Made Out Of Babies may be on Neurot Records but they sound nothing, nothing, nothing, like Neuorsis. Now, I like both MOOB and Neuorsis very much, but please don't be confused be the last reviewer comparison, there are virtually no similarites between the two, IN FACT MOOB SOUNDS ALMOST NOTHING LIKE ANY GROUP IN THE ENTIRE NEUROT FAMILY. I would personally liken the group to acts more like, Jucifer or Refused. 4 stars only because the album is a little short.

Imagine calling a woman a riot grrl? Now imagine the skin off your testicle sack underneath her nails. "Trophy" was a bulldozer occasionally treading around the sides of the barnyard gobbling up all the farm animals in its trek. "Coward" is a semi crossing the great American terrain without brakes. "Silverback" rips open the album with the guitar sounding like a saw cutting through a thick birch's trunk like a newborn. It segues almost like part one into "Proud To Drown" with Xmas crooning "I can feel your insides shake" between fits of heavy breathing. Keep your hands where I can see them! "Fed" reinforces evidence that Xmas employs lots of restraint and control vocally, a lot more than credit recognizes. "Mandatory Bedrest" is the sh.. too but I don't remember much right now. "Deadth In April" is the grimm fairy tale that MOoB specialize in, like the Bad Seeds with a much heavier Hitchcock than Southern Gothic influence. Which makes way for "Out". As the closer for "Trophy", "Out" was the teaser that pulled out right before you reached that point. Yeah, that point. It starts out exactly as the original then rips open into the sweatiest hardcore love song to one's reflection ever. Its just so freaking grimy like dopesick loving. And while you imagine catching your breath, "Mr. Prison Shanks" pushes the bedroom door open and has his way with your wife while you cower in a dark corner crying and stroking yourself raw. All of this love-hate culminates in "Gunt", the kind of song Isis would make if someone held the barrel of a gun up its rectum and it went hysterical out of liking it too much. Steve Albini, legend and louse, did what he does best in recording all the ferocity and balance that is MOoB. The sound is bigger, more direct. Even cooler, the CD package includes lyrics. So read along as "rats do major construction". You don't have anything better to do. Admit it. Do it!

A very powerful band, this album shows exactly why they are on Neurot Records....If you love Neurosis, then Made Out Of Babies is a band you need to hear..Heavy riffs and powerful female vocals make Coward one of my favorites...Buy and you won't be let down...hell, buy trophy too...!
