5.0 out of 5 stars Kudos Amazon for carrying more than the "basics", April 7, 1999

I found this C.D. in a bargain bin about 5 years ago...This is brilliant stuff I have no idea where these people have gone or why they're not making music anymore.. This C.D. blisters and oozes pure talent. I feel like there my own private dirty little secret. If anyone knows anything about them or what they're doing now DO TELL!!!!!

This album really should have been big. There's really nothing not to like about it. If I were to characterize it stylistically, I would have to say, "Nine Inch Nails meets the B-52's." The sound is hard but playful, with an abundance of experimentation characteristic of either of the aforementioned bands. Meatplow was also one of the few bands I've heard with a sense of humor that didn't render it inane and an angry edge that didn't render it pretentious or brain-dead. Basically, if you enjoy the kinda-sorta industrial NIN sound but find Trent Reznor's pseudo-spookiness annoying, then this is the perfect album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sexuality drips like an instrument...., April 18, 1999

I saw Ethyl Meatplow at the second Lollapolluza Festival on one of the side stages, and they just blew me away. It was a hot day, and I remember that even Carla had her shirt off, which is just something she would do.... Anyway, this album is awsome and unique and they have great bass sounds that vibrate your speakers and shake your brains around. I, as does the other reviewer, wish they would do some more stuff.
