5.0 out of 5 stars The first and the best, December 13, 2004

Contrary to another review, this contains the same mix of You Often Forget that was on the original Wax Trax CD. Now, why they didn't include the Benign Version of that song here (or why it wasn't on the original CD edition), I'll never know. Guess I'll just have to be happy I have the 12"--still.

But, this is industrial the way I like to remember it.... back when it was something new and fresh and you never heard it unless you knew someone who was into it. The kids today might consider this tame, but at least it's not another lame rap/metal hybrid. The kids claim Evanescense is breaking new ground when KMFDM did the same thing a decade beforehand, and better (female vocals over heavy music).

Guess I'm just old. :) Regardless, if you don't have this disc, g'ahead and get it.

Big Sexy Land could be the best industrial album ever. From the first song to the last song the album's beats never stop. This addition also adds the 12" single You Often Forget which was never previously available on compact disc. It's hard to believe that this album is almost 20 years old because almost every once of these tracks could still be played at any club and bring down this house and make people wonder, what is this!

For mid-80's "industrial" (or what we used to call industrial), this album is unbelievable - it's a Must Have, along with Minstry's Twitch. Seriously, you don't get the music that set the stage for Nine Inch Nails if you don't have this album. Brilliant (and this from a guy who was in Chicago in the mid-80's at clubs like Medusa's, Cabaret Metro/Smart Bar, Exit Club, etc.).
