    This song is EPIC, and to me it epitomizes the pain and disillusionment of modern life. Many songs from the 90s did such a great job of putting the mirror to society and showing the dark undercurrents that exist in our world: "Under The Bridge", "Jeremy", "Man In The Box", "Creep", "Sober", "All Apologies", "Runaway Train", "Everybody Hurts", "Fell On Black Days", the list goes on.

    As a guitarist of 20 years, I know that hearing someone play an acoustic is the best way to tell if they're a good player or not. On an electric, you can get away with some stuff that you can't on an acoustic. These guys were really fucking great. The whole album is awesome. I've listened to it many times over the years.

By the time I was 19-20 people couldn't believe how fast I was on a smooth thin electric. Your hands get so much tougher on acoustic. To play like then song after song they are amazing.

      Man, this album was so unique, it's hard to this day to put it into a defined genre. Hard ass lyrics, gorgeous down-tuned sound-layering, and the vocals... wow!
      I picked this album up, back when it came out, and the next 2 albums as they dropped.
      Years later, I'm at a party, and this dude picks up an acoustic and starts playing a perfect rendition of their work... I was in awe...jaw on the floor.
      We turned off the Mudvayne playlist we had running in the next room and let his sound ring out throughout the house... it was incredible, and while his playing was excellent in all respects... This album made that night happen the way it did. To this day, this band is seared into my memory. Today, I came home with the song "Weapon and the Wound" in mind... started whistling it as I walked through the door from work and minutes later was singing it out loud.
      Now, me, I'm culturally as much of a metalhead as one can get, but this album is metal AF.

The musicianship on this record is incredible and Travis’s voice is like no other’s. It’s a shame that the band had such a short time to shine; they were really something special.

    This is one of those songs I love just as much as I did on the first listen! So freaking good. 🤘 The whole CD on endless repeat back in the day got me thru one of those hide in the closet (everybody's watching me) LSD trips. Something about Travis' voice just got in between my brain cells and stuck there. Hard to explain but it's almost like the remembering of a smell that makes it so vivid when I hear this song STILL so many years later.
