"First time reissue of this vaunted power pop classic! Limited edition of 500 copies. Green arrived on the alternative rock scene in the mid '80s, amidst a Chicago scene that included bands like Naked Raygun, Big Black, and Ministry. While Green bypassed the major label-express that other bands rode to fame and fortune, they continued to make records their own way, records that were lauded in the pages of Trouser Press, Spin, and The Village Voice, among others. And with each passing year there are those many who are convinced that their debut LP is worthy of those Mojo/VH1/Spin lists of the top 50 or 100 rock albums of all time. Green may be the bee's knees for power poppers, but they deserve much more notice than that. They were an all-embracing band, with a taste for punk, glam rock and soul -- and with the twitchy sort of energy that burbled around in the late '80s pre-grunge underground."
