Hi gginblack!
It´s not the music that keeps people away from this album,
it´s one of the ugliest record sleeves of all time!!! With a nicer sleeve design this could have been a huge success and make Scars an household name amongst Post Punk and New Wave fans. I own this album for more than twenty years now and I play it from time to time with nostalgia. If you like this one you should also try "Fiction Tales" by Modern Eon or "Swimming" by belgian Band The Names. Cheers

This is an album that all new wave lovers should have, and cherish!
From 1981 on, it's an icon, for me.
I don't understand why this album is not in any chart, or anything. Beginning with "Leave me in the autumn" , it's a trip trough the new romantic '80's. Try this, if you don't know it yet!!!
