i like portrayal of guilt but this was pretty awful. while im not against bands evolving their sound, i don't think im ever gonna like it when a band takes a more nu metal approach. the production is also terrible, everything sounds so unfinished. im just not hearing what everyone else is hearing
it baffles me that this is their most popular album when it's not nearly as good or interesting as the previous two. i guess it's their most accessible and mature release but that's not what i look for in mr. bungle's music. the only track that really stood out to me was "goodbye sober day"
what i thought was just gonna be a dumb stoner metal album ended up featuring some of the most beautiful and interesting pieces of music i've ever heard
