The disgustingly harsh tone of the synthesizers and Nivek Ogre's bitter vocals are undoubtedly a savage combo. Skinny Puppy's Too Dark Park is a warfare-ready testament to this post-industrial act's legacy, and the album might as well be some sort of indication that the brooding angels inside your toilet are better off influencing any happy-go-lucky fool.

Pound for pound, Too Dark Park may just be Skinny Puppy's finest hour. Sure, the sheer insanity is dialed back when compared to releases like Mind: The Perpetual Intercourse or Last Rights, and maybe there isn't a song on the level of "Testure" here (although one could argue "Nature's Revenge" to be right up there with it), but don't be misled: this record is everything awesome about Skinny Puppy rolled into one record. The strange rhythmic vocals that lend themselves to madness, the immaculate sampling, the oddly catchy synths, the driving and intense beats, the incendiary lyrics, the chaotic-yet-controlled compositions, and the drearily intense atmosphere are all here, complete with only the highest quality songwriting, quality which remains unaffected throughout the albums entire runtime. Put simply, Too Dark Park is perhaps the quintessential Skinny Puppy record, and one of the best albums the greater industrial genre ever brought to the table.

While not bad,i have a few problems with this
1.The Lyrics seem to be just some weird mashed together Goth Stuff,different to Deep Meanings,which was the case on Songs of older Albums (for most)
2.Some Songs are great (Convulsion,Spasmolytic),some others are boring (Grave Wisdom),some others have great ideas in them,but these ideas arent executed long enough (the accoustic Part in Nature's Revenge)

Perhaps one, if not THE epitome, of industrial music. The perfect blend of brooding metal, glitchy & grimy electronica, and "synthetic" distorted vocals make this an industrial electronica staple. For anyone that is getting interested in this subgenre, just be sure to listen to this founding pillar of an album cause it is BRUTAL!

It takes a while to get used to this album, it's just so dark and fucked up it's hard to get into. But it's amazing once you get used to it. This has become one of my favorite albums of all time

Cool industrial music that is unique, they use a lot of weird but cool sounds in the tracks. The only criticism is that songs could get boring after a while.
