This is not the industrial metal they were known for in later years, With Sympathy is panto-goth new wave synth-pop feel to it and the song "Revenge" was an MTV staple in 1983 that got me to buy the album. The album fit the time with the keyboard laden melodies and catchy lyrics to match. It took me about four years after buying the album, (yes that "flat, black and circular" piece of pressed vinyl) before sitting down and listening to both sides. Over all I was pleased with the mastering performed by Greg Calbi. I would like to find it on vinyl again and see if some 20 years later it would still hold up.
