| I picked this up used awhile back from a local record store but just now got around to jamming it. Suprisingly I really dig it. I figured since it was an album from a punk band released in 1995 not to have huge expectations, but I was wrong. Its very much crossover like their other albums, a little groove here and there that I can tolerate, but its really cool. I think what sets it apart is the vocals are not in that hetfield groove vein like every heavy 90s metal band, but still very punk with a little melody. I can pick out a ton of bad brains influence also.

| That's the Excel album people love to hate. I dig it, though, but probably because it was the first album I'd heard from them. I had no expectations of sound. _________________ "Happy people have no stories" —Therapy? Shock Totem | The Eyesore Times | Getcha Rocks Off   |
