Album Cover Description

The strange coloring evokes Ready for the House. The "grandma's kitchen" drum throne is back, the snare makes another appearance. The hi-hat is again on the left.

As always, there are curtains drawn

Reviews

...in his ‘usual’ style, although the lyrics now seem more personal than simply depressed. A couple of exceptions to the vibe this time: the jagged instrumental ‘Street Walk’, and what sounds like Jandek pounding on the back of his guitar while singing and playing harmonica on ‘Time Will Come’. -- Piero Scaruffi The History of Rock Music Vol. 4
