Mr. Self Destruct and Piggy are both quite weak. getting close to halfway done with the album. not sure how this has a 5.0 across the board. headscratching

Is this your first time hearing this Natural? I feel like this album would be hard to pin down on a single listen. Both of those songs are stellar imo. Try the live version from And All That Could Have Been. Also, be sure to check the Fragile which is probably my favorite album from any artist

Calling Piggy weak just does not fuckin compute with me



And agreed, I love this record but I like the Fragile more these days. The first disc is the best thing Trent’s ever made, and the second disc ain’t a slouch either

yeah this was my first time hearing it. way back when i had the first album, with teeth, year zero, and Ghost I-IV. then i finally got the entire discography on my ipod. relistened to the remastered first album, the broken EP, and then listened to this

his voice is really nothing special and this album was just a slog. i have been avoiding continuing on from here. granted i have 45,000+ songs on my ipod so i am darting in different directions

Bands just not for you and that’s fine but if you don’t feel ANYTHING while listening to Hurt you might be a robot

I really enjoyed the first album and EP. so i know i can enjoy the band. just depends on how future albums go. i will probably revisit this album once time has passed

I’m not a fan of solos in general, but yeah, that one’s frkn fantastic! And then the drums come back banging, what a moment.

The guitar solo in Manson’s Fundamentally Loathsome comes close.

Seeing piggy live really hit home how awesome the lyrics are

"nothing can stop me now cause i don't care anymore" is weirdly motivational.
