Strapping Young Lad
My initial reaction when listening to this CD was, "Holy ####, this is heavy."And hey, I was right. To quote Strapping Young Lad themselves, it's "Heavy As A Really Heavy Thing." But along with the chaotic, relentless mayhem that we've come to expect from Strapping Young Lad, comes a great deal of sophistication. A good example of this is a quote from the song "Aftermath": Fighting for Jesus through prices of oil See how your demons are forming a wall Burning and beating and raping them all So along with such absolutely rage-filled songs as "Rape Song", and "Consequence", you've got more politically-minded songs such as "Aftermath" and "Bring on the Young".
