This is an essential album for MTX fans young and younger alike. The original version of …And the Women Who Love Them was released in 1993, but this special re-release also contains the six-song EP, Alternative is Here to Stay, plus outtakes, demos, B-sides, and compilation tracks — 25 tracks in all. What do you like better, the cheeky electric pop-punk, or the hilarious acoustic tales of heartbreak? Pardon me. I’m gonna go face my fears, shed some tears, and do a lot of heroin.
