Reviews

This is the release that marks the Cabs' transition from their earlier experimental noise & rhythm period to the more aggressive hard funk material that was to typify their sound in the mid-80s. Fans of the early stuff might be put off by this sudden change of style but this album is still regarded as one of their best. Tracks like 'Animation', 'Just Fascination', & the title track are standouts. Definitely worth checking out!
