I sorta agree, a few painful vocal moments here. Even if I think he sounded okay for the most part
I thought the album was alright in my first listen, Governed By Contagion and the last track are really good.

Haven't listened to the album yet, probably will sometime tonight. I liked the singles, I expect I'll like the album.

I kinda feel like you're being pretty harsh on "I think I'll drop a dime," didn't bother me at all.

I didn't mean I had a problem with the lyrics; it's the sound. Listening to Cedric's horrible delivery of that line with no music makes me cringe.

This thread was hard to find.

Governed by Contagions is a great song.

Relationship of Command has mysteriously vanished from my selected method of music listening. WTF.

Relationship of Command turns 20 years old today and still sounds as fresh and relentless as ever.

Classic fucking record.
