Title: Self-fulfilling prophecy
Review: This is music? This torrid piece of filth could well be the 90s answer to Emerson, Lake and Palmer. There is not a trace of intelligence in any lyric, the music is merciless sludge, and the album consists mainly of filler.I know, because I've listened to it many times. This is one of my friend's favorites, for whatever reason, and she saw fit to make me listen to it. In fact, she saw fit to make me STUDY it. So I listened to each song multiple times and analyzed her printed lyrics. I came to the conclusion that it was almost entirely without worth. THEN I got to listen to the entire 76 minute torturous sprawl. Several times. (All for you, I! Never say I'm not a true friend. I even tried my best to like your favorite parts!)"Eulogy" (which is decent for what it is) says it best for Mr. Keenan and his merry band: "He had a lot of nothing to say."
Is the review positive or negative?
