I don't know what's better: the bangin no-nonsense intro, the speaker noise blast at 1:23 (I wish I knew what I was talking about), or the groove riffs on the 2nd half in general, or the explosive breakdown at the end EDIT: apparently it's amp feedback. I adore the amp feedback at 1:23
@@GrandmasDay32 I just now reread your comment and realized that you said you wish they would repress it, I thought you said why would they repress it on vinyl. My mistake.
I wouldn’t really consider this straight hardcore punk, It has way more in common with metal, punk fusion genres like Metalcore (though I hate to admit it) and Crust Punk.
@@goner.9989 i would call it as some kind of hybrid between sludge metal, hardcore punk, grindcore with some noise elements. there is at least one noise track, Phoenix In Flames. It has also lot of fast paced punky rhythms, and sludgy, slow grooves. :p

it is not about the lyrics and vocals, but about the emotion coming from this record. vocals are just another melody here, not something you should focus on. it is an normal pattern in hardcore or mathcore music.
The singer said in an interview, when asked about how indecipherable some of his words are, that he treats vocals like any other instrument, and understanding each word isn't essential per se, as you can always read the lyrics. Something to that extent anyway
Cannibal corpse is even more incomprehensible, the point of most extreme metal or hardcore is getting a lyrics sheet next to the song. There are few extreme bands where you can actually hear what they are shouting. Besides, this is a classic album for a reason, one of the few times metallic hardcore/mathcore was actually able to inspire people all across the world. Kurt actually got invited to Berkeley to speak on the production of this album since it's so iconic. After this album he is also regarded as one of the if not the best producers in all of metal/hardcore.
@@jackcravford8744 Actually the lyrics in this album are quite good, but if you want you could not look up the lyrics and just feel the music. Totally acceptable.
@@knell-zh7do not exactly "having the time" imo, like why th would you pretend to like something? ^^" also i think if you don't like something just leave or give some decent feedback, what he said is just amazing lol
