The music isn't particularly heavy as Atrocity has ceased to be a death metal band by this point, meaning that the whole thing is carried off in an industrial style quite fitting to the electronic pop stylings of the originals, the drums in particular largely remaining unchanged between the decades. The only clues that this is a rock band are the scratching guitar riffs present in most songs, becoming more pronounced and genuinely dominant for the only time i...more

Brett Gurewitz gets some guitar solos, and Greg Graffin shows he can do mellow too. A very lousy eighties synth-pop-rock album.

Less pop oriented, varied songs, interesting music and lyrics. good production. Some will find it a bit too emo. Only a few brilliant songs

A moment when punk met new wave and we were introduced to the powerful voice of Moyet One very disturbing track full of introverted sullen themes

Awesome album, with some super heavy songs. A great direction for Ash! None

Great songs, Original Some weak links

An improvement with further power metal influence and epic songs done properly. Hammond organ and other hard rock throwbacks.
