Back cover "The Mekons are the most revolutionary group in the history of rock 'n' roll." --Lester Bangs

Provincial punk iconoclasts turned pan=gloabl maverick legends of music and art, the Mekons walk tall into their second quarter century -- still impossible to pigeonhole, still kicking against the pricks, still burrowing feverishly beneath the soft white belly of the rock beast.

Geeful and despairing, withering and poetic, sexy and poignant, rollicking and grim, the Mekons' expressive lyrics and art offer rich insights into the band's collective creative alchemy, fierce humor, and caustic world view.
