Great punk.
This didn't blow me away, but it's certainly good music.
It's intense, with lots of guitars and charismatic vocals. The lyrics also have lots of personality. Some songs have a more introspective tone, while others take more of a critical look at the world and at people, like in the song Big Dick.
Overall, I think this is a rather poignant project, because it's 34 years old and so much of what is criticized in the songs is still very much alive. Some has even gotten worse, like the mass surveillance depicted in The Tower.
I got tired of waiting because I found out there's only a very very fine line between biding one's time and wasting one's time. Do you know what I mean?
This album is about how fucked things are, the lies everywhere, the injustice that festers everywhere. More than that, it's about patience running out, time running out, and disillusion. It's very emotional, and I like it.
What do you think?
Best song: Tired of Waiting
Worst song: The End of All Things
