I bought this album (the cassette tape version, remember them?) when it came out in 1993. Some years later, I wore out the tape and bought the CD. A single month has never gone by without me giving this album a spin. 6FS's other albums are great as well, but this one remains my favorite, hands down. That's not to say that it suits everyone's taste; my wife hates it, for example. But if you're looking for some spacey, angry, high-energy rock that still sounds fresh some 12 years later, pick it up.

This CD has been in my normal rotation for 5 or 6 years and I still haven't even started to get tired of it. I don't know how to describe it... I'd call it angry sci-fi rock... Whatever you want to call it, it is up to you... Somebody once told me that when they tour they do free shows at prisons. If you've ever been in prison maybe you've seen them live... If I was stuck in a cell for the rest of my life this is what would be playing in my head. SIX FINGER SATELLITE!

This is one of those bands that nobody seems to have heard of and that really should have gotten more credit for a sound that is pretty unique. Really hard to categorize, but given their mid-tempo guitar-centric approach, I guess you could call it rock... but you'd be doing this band - and release - a severe disservice. Somehow these guys project a feeling of mental illness and madness that kinda sorta reminds me of how the Jesus Lizard feels/ felt - kinda creepy and unsavory ( that's a good thang), without really sounding like same. Check it out.
