maybe he started screaming because he came to terms with the fact that he can't sing worth fucking shit. or, maybe it was catalyzed by the replacement of the guitarist. i dunno.

it's another baby step overall in terms of being interesting, but it still broadly sucks. it might have been better if pared down to an ep....

that said, i'm not going to deconstruct the lyrics. i don't have the time; it's not interesting enough to hook me.

but, if the first record was an F and the second was a D-, they at least eek out a weak C- for the first time, here.
