"Welcome to the pollitical intellectual music of Australia's most eccentric artist known as Snog. David Thrussell is the creator, singer, songwriter, and primary musician of this verry original band. The music combines spaghetti western, industrial beats, and on this album there is a touch of elctroclash and synth pop. The lyrics are major anti-Bush administration, anti-capitalism, anti-corporations, and some of the songs are just about the harsher side of reality such as death and war, etc., etc.,...a verry good album. The vocals are not unlike Tom Waits, or Leonored Cohen, and musically Snog deserves far more credit for their influence on the slightly more populur band Puscifer (who kind of sound like Snog only not as good). The song "Christmas Everday" is worth the price of the album alone. What I love the most about this band is that they truly are original....truly. So many artist in elctronica sound the same...Snog actually sounds like a whole new style of elctro music. Anyways, buy this album...yes! Buy it! Great album!!!"
