In Your Face is the second album by the band . Two singles were released in support of the album, both becoming minor hits in the UK: "Do You Like It" (no. 73) and "Overrated" (no. 85). The band was due to tour the UK, supporting , shortly after release of the second single, but split up before the tour commenced (ironically W.A.S.P. also lost guitarist and co-founder at the same time, meaning they also had to cancel the tour). A third single "Stargazer" was pressed, but never officially released.
The 12" and CD single versions of "Do You Like It", includes the previously unreleased "Slow Down"; a song that did not make it onto the album.
