In retrospect it's very much of its time (Tony Visconti's slick, synth-heavy production practically screams 1986), but it does find the band tinkering around the edges of its formula, with massive overdubbed vocals and guitar solos ("Talkin' Talkin'" and "Rock 'n' Roll Over You") that occasionally recall Queen.
