    This is nowhere near their live performances, the light guitars replaced the faux-metal style, for the worse. The only people who like this album are those who never heard them before this CD. For the rest of us, it is a total letdown...

    Take away the insane lyrics, and you’ve still got music worth listening to. Granted, it sounds like Journey being raped by Ronnie James Dio, but you have to admit that’s intriguing.

    Not since Bob and Doug McKenzie have two jokers nailed the clod-metal aesthetic so accurately: Nearly every lyric here comes straight from your high school's bathroom wall.

    They're profane, bursting with rage and lust, and they deliver more laughs than anyone since Richard Pryor.
