ジャミロクワイがアシッド・ジャズ路線をさらに拡張し、ディスコやエレクトロの要素を強めた4作目。
世界的ヒット曲「Canned Heat」や「Supersonic」を収録。アシッド・ジャズからよりディスコ寄りの方向へ進化し、全英アルバムチャート1位を獲得した4作目。
制作中にベースのスチュアート・ゼンダーが脱退するという大きな転機を経ながらも、作品全体には従来のグルーヴと新たなダンサビリティが自然に融合している。「Canned Heat」は高揚感あふれるストリングスと躍動的なリズムが際立ち、UK4位・USダンスチャート1位のヒットを記録した代表曲。「Supersonic」もクラブで支持を得たダンス・トラックで、ミッドテンポの「Black Capricorn Day」や深みのあるバラード「King for a Day」など多彩な表情が並ぶ。全英1位の成功とともに、バンドの新章を告げる重要作。
