by John Dougan Never released in America, the Slits' second and final record found them pushing the envelope rhythmically. Although designed to be more commercial than Cut , it's actually less so, sounding more like the innovative work a young Adrian Sherwood was doing with Creation Rebel . Fans of the early Slits, who were put off by the reggae of Cut , were no doubt further alienated by this record's comfortable use of Afro-pop tempos and style. Which was a shame, because this music was interesting, daring and exciting.
