Description Their third album serves up narratives that examine the realities no one wants to look at: war and poverty. The lyrics are about the government, political disillusionment, and being distracted by nightlife, consumerism, and celebrity watching. After some sound and line up changes, the band has largely abandoned their skronky, dance punk sound, but they're still dynamic, elastic, and danceable. They even sound like a pop band at times. All their changes and efforts are well evidenced on this record's twelve tracks of polished chaos. The group is as powerful and unhinged as ever.
