I have come to the conclusion that many of these influencial hip-hop bands are unknown to me because of their terrible names. There'll be another example later on. I had hopes for this record when it started, but by the end it had been dragging for a while and I was relieved when it was over.
Of course I was only familiar with the festive classic, 'Killing In The Name', which is really just an angry version of 'With God On Our Side' and I expected to be quie dismissive of this album, but it was suprisingly interesting to hear.
There's a book you may or may not have heard of called '1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die'. Here is my attempt to do just that. Follow my progress from Frank Sinatra to Arcade Fire as I write my thoughts and feelings about each album.
