Pretty Poison fans will be pleasantly surprised when they hear the four tracks on this EP. Although definitely a harbinger for their later work, this record has a much less produced sound, and you can hear Pretty Poison's roots as a simple electronic outfit without lots of fancy equipment. It's almost like hearing an "Unplugged" record (if that's even possible for an electronic group). "Seal It With A Kiss" is my favorite cut. It sounds like a track that Company B would have recorded on their debut record, but Starling's vocals bring it home as a Pretty Poison track. "Let Freedom Ring" was re-recorded for their debut album in 1987, and this early version is a far cry from what ended up on that disc. It's stripped to little more than Starling's voice, a drum machine, and a warbly (but not overpowering) synth. "Expiration" is a cool Halloween song and sounds very 1983. "Temptest Nightmare" is the biggest shocker on the album, an electronic new wave cut deeply rooted in goth rock, a sound which is nowhere to be found in the band's later work. If you can find this one, it's worth it to hear where this very unique band started.
