all i can say is this is rock.
10/10 Mark (June 8, 2004)
This is as mean as the velvets got ever, expanding Banana's European son to a whole album, although there's an 'island of rest' -Lady Godiva/Here she comes now-, i would've digged it even more if there was more noise. The grooviest thing i guess is that it sounds like being recorded in one afternoon - just let the tapes roll.. even though i know it's Reed's style to only make it SOUND like that, i don't give a shit. My theory is, they got sick of the mass attention after their first album release, and wanted to scare some glitter people away.

If you know this album you can review it.
