Flip-Flop is the fourth and final studio album by the American band Guadalcanal Diary. It was released in 1989 on Elektra Records. The band supported the album with a North American tour. "Always Saturday", for which a video was shot, was released as a single.




Production


The album was produced by Don Dixon. Drummer John Poe wrote several of the album's songs. "Ten Laws" was inspired by Joseph Campbell's Myths to Live By.




Critical reception



The Los Angeles Times wrote: "One of the most underrated, overlooked and inaccurately compared to R.E.M. bands around doesn't offer much to change that on its fourth album." The Northwest Florida Daily News deemed the album "artsy rock 'n' roll" that "doesn't stray too far from homespun melodies and twangy guitars."
The Toronto Star called it "raucous, energizing, intelligent guitar rock." The Gazette determined that the album finds the band "working some of the melancholy out of singer Murray Attaway's vocals." The Chicago Tribune labeled Flip-Flop "terrific mainstream rock, a shade quirkier than John Mellencamp or Tom Petty but no less deserving of Top 40 status."
