...the roasted pheasant being Shai Hulud...with a new singer under their belt (or so I've heard) this was a big thing to pull off...did they do it well? Most definetely...

...Shai Hulud seem to do something that I struggle to find with their music...they create dual moods...the instrumentals at the beginning would tell you that this was a happy punk song and the melodies are pulled off flawlessly...but suddenly this voice comes along and knocks it all down with it's insane agression and anger it breaks out of the mold the instruments have given it and runs on a rampage...the instruments are the city...the vocals are godzilla...

...now unfortunately the whole score of this is brought down by the slap of cold meat next to it...yes...Another Victim...who have absolutely nothing interesting about them...they ignore the dual moods system and just act like "Grr...we're hardcore give us a record contract!!!!" And the whole thing I've just heard before a hundred times...so it didn't pique my interest at all...

...all in all you should buy it if you like Shai Hulud...but my reccomendation would be to download their songs so you can just cut off the cold meat all together...no one likes food poisoning...

great cd. the shai hulud tracks are great. the original song is amazing. the covers of bad religion and NOFX are great as well. the another victim side is straight up moshcore. the SSD cover is so good. does the boston band justice. a definite pick up. standout tracks: linoleum, set your body ablaze, and boiling point.

I think Shai Hulud is the best band ever and their new album should be incredible because I havn't heard a bad song by them yet. I don't really like the covers they do of NOFX and Bad Religion though, mainly because those songs have dumb lyrics. But Set Your Body Ablaze is proof Shai Hulud is as good as ever with Geert as their new vocalist. I recommend all their other releases over this one but it's still worth buying for that song alone if you're as big a fan as I am.
