Killing songs: First two songs
Rap cannot be merged with metal, don't you think so ?
Well ... it looks actually that almost everything can be merged together
(at least when it comes to music). Stuck Mojo is among the first
to have open this path. Even though I have never been into this metal
style, I have to admit that last Stuck Mojo's record, Declaration
Of A Headhunter, impressed me a little bit.
Violate This, 10 years of rarities (1991-2001) starts with two
killers .... two fucking great songs : Ten Years & Revolution
but what follows after is far to be as impressive as the beginning.
The cover from Iron Maiden (Wrathchild) is a complete
disaster and the one taken from Motley Crüe is an insult
to the original one : how can anybody destroy this beautiful song, Shout
At The Devil.
I guess you have to be into this metal style to fully appreciate this
"new" Stuck Mojo. Where Declaration Of A Headhunter
was a quite surprise, this Violate This is "filled"
with new and old songs, alternate versions, strange covers and overall
the vocals are out of time, out of place !!!
I hope for them they will correct that on their next release, because
this one is a small disapointment.
