The riff game here is fuckin SWEET

I always assumed this would be a little zanier on the basis of the album cover/name alone but tbh it's just really well made slightly gritty grunge rock and I dig it

Whether you need therapy or not is the individual's choice

One of those albums you really need to be exposed to at high school to fully appreciate it. Later on, it can still trigger an adrenaline rush while driving, but nothing more imo.

Well, for me I followed them a long time so they're quite a big band from my youth and beyond.



They're a band I know ten albums from really really well and there aren't so many of those.



I do agree though, if I'd only found this band arriving on Sput aged 35 I have no idea what I'd have made of them.

I was on board from Nurse.

Blasting out that intro like an absolute lad in 1992.

Nurse used to get played in the school form room and I had heard the name but I only got on board with this album and for whatever reason I never went backwards to pick up 'Nurse'.



So until a few years ago I just knew the two well known tunes from that one particularly well.



I played Troublegum, Infernal Love and Semi Detached to death, a little less bothered by Suicide Pact and what followed but I'd still check out the albums but didn't purchase another one until 'A Brief Crack of Light'.

I was introduced to them by this album, worked my way back to Nurse (that video of Teethgrinder still rules hard) and even to their (official?) compilation Caucasian Psychosis, which I was really obsessed with. Infernal Love was a letdown at first, but grew on me, I even lost a tiny bit of my tooth during the pogo when I saw them on that tour. Maybe I’ll check Semi Detached, after all, Summer’s coming.

Semi Deatched has its moments, it was definitely a reaction to Infernal Love and going a step back to something more like Troublegum again. Then Suicide Pact is quite strange, them trying to do a gritty album.

And their Born in a Crash EP is awesome too.
