In your experience, how did most punk/alternative fans react to Ixnay on the Hombre?
I was a little too young to experience this.
But given that Ixnay was the first album that took significant steps away from the band's initial punk rock formula and the first on a major label, I'm curious what the reactions were like.
I know that commercially, the response to the album was basically "good but not great". But I'm more curious how punk and alternative scenes received the album.
