One of the most over-looked albums of the '00s. Kinesis, here, positioned themselves as something the UK were desperate for, and still are - a punk band who had the tunes to go mainstream, but were still aware and convincing in their politics. Observe "Billboard Beauty"'s take on sexism, "...And They Obey"'s furious state-of-the-world thrash, and the pure nihilism of "Everything Destroys Itself". Kinesis clearly felt they were born into "A Generation Devoid Of Inspiration", but they provided a brilliant antidote. That they split up just one album later was a real shame.
