When Marilyn Manson first painted his fingernails black, he may have been doing it to this very album. Inspired by the dancefloor beats of Soft Cell and the industrial textures of D.A.F., 1987's That Total Age helped pave the way for Nine Inch Nails and the aforementioned Antichrist Superstar. "Join In The Chant" was a hit in all dark clubs where cloves were smoked.
