This and Mer de Noms are 10/10 albums for me. Unfortunately, I was not into any of their following albums. And I say that as someone with an apc tattoo mangled within my arm somewhere in there. Such a great first 2 albums though. I've seen them live a good number of times amd they're always fantastic. They have a live version of their first 3 albums that are incredible too.

I have tickets to see them the first time after being a fan since their first album. Good to know the show is excellent.

Oh man. I bought this CD in a store over 20 years ago solely because I liked the cover. Never heard of them before that day. Super glad I did. Think I still have one of their vinyls kicking around here somewhere.

One of the first cd's I ever bought was this album (disc)

I remember leaving during lunch at highschool (a dangerous mission) across the interstate and into "On Cue" or was it "que?" (later to become 'Sam Goody..' after the manager was busted for selling the fun kind of mushrooms)

It still remains one of my most favorite albums, full way through; along with 'Dark Side of the Moon', Opeth's 'Lamentation" & Roy Donk's "Best of Roy Donk: Greek Lips Comedy Hour/Comedy Tuck-tuck - Featuring: Paul Bufano"

On Cue and Sam Goody were owned by the same company, Musicland. I worked at Media Play which was also owned by the same company and it all shut down shortly after I moved away. Musicland got bought out by Best Buy

It was pretty awesome, great employee discounts, good managers, fun coworkers

Nice. What of its pros and cons do you think about most and what was your second choice?
