in my iTunes, I have them tagged under Viet Cong with Preoccupations as the contributing artist so it scrobbles as Preoccupations but is with VC in the library.

It's an amazing roller coaster ride in post-punk/noise rock/industrial music. Though it's only 7

songs, it works to the benefit of the album. Each song is an all-out assault against the senses,

and I'm not sure the listener would be able to take much more after the album's conclusion

(especially after the fantastic closer, "Death"). Offensive name aside (the band said they would

be changing it for their next album), this is one heck of an album and is definitely worth

checking out if you like more experimental music.



FAVORITE TRACKS: Newspaper Spoons, Pointless Experience, March of Progress, Bunker Buster,

Continental Shelf, Silhouettes, Death



LEAST FAVORITE TRACKS: None

Nah, I haven't even tried to pirate it. I'm surprised it leaked so early.

Yeah, they played at least a couple extra minutes when I saw them. It was fucking sweet. I will probably wait to hear the new album. Got a letter from my iso about pirating last month, so trying to lay low.
