British alternative rock band New Model Army formed in 1980 and this is their 2nd album. It contains very 80's style British dark suicide rock very typical for the times. No high class production, just a very simple spacy sound with much bass lines as main riffs instead of heavy guitars. An album to listen to the lyrics and think about everything thats unfair in the world but also an album to play at a party with fellows born in the 70's, like me. 2 or 3 songs are okey to listen to but an whole album gets to much since the songs are pretty much alike eachother.
The album reached nr. 22 on the British charts. Drummer Robert Heaton died of cancer in 2004, only 43 years of age.
