Haven't I professed my love for this record?
If not, let me do it again.
This thing rocks so much balls that I'm right back in '92, creaming on new Jesus Lizard and Barkmarket discs once again. It reminds me that I need to update last year's Baker's Dozen list, because this fucker is right up in there.
The new video is directed by Chad VanGaalen, whose Diaper Island was also a winner not too long ago.
And more tour dates below. These guys are going to kill themselves with exhaustion. Seriously, they have been on the road nonstop since last Fall, and the shit they do requires some conditioning.
Especially that drummer. Dude's a beast.
Anyho, the release:
