's second solo album, originally released in 1986, has had a strange history in the marketplace. Never previously available in the U.S. on compact disc, it has been reissued in conjunction with his first solo album, , as , and in Japan as part of a three-disc box set. For the album's 25th anniversary, the label finally gave it a full individual reissue with the addition of a video for the title track. The music will come as no surprise to fans of either 's solo work or his only slightly less strange work with post-punk idols : it's certainly of its time, and its sound is arguably dated, but it's interesting nonetheless. the heavily episodic, eleven-minute-long opening track, starts out with sounds of industrial dub, then shifts abruptly into a sort of briskly minimalist rock, then descends into grumbling, ambient industrialism with creepily distant vocals. The ideas are strung end to end rather than integrated in any meaningful way, which gives the proceedings a strangely amateurish feel, but not an unattractive one. Elsewhere, comes across like the work of a more intellectually serious version of ; combines the sound of clanging iron bars and an electronic train engine with a mutant one-drop beat and cut-up bagpipes, and creates a stark, trancey ambience with the help of swelling samples and a robotic new wave drum-machine beat. A must for fans of vintage avant-post-punk. ~ Rick Anderson
