Well, that was, um, interesting. Cleaner and more controlled, which is just 
what you'd want from a Richard Hell and the Voidoids album. His vocals are 
more subdued. Again, just what you'd want from a Richard Hell album.

Is it my imagination or does he sing Destiny Street as though he thought it 
was the worst thing he'd ever written? Maybe it's just embarassment over 
presenting himself as 31 and meeting his 21 year-old self? If he's redoing 
the vocals, why not change the lyric, since the whole album is his 58 
year-old self meeting his 31 year-old self.
