专辑介绍

by Stephen Cramer

By 1997, Philadelphia's the Delta 72 had cemented themselves as leaders of the frantic R&B-based punk scene, gaining new fans across the world with their energetic live shows and the diverse sounds on their records. The disc begins with the sampled statement, &Ladies and gentlemen, it's star time!& That opening line of &Introduction, Pt. 2& gives way to Sarah Stolfa's soulful organ, chaotic guitar riffs, and Gregg Foreman's punchy vocals. Through songs like the funky &Floorboard Shake& and fuzzy stop-and-start atmosphere of &I've Dreamt of Leaving Ever Since You Told Me,& the bandmembers made it clear that they were not hesitant to take chances. The blistering and bluesy &Scratch& is followed by the rollicking and frenetic &Up in the High Numbers.& The pace often changes, like with the jaunty and sometimes low-key &Blow Out.& The irony is evident on the blues-heavy and vibrant &We Hate the Blues.& The album as a whole is dynamic and daring. It was recorded in March 1997 and released later that year on Chicago's Touch & Go Records.
