John Staley Came to pick up a single off the album... noticed the album cost $5. Steal!

lauraj1801 Awesome post-punk with such a great 80s sound, like a mix of Siouxsie, Martha and the Muffins, The Selecter, X-ray spex. Makes me want to DANCE! Favorite track: Real or Not.

Another supercrush / I can’t control it I want another heart / And so I stole it The way you look at me / so deep into my eyes You’re not like other guys I know too many people / You are the one I see I’ve got you in my life now / It’s kinda scaring me Scaring me, scaring me / Oh I wanted you to see you to see Everything that we could be we could be / And I really want it please You’re sitting next to me / I get a rush It’s clear to all my friends / I have a crush The way you look at me / So deep into my eyes You’re not like other guys I’m feeling kinda funny / You text me late at night We are connecting always / Connecting all the time Scaring me scaring me / Oh I wanted you to see you to see Everything that we could be we could be / And I really want it please All the time all the time / You are always on my mind on my mind And you’re really like my type like my type / And I’m gonna make you mine (I want it, I need it, she’s got it, I want it, I need it, she’s got it, I want it) All the time all the time / Oh I wanna make you mine make you mine You are really like my type / I can’t get you off my mind

What a GREAT album! It has been a while since I found an album that I could listen to from beginning to end without skipping. Classic Ian MacKaye vocals. Amy Farina absolutely kills it on drums. I hadn't heard of Joe Lally on Bass, but really enjoyed his singing/bass. I highly advise checking this out. You'll get hooked. I love "Clean Kill" but "BQM" does it for me (love the beat). Congrats Coriky! Nicely done! Can't wait to see you live!!! dabeave666
