Morocco girl IN A DAY has changed her rating from 6 to 7. Douche.

Well, as aformentioned you really need to work on how to give rating. Don't keep swinging.

Time keeps passing by and this album still sounds fucken awesome!

The strength of the rhythm component in this album is so undeniable that after reading objections as to the quality of the album I feel compelled to reply some sort of incredible statement like "you can't yet appreciate the guitar riff". I can only think the same thing when people hate on Metallica's classic albums.

There's nothing wrong with swinging o.o

Probably because he thinks that we might think it's not GodMoron.

His real name is strawberry. Clearly a guy who can be taken seriously.

Feel sorry if you haven't interacted with him

What are you guys saying? God Bus huhh... Mr Strawberry is one of the wisest and most tolerant MS users, especially when it comes to genre discussion.

He is also the greatest philanderer here

Thanks.
I was originally named Cabbage but my mum thought Strawberry sounds more serious and smart, so I got my name changed later.

Quite heavy off-topic derailing going on over here.

The greatest Sludge album.

Holy moly this is a great album.

Only songs I didn't care for are Cheap Vodka and Cassie East Cockroaches. Everything else is good. Bones of Baby Dolls is my personal favorite.

Still the best sludge metal album of all time, this should be on the top 200 list.

This album is brilliant in small doses. Yep, some quality sludge, but listening to the whole thing in one go does become a chore for me.

"The Bones Of Baby Dolls" and "Scream Of The Butterfly" are the standout tracks for me.

Awesome dirty, addictive sludge!

It feels like a guilty pleasure jamming to this album with its sick, twisted, yet poetically articulated lyrics. This definitely seems like a concept album centered around the terrible and insane musings and actions of a serial killer like John Wayne Gacy (with, clearly, the fitting cover art). It's all so vile yet captivating (I feel reminded of my recent watch of American Psycho).

My favorite songs are in the first half of the album (tracks 1 to 7), especially the eerie "Finger Paintings Of The Insane", the crushing "Jezebel", the melancholic "Scream Of The Butterfly", and the ultra-heavy, demented "Dr Seuss Is Dead"!

On the second half, the standout tracks for me are the sombre "Bones Of Baby Dolls", the groovy "Morticians Flame", and "What Color Is Death", which borders on death metal.

I find all songs are really great, except for "Toubabo Koomi" and "Cassie Eats Cockroaches", which lacked any catchy element for me, sadly.

In conclusion, a really fantastic album that so uniquely mixes fun, demented, wild, and depressively beautiful elements with catchy riffs and a vocalist with an unparalleled range! Thank you, Rod, for this recommendation!

Glad you loved the album. After more than 15 years I still love it so much. To me this album is perfect as I can pinpoint at least one moment from each track that makes me lose my shit. If I had to pick 2 tracks that weren't as good it could be "Dope Fiend" and "What Color Is Death".

"Dope Fiend" takes a little too long to properly get me going which is particularly difficult after the intensity of "Dr. Seuss Is Dead". It seems a bit like more ordinary stoner to me at first. But the second half gets me good. The faster mid section has intereting drum patterns***. And when Dax keeps screaming "Yeah motherfucker I'M HIGH... And I'm thankful just to be alive." it's just *chef's kiss*

"What Color Is Death" doesn't click with me too much because it has a bit of a nu metal sound that, while great, feels a bit off when compared to the rest of the album. The lyrics do not grab me as much a the other tracks either. This is for the first minute though. Then it gains a heavier, more extreme conclusion. There are some truly vicious high-pitched scream from guitarrist Sammy on this track.

I can undertand what you say about "Toubabo Koomi". I personally like this song a lot but it took me a while to to get into it unlike the first half of the album that was instant classic material. This song more or less feels like a longer version of "Cheap Vodka" as it also kicks off in a very aggressive, near punk-like, manner but then it closes in a very moody way and that ending is really cool to me. Also, damn the way he ends the fast section with "I'm gonna push my love... through your skull!!!". It's also notable for being their only official video.

"Cassie Eats Cockroaches" for me is a great ending. I love the samples from Clockwork Orange and Blue Velvet. Second only to "Jezebel" I think "Cassie Eats Cockroaches" has the most intense drumming in the entire album. The second half of the song has breakdowns deathcore bands wish they could come up with. The love lyrics on this one are also among the most disturbing in the album.

When The Kite String Pops has excellent replay value. After so many years I still feel like I re-discover new things. Like a riff or drum pattern that passed me by at first gets more interesting or a vocal line more hard-hitting.

*** = The intricate drumming is something that is easy to miss in this album, especially after the first listenings where it's eay to get sucked into the riffs and vocal delivery alone.

Before it gets taken down by the greedy fuckers from Rotten Records! ENJOY!

Dr Seuss Is Dead!

By far my favorite song by Acid Bath!
That super heavy riffing ("We await liiiiife!" ) and the catchy, creepy, headbang-inducing chorus ("We are the dead next doooor!!" ) make an unbeatable combo for me!

The ironic thing is, the song can't possibly be "turned up too loud!"

This album does a better job of getting into the mind of serial killers than most documentaries do.

Jezebel is the best song on this album. So brutal with lyrics inside the serial killer mind. The whole album is so good, but inconsistent. Some songs drag a little bit, but when played as a whole it’s a totally unique album that’s never really been matched.

Magnificent record. The genres blend into each other so effortlessly.
