Bocce F. gave it an8:
I'm an old gut and I henerally have not been a metal fan for most of my music listening life. However, I tend to give it a try when I read a good review, or two, or six. And I must sy, I like this.
Carl A. gave it a10:
It's like having fun and not having fun at the same time. It's like being punched really hard in the stomach, and then realizing something fantastic in the moment while you're struggling to breathe. Come on. It's really good.
Joe Q gave it a5:
These are the kinds of ratings that make music critics lose their credibility. I've desperately searched this recording to find something the least bit interesting. Shrugs.
Cecil P. gave it a9:
What kind of retard gives this album a 1 out of 10 rating? These guys are brilliant.
othostice gave it a1:
If there were any doubt that most record reviewers are pretentious twits, the positive, the fact that his album has garnered "universal acclaim" is irrefutable evidence. This CD was playing in a record store (remember those?), and I asked the staff who it was, simply because it was almost transcendent in its execrability (like my criticese?). Props for the band name (the mayor of SF killed by the Twinkie defense guy), but (as I told the store employees), "I need to buy this in case my copies of Lou Reed's METAL MACHINE MUSIC and Neil Young's ARC don't rid my house of guests quickly enough." Even the hipper-than-thou staff laughed and nodded. I'd rather listen to fingernails on a blackboard.
