Good point!  The album art is first rate, and rivals any of their best--it
may actually be their best alubum art. YMMV.  Kind of reminds me
of Spectres, eh?  And beyond the artwork, the budget is apparent in
the sound quality, isn't it?  This disc sounds much better than HF,
no?

Still no review yet--haven't played it enough, but I like Showtime's
use of vibrato guitar on the verses.  Some of the lyrics are really
bad, but I'm hoping they'll make more sense on repeated listenings.

I really like EB's vox on this disc.  Sounds like he's back to the old
days, vocally...
