| Why this album is so acclaimed as to be one of the finest works of punk-rock in history I will never understand, but I can comprehend why everyone likes it. Its aggressive instrumentation and chant-like vocals probably create a hauntingly awesome atmosphere for fans of the band, and specifically this record. But I can't say that does it at all for me. I'd take Sex Pistols over this band, and thats really saying something when it comes to me. Jello Biafra I must say employs one of the worst vocal displays I've ever heard in my life, and the rest of the band does absolutely nothing to redeem him. They're attitude twoard the music greatly reminds me of Flipper. But of course there is light amongst the shadows, and songs like 'Kill The Poor' and 'Chemical Warfare' are most obviously good punk tracks. Holiday In Cambodia really slays me. What do you all see in that song? |

| Jesus Christ. I honestly don't think that I've heard a more boring Metal album in my life. Personally I think alot of the genre is kinda average, but when I heard about Opeth I was greatly intrigued at the mixture of progressive rock and just plain Metal. Sounds cool enough. Though, I went into this album expecting heavy progressive, or just simply alot heavier than I soon found it out to be. It starts off well with a promising opener but after that first track the band seems to never really feel what I needed them to. I would have liked it to be a bit more lively and interesting (well, touche Opeth, you are an interesting band). It just came off as extremely boring. Their arrangements are top notch, but just don't do it for me. |
