It just leaked and I gave it the first listen and thought it sucks big time.

Anyone else here it yet what do you feel? I think they need to drop the god hating over the top bullshit.

anti religion lyrics are great.

more bands should be against something.

Agreed, but (assuming you heard the album) you have to admit they did go pretty damn over the top. Especialy in the song cult.
 
Yes they do over do it and who said the instruments sounded like shit? its the same instrumental style as they have always been!

I think the album is good overall.
 
The album is nothing spectacular but it is not bad either. Not somehting I would rush out to buy but if I had some spare cash I would consider picking it up.

They went over the top with their disdain and hatred of Christianity back during the 1980's when the Fundamentalist Republicans were trying to control things in public policy. Being that the Republicans are back in office, they have plenty to rail against once again.

i think it's time for a more intelligent approach given that nobody (not even most christians) is seriously offended by those kind of lyrics any more though
