:

It takes a few listens to really get into it, or at least that's how it worked for me. There were some truly amazing tracks on there and then some tracks that just made me wonder wtf they were doing there, like "Teach the Babies", "Rain Blood", or "Freedom".

The Jesus & Mary Chain - Darklands

I love their debut, so I thought I may as well get their second album.

Gave it a short listen. Seemed rather disappointing.

Every time someone gets this album, I get excited. I think I've commented on it for every person that has just downloaded this for the past 7 months. A pure classic. I find I like it so much because the sound completely surprised me...those guitars have some major crunch considering they came out of the 80's.
