Negative Positive
Title: Virginal SK
Review: Virgin Records signed Shonen Knife for this album, a few associated singles, and a compilation of studio tracks - recordings that demonstrate the band with its richest, some might say "grungiest" work. The good news is that experiment laid off. "Brown Mushrooms" and the LP's title track are instantly memorable, charming tunes that refuse to leave your mind; the remainder of the tracks hold their own, and then some.This record was released at a time when the band was at its most commercially successful, but the heavier sound may surprise some newer fans. But the material and recording are memorable in a way few bands can match.
