Certainly is, especially given the album shows off so well their musical talent, being able to write in complex time structures, that fucking meaty bass from JJ and Dave being spot on, as ever, on the keys.

1. Nice 'n' Sleazy
2. Toiler on the Sea
3. Tank
4. Curfew
5. Death and Night and Blood (Yukio)
Stunning album. Some of JJ and Dave Greenfield's best moments. They toured the whole album a few years back, damn good show.

No thanks to stuck up writers like Jon Savage who disliked them and tried to write them out of punk history. But the kids know they always know.
