Skunk is right. I'm pretty sure this is what they used for music torture at Abu Ghraib. I can smell this shit through my headphones. Completely unlistenable.
Barely listenable. A couple of passable tracks... Secretly... Mostly screaming and shock value
Annoying
With all due respect to the people who wrote this book…what the fuck?
Nope
Lordy lord British metal is not for me.
Not for me
This was insufferable. I guess I could understand why others would like it but this was like a near hour of nails on a chalkboard for me.
The singles I knew from this band were melodic and absolutely focussed around the personality of lead singer, Skin. Now listening to this album for the first time it is way heavier than I recalled this band being. It starts Prodigy-esque before moving into Rage Against the Machine territory. It’s got a real nineties feel and isn’t quite either grunge or metal. It’s all a bit shouty for me and not something I’d particularly listen to again. It feels quite dated.
If I wanted to listen to a woman screaming at me for 40 minutes, I'd stay home. Pass.
No, thank you. The aggresive approach is too much imo
not actual music but a statement
The first two SA albums were pretty good; this one just sounds like every other alt-rock soft-metal band from the late 90s/early aughts - frankly not very interesting
Irritating vocals. I could only make it through 3 minutes.
All bleeds together. I didn’t care about any of it.
not for me. no screaming
i liked the dialogue to set up some of the songs. not what i’d typically listen to/ a style of music i enjoy but a well put together album.
Didn't do anything for me.
Terrible.
So edgy, so angry, so 90's. Struggled to get through this one
Ei musiikillisesti täyttä paskaa (eikä varsinkaan laulaja), mutta äänimaailmaltaan ja estetiikaltaan mahdotonta sulattaa. Siinä missä voisin laittaa jonkun Hybrid Theoryn soimaan "läpällä ja kännissä", en voisi kuvitella edes muistavani tämän levyn olemassaoloa.
Mental bit of music, no idea what this was, not my slice of pie that’s for sure. Lately was my fav song 2.5/10
i don't remember skunk anansie having a nu-metal phase and if you got a list of their albums and said that is definitely the one you have to listen to, it gives you the best representation of the band and what they offer that is unique, it aint this album. i'm not surprised they went on hiatus after this album as it is clearly a band that has lost its way.
A post orgasmic chill unlike no other I've ever experienced. Usually I'm flying through the clouds, feeling like just about the best bloke in Britain, but this post-coital bliss is kind of different. It makes me feel dirty, grubby, like an unwashed toothbrush being gently guided down the back of a hippy and into their undergrowth as a form of entertainment for a gang of posh youths trying to up their street cred in front of the prettiest transexual this side of the Mississippi.
Not my thing
Matko wyspiarskiej muzyki, znowu to zrobilas, post orgasmic chill to trzeci studyjny album bandy skund anansie, ktora sklada sie z czterech czlonkow i frontuje jej pani, chyba, Skin, ktora poza wokalami jeszcze gra na jakis elektro lub wibrofonach, traki podpisane jako wspolna praca grupy, ale i tak czuc z nich pania wokalistke, bo duzo jest gadania z pierwszej osoby, oczywiscie tematy najwyzszej wagi, problemy zycia, swiata, kolorow, co pasuje idealnie do rokowania wczesnych lat 2k, bo plyta wydana w 99, alternatywne rokowanie z tej bardziej metalowej czesci spectrum alternatywy, nie tylko przez w wiekszosci wykrzyczane wokale, ale przez granie glownie na elektrykach, ktore idealnie pasuja do zagluszania bajduzenia lirycznego, nie potrafilem znalezc jednego traka, ktory by czyms przyciagnal, wiec jedyna zaleta tego 50 minutowego krazka bylo to, ze zdradza kiedy sie zakonczy, nie wiem czy to juz jakies osluchanie wsrod sredniej muzyki popowej, ale wrzucenie takiego utworu jak tutaj im not afraid praktycznie zawsze zwiastuje zamkniete plyty, wiec po kilku nutkach juz wiedzialem, ze koniec tego wymeczonego seansu nadchodzi, po przesluchaniu czegos tak nijako brzmiacego czlowiek nie jest nawet ciekawy jak kto z kim i dlaczego tworzyl plyte, a to naprawde rzadkosc nijakosci
honestly? I only made it to the opening of the second song
