the record has a hard time regaining my attention after that
Agree with this, these are embarrassing lyrics, and made much more egregious by being the first words you hear
I mean, he could be referring to anything, not necessarily politics -- e.g. he often writes about religious indoctrination -- but I kind of wish he'd grounded it more clearly in that, or anything (I suppose the title "Genesis" might point to religion but please, Chino, use the potential of that title in your actual lyrics)
I feel as if Private Music does all of this better in every way

On to Gore. This already much better than Ohms, but Jeeeeeeesus does it need a remaster. The production/mixing sounds dreadful

Yeah Gore is very good, I've been sleeping on this one a bit. "Hearts / Wires" and "L(MIRL)" are particularly great

Three songs is pretty standard, dawg. They have like a million albums.

I know, and normally I wouldn't even want to hear a bunch of new songs, but this album is so good!
