That sounds horrible!
But will check out Boom In The Night, definitely.
"Beauty Lies" a better record than I have painted. There are bits that have that early 90s rap metal sound and the singing is generally more shouty. It's not the whole story though. I just like them better when they are doing the more Contortions / Au Pairs styled music and there is evidence of that too on this album. The snare sound is huge but the bass is a bit more recessed and rock than in their 80s music. Depends on what you like.
Still think "Boom" is the one to own.
