I'll start by saying that I've listened to Rollins for about three years. The one reason I got into it was because his music and spoken word were hard and right in your face! Nothing but the opposite with this bomb, though. If you're looking for killer riffs, charging lyrics, and an overall intense sound, this is not it. Like a fine wine, Henry Rollins has gotten better with age. However, if you like his early stuff, you just might dig it.
