One of the most incredible, intense albums I've ever listened to. I'm with everyone else, "Frankie Teardrop" scared the living shit out of me the first time around

Definitely one of the most intense, frightening songs I've ever heard.

Really I wish I could have witnessed one of their early legendary shows at CBGBs when they were scaring the shit out of the tough punks.

Such an awesome album. Heard it first as a young teen looking for some "edgy" music- Frankie Teardrop scared the living crap out of me. It's worn out some of it's creepiness for me, but I still love Frankie Teardrop, Ghost Rider, and Rocket USA- so much emotion. Alan Vega's got some interesting solo work as well.

I like to think I'm hip and progressive enough when it comes to music, but when literally a third of an album's length is 'Frankie Teardrop', it's asking a little too much.

Masterpiece. Get the DeLuxe CD version with 23 Minutes Over Brussels, an indispensable document of how antagonistic the reactions to their shows could be.
