Great, refreshing and original funky metal.The basslines are incredibly groovy and the hole sound is tight. Special emphasis to the the coverversion of Led Zepplin's 'Immigrant song'. Never heard such a witty interpretation.

This little collection has a few real gems on it, however, there's also quite a bit of stuff that could have been left off. There is some demo material and some live tracks that lack luster, although they do provide a little insight into the band and give a slight glimpse of their live sound. There are a few tracks which really stand out well - it validates the purchase of the CD - especially if you're already a fan of I.G. or S.T. If this is your first experience with I.G., I would strongly recommend their first "The Plague That Makes Your Booty Move" CD - this will have a greater impact than this CD or the one that followed this one. Sarsippius III returns to narrate this CD, instead of simply annoying security in their first release. This band rocks - the guitarist is phenomenal - bass is unbelievable - drummer is very enthusiastic. Awesome!

This album is simply awasome! Drums, Guitars ... not to mention the FUNKY BASS. YEaa...

I love the Immigrant Song. I can't belove how much they changed it but it still sounds as the cover.

Don't Stop Sphread The Jam ... listen to the bass line on 0:25
Three Headed Mind Pollution ... is a nice fast tempo song

Actually, just listen to all the songs, they are awasome.

An amazing blend of metal and funk, but without that late 80s vibe their first album had. While "The Plague that Makes your Booty Move" was an amazing album, the 80s synth elements diluted it a touch. This album fixes this issue.

The slap bass is a masterpiece as usual thanks to Mr. Trujillo. The guitar is not unlike the face paced precise style of Suicidal Tendencies with funky highlights.Cyco Mike drops some fresh lyrics too, never taking himself too seriously.

The album hits hard but is not as heavy as "Groove Family Cyco", it's probably the most balanced album the grooves released. If you're a fan of any type of creative, non-bland metal, this is a great album to check out.

This is an album that I have to break out from time to time just to get my fix. An absolutely overlooked gem. It's Mike Muir and Robert Trujillo from Suicidal Tendencies taking it to a maxed out funk level. Think Red Hot Chili Peppers on steroids (heavier, not funkier). This album is worth having just for the cover of "Immigrant Song" alone.

Sometimes really heavy, always super funky, this is a great party album. You can't feel bad while listening to this album.

While not as good an overall offering as some of their other efforts, this CD has some funky jams on it and lots of the humor from the first release.

I played this at least once a day for about a year! As a fan of SxTx and I.G. this to me was great. A great mix of heavy rhythms teeming with tha fonk and obscure but clever and fun lyrics. Very musical but very hard/smooth.
I also recommend Groove Family Cyco which is the best sounding album they did. Violent and Funky has to be an absolute classic.
Hardcore - and then they swich it to the smooth, it's the Infectious Grooves. PEACE X

this is a good album from the infectious,two real good cover song
fame from bowie and imigrant song (amazing cover) from zepplin
some out take record from the first album and some good live track!
if you like infectious you will love it but it not as good as grooves family cyco!!

This cd rocks. One minute it your shaking your booty to 70's style funk and the next you are lacing up your boots and trying to start a pit in the living room. I also love the extra heavy cover of the David Bowie classic Fame. Anyone who is a fan of Suicidal Tendencies should check this disk out

Loved this album so much back in the day when a friend gave it to me, that I wore it out! Disc was so played it looked like it had been rubbed on the concrete! Interludes funny as hell, and the music.....epic! I loved it so much, had to buy it again! SPRECK! Enjoy!
