For True Femmes Fans,

Review Score: (8/10)
If your expecting The Violent Femmes usual nervous guitar playing over Gordon Gano's voice you'll be in for a bit of a shock. The band by this time was dealing with many changes. A new record label and the loss of their old drummer (good riddance) so this album clearly shows off the imperfections of all these new things. The album doesn't show off the true talent or energy that we femmes fans know them for. It does, however, prove that Guy Hoffman is as good drummer (and even better) as Victor. My favorites songs were "Breakin' Up" which showed a more electric side of them and "Machine", a erie sound effect songs that has Gordon saying "he has a machine and he'll take over the world over" over and over again. Truely this CD is for diehard femmmes fans that welcome they're experimenting ways. (People like me:)
