More synth-pop from Canada's Men Without Hats. The vinyl version has the original Folk Of The 80's EP on side one, and four mixes of 'Freeways' on side two, a track recorded in English, French and German. More industrial sound than the pop you may have already heard. 'Utter Space' is one of my favourie tracks and I rate it highly.
