One of my top albums of all time, easily. Should be one of yours too.T.S.O.L. were one of the first West Coast Hardcore bands around, and they fucking rule. Allegedly they were really violent back in the day, too, but that is neither here nor there. Their early albums were pretty schizophrenic from album to album, sometimes just hardcore, sometimes deathrock, sometimes weird goth rock, the whole spread. Then Jack Grisham left and they turned into some like '80's butt rock band and sucked.
But again, neither here nor there. This album, however, combines the feroscity of the early hardcore scene with the campy, tongue 'n cheek playfulness of deathrock, along with its dark elements. This is the album that got them recognized as "the West Coast Misfits" playing tracks like Code Blue about necrophilia, which will forever be one of my absolute favorite songs, and Silent Scream which sounds like Grisham just wrote while he was watching Dracula, which totally rules. Title track is evil and fast, too. So if you like necrophilia and horror movies and punching people in the face, listen to this album all of the time.
