maggots the record made me actually take note of global warming that only now is being addressed, so who says there's nothing to learn from rock and roll? r.i.p. w.o.w.

Want to know what's ironic (or worse)? At around the time Maggots was made Tipper Gore, Mr. Nobel Prize Al Gore's wife (who lived in a home using more energy than somehting like 20 average American homes at the time he won it) was holding Wendy's records up as ones that should have warning labels on them and kept away from young people.

@bluescat59 When so many of Al (Wh)ore's supporters in 2000 were rappers, Tipper mellowed down her rhetoric and the PMRC's voice faded. HMMMM....makes you wonder.....

@grimorkh Yeah, it's ludicrous that this isn't held up as a classic by more people.

It has an amazing sound, the most brutal lyrics I've ever heard (if you actually think about them. really heavy existential shit), and the songs are so heavy it's just face-ripping.

"You're a Zombie" is like black metal before black metal.

I need the vinyl... to hang on my wall.

I've got this on vinyl for ages and didn't really care much about it, since it came as a gift for subscribing a Metal mag - and my turntable is done for. I downloaded the MP3s some 2 weeks ago just out of curiosity/nostalgia, and was like "Oh sh*t this album is totally EPIC, how come I never noticed it?!" RIP Wendy O.

@v1e1r1g1e1 Actually mr. smartypants. the punk prophets of the day DKennedys and the like were predicting a twisted future. WW3 is coming. They never breakup a set. ur useless fodder.

[Aniva66]

[therandyj]

Hands down my favorite Plasmatics album! Thanks for posting. Wishing Wendy was still with us but, respecting her choice to check out when and how she chose.
