pitchfork only gave it a 5.0 but that's not going to stop me from liking it. It was in the FMT a week or 2 ago and I've listened to it a bunch since and really like it. But then again I liked Strays. I think it brings me back to my youth when I snuck into seeing them open up for Iggy Pop and I was only about 10 people in the pit during the very early days of Nothing Shocking. It was a life altering experience. Perry wore old welding goggles, a girdle, fist nets and rubber dishwashing gloves. Dave just sat on his amp the entire time almost completely nodding out but still shredding. I Then met Perry and Henry Rollins a few years when I traveled to see them play Ritual De La Habitual in a small club in Cleveland (The Agora I think). Later that night I saw Eric Avery (original bass player) in the hallway and asked him if he wanted to party with me and my girlfriend since I had a 12 pack of beer and a little weed. He declined, god only knows what he had stockpiled at that time.
