I haven't listened to the album as whole for ages but it certainly soundtracked a chunk of time and memory (loss).

I love Auto Pilot quite a bit.

It's Nick's material like Tension Head that sounds completely drug wrought and at times almost unmusical in comparison to what came before it or after it.

Listening back to Nick's Mondo Generator debut, he really only succeeded when he was leaning on Josh. The only songs on that record worth a damn are the ones Josh plays on.

Nick's screaming just isn't as endearing as he obviously thinks it is. I mean, it's art, but most of the time it only has one thing to say.

Auto Pilot > Better Living Through Chemistry > Monsters In The Parasol?

All 3 are pretty outstanding to me. Lanegan, Classic Homme riff, and then a groove of a song.

Yeah there's nothing wrong with R's midsection.

Permission to treat trag as a hostile witness.

Quick and to the Pointless
Tension Head
Hispanic Impressions
I Was a Teenage Hand Model
Six Shooter

I mean, both Trag and zeb are way off base. Nick's harsher vocals absolutely rule.

Maybe you're just a pussy?

Maybe.

Are you sure you're not confusing Chemistry for a different tune?

Lock it up.

Sitting with the Rated R LP right now. And guys this album is almost perfect. If they had Born To Hula instead of one of the Oliveri tunes, that would do it.
