Factory is reissuing an even more improved version of Freak Magnet?including bonus tracks?finally giving it the widespread exposure it deserves. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsProbably only femmes fans will get something out of it. Rachel E. Spence | Woodbridge, VA USA | 04/17/2006 (3 out of 5 stars) "Some of the music on this CD is very catchy, I'm a fan of the first few songs Freak Magnet, Sleepwalking, and Hollywood is High. If you're looking for something the quality of Hallowed Ground or the Violent Femmes, this isn't it, but it still is an entertaining album. It is sort of a different type of sound, but if you like the femmes you will be able to find something good in this album, otherwise you probably won't like it so much."
