| 3.5 great | Alabaster Jones | January 5th 17 |
Here is where the seminal industrial duo would change from an EBM/electro-industrial hybrid to an industrial rock/electro-industrial one. The changes saw the band make marked improvements in catchiness and no loss of intensity, but the layers of electronic and industrial hell that permeated their early records and made them what they were had been stripped back, leaving a barer, more simple sound. They'd eventually learn how to turn this into an undeniable strength, but on Rabies the initial growing pains can be heard. Each of the songs here are pretty cool, but the majority of them also have an idea or a progression that's not fleshed out well enough or just isn't that good to begin with. The base sound remains great and the vocal performance here is as wild as ever, but the album is held back by these imperfections. If those were to have been smoothed out, this album could've been a goldmine rather than just merely good.

Despite containing their best song (Worlock), the only other standout song here is Tin Omen. Fascist Jock Itch works better as a Ministry track and the remaining songs range from average to complete filler. Easily Skinny Puppy's weakest 80's full-length.

Though home to some classic Skinny Puppy tracks, this album is jumbled and very out of place compared to their other albums.

This is a frustrating album that mixes some of the band's finest and dullest moments. The original mix is abysmal but a pretty good re-master is out there.
