    Agree with the previous post. "I'll meet you in Poland baby" is a cracker of a tune, one of my absolute favourites of all time. With the genius lyrics eg "I hear you got a six-inch guarantee of unilateral security". All of the Hole album is so so good: snarling, subversive, sinister, funky, and wildly energetic. "White Knuckles" is priceless too. One of great albums of the 20th century, for me it set the standard for a long time ('but is it as good and as strong as Hole?' not often).
