Bedtime for Democracy should look like this:

The fourth LP from the Dead Kennedys, released in December of 1986, amidst a legal battle with the LA city prosecutor's office over a H.R. Giger graphic in their Frankenchrist album. IMHO, this album has the most potent political message of them all, not to mention some real sly wit on Biafra's part. Musicwise, though, its not the greatest, but the lyrics themselves make up for it, I think. It's just one of those albums that sounds kind of funky (not like p-funk funky, but more like 'uhhh...weird...umm...' funky) at first, but it grows on you.
