Three original members and a support cast list to die for (Gary Numan, Julianne Regan, Martin Gore and Ville Valo) but it's all so unmemorable..... I couldn't even guess which track Numan was on until I read the sleeve notes and even now I'm not sure he's actually on it
It's meant to be the album that follows First & Last and Always and in a way you can see that with Adams' bass to the fore and Hussey adopting a very low register on most of the vocals but that doesn't necessarily mean it's a great Mission album - more a Sisters curio
There are a couple of great tracks though
- The first is the big dumb sing along of Met-A-Morphis which contemplates old age and the death of Bowie with a nagging chorus.
- The second is Jade which is a glorious slow burning classic in the traditional Mission manner
