This is Wire Train’s official release of a 1993 album that MCA Records paid for but deemed “too weird” to put out. The band, which got their early-'80s start on the mighty 415 Records with songs like “I’ll Do You,” had evolved musically by leaps and bounds by time they recorded this, their sixth and final album. And it smokes from top to bottom: There’s amped-up psych-funk (“Who Give a S**t," “Drive All Night”), Beatle-esque turns (“I Was Wrong”), spare R&B (“Picture in a Picture,” “She Is the World”), and sheer poetic beauty (“Enemy”).
