Kevin, have we already talked about "Punk Paradox"? If not, you absolutely have to read or listen to it!
Great summary, by the way. I love Suffer. I think the trilogy of that + No Control + Against the Grain is among the best runs ever by any punk band, pop-leaning or otherwise.
Just added to my Spotify! 1988 I was still firmly in my Holy Trinity era of music fandom (i.e. Depeche Mode, The Cure, The Smiths). So I didn't get into BR until Recipe for Hate. So many good trax on that but I have high hopes for Suffer especially you say Donita played on it. L7 are legend. Riot grrrlz 4evah!!!
