In retrospect, Howe was less than happy with the album, especially with the fact that it looked like he was using the Rational Youth name as a flag of convenience for a solo album. To date, the album has never seen a CD release. ''Heredity'' was produced by Howe together with former [[Klaatu]] member [[Dee Long]]. ==Track listing== #"Heredity" (Tracy Howe, Peter McGee) - 4:15 #"No More And No Less" (Howe) - 4:05 #"Call Me" (Howe) - 2:58 #"In Your Eyes" (Howe, Kevin Komoda) - 3:10 #"I've Got A Sister In The Navy" (Howe) - 3:42 #"Bang On" (John Jones) - 4:10 #"Freeze" (Howe, McGee) - 5:01 #"Burn The Night Away" (Howe) - 3:20 #"Holiday In Bangkok" (Howe) - 5:20 #"Sorry" (Howe) - 4:48 Tracks 4 and 9 have previously appeared on the ''[[Rational Youth (EP)|Rational Youth]]'' EP.
