Suicidal Tendencies regrouped successfully for one of their best efforts on this album. It's the band's first album recorded with the addition of a rhythm guitarist Mike Clark, and their only release with bassist Bob Heathcote, who was replaced by Robert Trujillo in 1989. Mike Clark changed the band's style heavily as well - he writes much of the music for this album, and gives lead guitarist Rocky George more soloing time, thus creating another factor on this and future albums' for more Metal-oriented sound. The band's Thrashy fusion of its Hardcore roots with Speed Metal was fully developed by this point, and Mike Muir's social commentary and self-analysis were as ragingly compelling and by turns amusing as ever.
The stylistic variation gives the album a sprawling feel that might be off-putting for those who like Thrash to sound ‘a certain way’. Suicidal Tendencies never cared about convention. This band was always more interested in contradiction than purity. They delighted in juxtaposing a tough, streetwise image (shown on the album cover) with confessional vulnerability (shown in the lyrics). These types of contradictions endeared them to many people outside of the Metal scene, sometimes at the expense of people inside it.
Probably, there are die-hard Thrash Metal fans who may have missed this album, because it doesn’t fit genre stereotypes. If you one of them, listen to this album immediately, you'll love it!!
In August 2014, Revolver Magazine placed the album on its "14 Thrash Albums You Need to Own" list.
