“ Idk what happened, but a couple years ago suddenly there was this collective shift into thinking this album is a classic, front-to-back masterpiece. IMO it really, really isn't. Solid 7-8 range as an album.



This may not come out right, considering how well my blurbs usually go, but what makes it incredible is how fucking savage it is compared to their peers and the rest of the musical landscape. They were primed to drop a poppy single (saved it for Vol 3 lol), shed the intensity and clean up for a huge payday. Instead they double down and release one of the more VIOLENT albums of the era. Again, IMO, there isn't a single song on this that touches Sic or Eyeless, and it doesn't reach the highs of Vol 3 either. but all things taken into consideration it is pretty incredible how ruthlessly savage this thing still is.”



Good take

I think because these guys were all probably so depressed and young that they were able to make better music. Now they're depressed and old, they should just stop now.

I was gonna listen to it if I could find an affordable CD copy of the original release version with the songs that were taken off the regular release. That never happened so....

If it's just about hearing the version with Purity on it, that's available online easily enough
