One Bad Pig- Smash


















now i know a lot of people thought this band was crap. i know it. but i love em. they were funny, loud and intense all at the same time. i liked the David Bowie feel to the lyrics, and even tho the distortion sounded like it was on one of those old RAT peddles, it was still great rock. i remember this being one of the only tapes the girls in my youth group liked too. hahaha. i think it was the beat in 'Don't Be Fooled'. it always got the room dancing, with kinda freaked the rest of the church out but whatever. now of course i was totally blown away by 'Isaiah 6', 'Looney Toon' and 'Godarchy' but i don't think i was prepared for 'I'm Not Getting Any Older'. the minute the drums started i was sold on that song, but it was the last part of the song that really got me jumping around and slamming into people. i loved when he just started yelling at the end. it was so cool to here this crazy church guy just yelling it out for God. the best line is "i always feared my dying breath, but i let it out and life was mine.". Pretty cool album. if you got into them then got out, i encourage you to give them another chance. if you never heard them, but have room in your theology for the ridiculous and the beautiful, then check them out, brotha.
