Best Dillinger release ever. I wish this wasn't the first album of theirs I heard, because now everytime I listen to their other stuff, I'm looking for Mike Patton, and he's not there! >.

Best DEP album ever. I wish Mike Patton was there vocalist for every one.

It's a pretty decent little EP, a good intro for those who don't know DEP's music too well. I have to say I didn't like CTD at all. But there's some great Patton moments here.

well if you listen to the original "Come To Daddy" by Aphex Twin, you may appreciate that much more. It's really an amazing cover they did.

The most underrated DEP album. And probably the best. It's not a non-stop frenzy like Calculating Infinity was. And I think that's a good thing as Calculating Infinity tends to get very boring after a while. I also think some of the fans need to get off of the "technicality" bandwagon. Writing songs in odd time signatures doesn't make it any better. In fact, it can make it quite tiresome.



On this album though, it's a departure for the better.

I like Calculating Infinity more but this is still a great bunch of tracks. Pig Latin is somewhat inferior though.

I wouldn't call this their most accessible recording by any means.

God, When Good Dogs Go Bad is the best DEP song ever, hands down. I agree with the review.

MM was great. This is pretty good. I'll probably listen to it a few more times because of the short length. My rating is subject to change.

"Chinga" is actually fuck in Spanish, the root being chingar, although it's only used in South America, not Spain.



An EP probably shouldn't ever get a 5 for the simple fact that it is only an EP, but this is the one exception. Patton totally dominates the album though; I always find myself concetrating less on DEP's amazing technicality and more on Patton's insanity.
