5.0 out of 5 stars 12/4/1990!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, September 24, 2000

Think of what else was out during the time this album was cut. It still sounds better than most out there today. This band shines live. You MUST see their live show.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Industrial Classic, July 27, 2005

My purchase of this album was to replace my old copy which I originally got in the early 90's but which got worn out (!)

Meat Beat Manifesto typify the best Industrial has to offer - gritty, listenable beats and lyrics that demonstrate an intelligent, if cynical, perspective on modern culture and consumerism.

99% isn't as polished as, and the messages are a lot more sketchy than those on, the later "Satyricon" (which is truly a monumental album), however for those of us that like catchy industrial music which keeps your mind surfing on the edge of the subversive, you couldn't ask for better.

Helter Skelter/Dogstar Man is best enjoyed on an empty dancefloor at 2am in the morning in your local alternative club.

5.0 out of 5 stars not the BEST mbm per se, but certainly the definitive one, December 15, 1999

that's right, Actual Sounds & Voices is light years ahead of this album, but then, it was released an entire decade afterward for cripes sakes. lots of samples, lots of distortion, plenty of funky guitars and jazzy horns to be trademark MBM. best song is 10x The Speed of Love.
