5.0 out of 5 stars the feeling spectrum, May 17, 2004

I love this record. I have never heard a record that touches on so many feelings without sounding pretentious or contrived. The sincerity I feel from the music and voice is really what makes me such a huge fan of Today is the Day. It just sounds so real and honest. I definitely hear the influence of this record in bands like converge and deadguy. It has that noise-metal-mathy vibe with a strong sense of early 90's indie rock. Steve Austin is so friggin "into" what he does, I just cant help but love it. I have massive respect for that guy. WILLPOWER will not leave you dissapointed. It's like Nine Inch Nails in attitude, but a hell of a lot more scary. This record is very intense, yet somehow accessible. You can actually sing along to it. infact you can sing along to all Today is the Day records. I recommend all of them, but this one really got to me in a way few records do. Man I love this record.

5.0 out of 5 stars For the Pain of Living., August 4, 1999

Still the most chaotic, ugly, beautiful, sad, angry, and powerful record of all time. Today is the Day at their finest.

This review is from: Willpower (Audio CD)

I got this CD when it first came out,and was a fan of "Supernova" TITD's first album also.I was totally down with a lot of the Amphetamine Reptile bands of that era(Helmet,Hammerhead,Chokebore ETC.)so naturally I picked this one up.............I was completely BLOWN AWAY!This album still ranks as my favorite TITD album,and I've followed Steve Austin's constantly rotating band changes since,but nothing compares to the shear terror,angst,and isolated feelings of this one.More recent TITD albums have a little too much lock-step metal-by-numbers riffs for my taste.This album comes of as a prog rock masterpiece that was lost from the 70's (that's a compliment by the way.)This album still gives me chills down my spine...........especially at EXTREME volume,and after consuming enough Bourbon.
