It was produced by Jon Langford of The Mekons and Dolf Anonymusfortaxreasons.[2] ReceptionStewart Mason's review of the album for Allmusic was quite positive, writing that the band "are something of a rarity in political rock circles, in that their albums are at least as musically interesting as they are lyrically pungent." He praised Jon Langford's production, who "gives the band a slightly more structured sound, which turns out to be to their advantage; in so doing, Langford minimizes the group's obvious points of comparison (singer G.W. Sok sounds more than a little like the Fall's Mark E. Smith) and makes them sound more like their own band." The opening track "Bouquet of Barbed Wire", picked as a highlight from the album, was described as "build[ing] slowly from a hypnotic guitar riff, adding instruments one at a time before exploding into an intense post-punk roar". The "declamatory" "Squat!" was picked as another "musical and sociological high point" while the closing track "Island Race" "ends with an industrial clanging that predates the early records by Test Department and Einsturzende Neubauten."[1] An unattributed review on The Ex's official website describes the album as the "[m]usic of malcontents, rebellion and impotent rage about everything that is wrong in this world [...] But they're quite aware themselves, too, that reality is not always black and white [...] What they lack in pure originality, gets compensated by their passion and devotion. In a time during which many of their contemporaries have switched their brain off, the primeval music of The Ex sounds really beneficial."[2] Track listing
