GENRE: Alt-rock/ alt-metal YEAR: 1992 A heaven-sent album, literally a masterpiece as far as I'm concerned. Mike Patton's vocals really REALLY kill on this album, be it the gutteral screams and the high screeches of "Smaller and Smaller", the biting command and background cheer of "Be Aggressive" (I SWALLOW!), or the smooth serenade of the cover of Commodores' "Easy". There's not a single song I'd skip. [10/10], easy peasy.

God tier. Also the music video for Everything’s Ruined is incredible. I remember seeing it on MTV late at night as a kid but missing the title and not knowing what the hell it was but it blew my mind and was such an influence on me.

@VISCERALSUSPICION it's amazing! Every aspect of that music video makes me so happy. The Reese's shirt is so iconic, lol.

this band may be problematic but Peter Steele is dead and I am still alive this album and it’s melodic vocals, medieval references and environmental soundscapes embody a duality of joy and ecstasy, but also of madness and frenzy just like the god bacchus released 5 years after the end of the Cold War, political sentiments mixed with classical orchestral instruments, organs straight out of the 70s, and a classic late 90s grunge nihilistic attitude, this album has become a psychedelic time machine placebo this album sounds like how the sun feels on your skin and makes you overwhelmingly aware of the shadows you cast on the pavement

So for god knows what reason I’m being forced to work at 4:45 this morning and have a 12 hour shift. God save me. For my 45 minute commute I need to charge my cell phone, and can’t aux at the same time. I’m listening to my CD of Metallica’s And Justice For All… and I am kicking ass and taking names!! I know it’s basic, but I love AJFA and master of puppets, these albums just kick ass I love the guitar tone. Super quick and melodically not too hard on the ears, this is a great start to Metal if you never have listened!! One is maybe a top 5 song ever for me but I also love Harvester of Sorrow and Eye of the Beholder, if I had to pick a few. Bonus - the live Seattle ā€˜89 concert on here is amazing and tied for my favorite live album (with men I trust). Enjoy lord help me

One of the least talked-about GOAT double albums ever. I think I caught the band live for the first time on the ā€œSisterā€ tour that preceded it - I’d never seen or heard anyone abuse guitars in such a creative and unusual way before that (or since). Not a dud track on it. A mind-blowing, life-altering, perspective-forming monster of a release. I was and have remained a fan ever since (and Kim Gordon is a goddess, I’ll go down with that particular ship forever). When someone says ā€œbest NYC art rockā€ this is automatically my go-to reaction. Like a gallery showing for a new artist you can’t wait to tell your friends about. šŸ–¤ P.S.: Yes it sucks that they're gone and I blame Thurston, of course.
