Having heard other songs from this group, I don’t believe this track is one of there best productions. The video does nothing to enhance the listenability of this particular song. I have heard other songs from this group that are both lyrically and instrumentally more dynamic and cohesive. If this was my first encounter with Opiate for the Masses, I might concur with some of the preceding comments. However, I believe the works of this group require further scrutinization by the discriminating listener. Sink for the video Swim for the group.
I’d say SINK. They are unique to a certain degree. Mixing industrial genre with metal. They closely resemble Judas Priest lyrically with their S&M themes and heavy metal posing. What’s up with that Billy Idol look too?
NOT better than Weezer. Probably not even better than the Toadies, but that’s debatable at least.
I didn’t hear any Crue influence but they sound like every other generic “industrial” band that hit radio in the 90’s and what is with the Billy Idol clone??? SInk Sink SINk
TRUE POINT ….. Songs ok…better than freaking bands like Weezer and Toadies!!
I agree with Johnny about the White Zombie, but it’s a sad facsimile. Why is it that if any hard rock band dabbles in electronica, they get the NIN comparison?
Sink, by the way.
Good for radio–fills the void left by Zombie. I get the NIN, but Crue? Even when people vote to let it swim, we never see it again, anyway-so what’s the difference?
100% pure shit without a shred of any real talent. Maybe these punks can still get their jobs back at Burger King.
