Title: Great, great album
Review: This is both Skin Yard's heaviest and most accessible album; it's almost unrecognizable as the same band from their first record. This is a case where artistic growth doesn't make the band suck - the songs are still just as powerful and original and it has an extra-heavy quality that the other albums don't. One thing that strikes me is how much it sounds like Gruntruck, the lead singer's other band. If you are a fan of Gruntruck, or Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, or any dark-sounding early grunge music for that matter, I highly recommend this - the songs are fantastic, the production is incredible (if you care about that sort of thing), and it is possibly the best music from a band that heavily inspired Alice in Chains' sound.
Is the review positive or negative?
