Release Date: 2003 | Tracklist


The Album is full with great songs a couple aren’t that good but i give it a 4.5/5 rating. Its Filled with heavy and very catchy tunes that will make you start tapping away or so it does for me.

1. Slit My Wrist- 3/5 not that great of a song its sounds a little EMO to me and I don’t like that. The drumming is great and the guitar is alright. The Lyrics is what ruins it. They don’t make sense and the idea about a song that talks about how he wants to slit his wrist well sounds really bad. I know the band likes to full around but this song makes them sound bad. Overall the song is good instrumentally its just the lyrics that throw me off a little.

2. Twist My Sister- 3.5/5. Pretty good drums and guitar. Except I have no clue what " Twist My Sister " means. The Solo after the second chorus is pretty good. Overall the song is very good and needs a little revisions in the lyrics. There isn’t much else to say about the song.

3. Dead in Hollywood- 4/5. Very heavy drums and guitar they start slow and just come together and it sounds awesome. Lyrics pretty random and really have no connection to each other except they all relate to a creature or evil person in a scary movie. Overall the song has a great sound with lyrics and instruments.

4. Love At First Fright 4/5. The song has great drums and guitar. The chorus is a little weird " call a priest so he can exercise me". The rest is pretty good they all come together and its very catchy. Overall the song together is great lyrics and all.

5. People Hate Me-5/5. One of my favorites the whole meaning is i hate you and you hate me. The drumming is great and the guitars have great distortion not too much its the perfect amount, for this song. The solo isn’t as great as others that I have heard ( Trivium-Gun Shot to the head of Tretribution) but its all right. Overall the song is a great song and doesn’t need anything changed.

6. She was a Teenage Zombie-2/5. Not one of there great ones. Drumming is great the guitar is also its just the lyrics there extremely weird and they don’t appeal to me. If the lyrics and entire point of the song was different I would like it more. The instruments are great but the lyrics are crap making the overall pretty bad.

7. Die my Bride-3/5. A pretty good song the bells add a great sound. When the drumming starts its great with the floor tom and then the guitar comes in making it seem to fit great. The overall thing is fine but needs a little work.

8. Grave Robbing U.S.A 3/5. Very catchy tune. It sort of seems they were just messing around and put it together but it sounds great. Guitar and drums are pretty simple but they blend in together and that sounds great. The song is pretty short and the conversations at the end and beginning are pretty amusing. The overall song really comes together but I couldn’t stomach giving it a 5 because the song doesn’t really speak to me.

9. 197666- 4.5/5. This song has complicated drumming but the guitar is extremely simple and that’s why I didn’t give it a 5/5. Lyrics are pretty funny to me. The solo is also very simple. The song comes together and has a great sound.

10. Dawn of the Dead-4/5. Catchy tune and has a cool special effect in the beginning. The drumming is pretty good and seem to go with the guitar. The concept of the song is pretty good. And the whole thing just has the catchiest tune.

11. Lets go to War- 4.5/5. At Some points I cant understand what he’s saying i had to look up the lyrics. It may be my bad hearing from to many concerts but the beginning of the chorus sounds like he’s saying " High School bitch go *** your mom" but it is really " High School bitch don’t suck your thumb". I might need to look into a hearing aid but being 16 it may seem weird. Anyway the drumming is very complicated and the guitar isn’t as much but altogether its a pretty good song. Overall the song was great.

12. Dressed to Depress- 3/5. Catchy tune and the drums are great. The guitar are pretty simple. Lyrics okay, they don’t really speak to me though and i don’t care for the song to much but it's very catchy and when I listen to it I start tapping, even though that is normal. Catchy tune and the song is good altogether.

13. Kill Miss America-2/5. I like the instrument part. The concept is bad I mean Miss America is hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And him wanting to be a cross dresser zombie doesn’t sound that great. The song together isn’t that great and needs many revisions.

14. B-Movie Scream Queen-3/5. I love the guitar and the drumming. The lyrics sound pretty good but the song doesn’t have much of an effect on me. The song overall needs many revision.

15. Mother ***er, I Don’t Care-5/5. My Favorite song of all time. That’s my life motto the drumming is great and the guitar is pretty cool. The lyrics are a big *** YOU and it sounds great, especially when your pissed off at some one it helps you let your steam out and that is what i like about it. A great song I love it it speaks to me and I know many people who will say the same.


As you Know Joey Jordinson is also the drummer for Slipknot. The thing you probably didn’t know is that he prefers guitar, and if u have listened to his drum solo on 9.0 Live, you may find yourself asking the same question I did why? The band loves to just fool around just like I do, with my band and that’s the greatest for a band. I hope you enjoy the album as much as I do.


This is my first Review so i tried my best.

This is one of the common spelling errors on this site.
Alblum, as you put it, is spelled album. Kind of like "photo album". Other than that, it was a good review for a first. Keep it up.

Very boring, tasteless metal.



If you want good gutiar solos, in my honest opinion Murderdolls isn't the place to look. I tend to opt to the Symphony X's, Death's (Thor m/), Malmsteen's and Stratovarius's of the world.



If you want a awful, tasteless modern pop-metal/shock rock.

This is the album for you.

Dawn of the dead is however catchy, as much as I hate to admit it.



Edit



Sorry. You reviewed it quite well. *thumbs up*

I would suggest you to write more details. You just said, the guitarriff is simple, the drumming is great, the lyrics are weird ... If I wouldn´t know the songs I had no clue what they sound like or what they are about. No Attack.

'it sounds a little emo'
Hardly. And the lyrics to Slit My Wrist aren't meant to make sense in the sense that they tell a story, they're just random stuff about horror movies and hollywood. I mean, c'mon, who doesn't get a giggle out of 'Radiation/Masturbation/Sci-fi lobotomy/Bloodsuckers/Motherfuckers/Brain-dead neurotic things'
As for 'Twist My Sister', the name is obviously referring to Twisted Sister.
Anyway, decent review, they have some catchy songs, but they get old quickly. They were surprisingly good live though.

I don't agree with all your opinions (I loved She Was A Teenage Zombie! :O) but nonetheless a pretty good first review.
