This band has managed to get themselves banned in both Germany and Japan for the questionable lyrical content on 2000's Nihil, which still remains the finest performance of our dearly departed Alexi Laiho (Children Of Bodom, also see: the Metal Storm logo). "Brutal music needs brutal lyrics," as vocalist Mika Luttinen tends to argue, and sure, this album opens with a short blast of a song, the title of which translates into "Pissed To The Utter Maximum", and involves lyrics such as "After I buried you I jerked myself off and shouted that I am god!". Unsavoury indeed, but there is no denying the insane conviction and catchiness of songs like the black power ballad "Blood Is Thicker Than Water", the bass-driven craziness of "Let's Fucking Die", and the unforgettable hardcore/D-beat-cum-black-metal of the classic "Ghettoblaster". Whether you're offended or not by Impaled Nazarene, you can't deny the absolute impact and catchiness on display here, and it's a joy to listen to from start to finish. Such a joy that I have the vinyl framed on my wall. Suomi Finland Perkele! "Ghettoblaster, nerve gas, KILL!"

Noticeably this album is the first from the band to feature versatile songwriting, as well as a well-integrated appreciation of punk and rock'n'roll influences. The aggression is still there in spades but most of these songs are more accessible than anything on the band's first two full-lengths. I enjoy the mid-paced "Total War-Winter War" and strangely melancholic "Blood is Thicker than Water" over everything else however.
