Damn, I love this classic Voivod song. Phobos, Nothingface, War & Pain, Killing Technology, and Angel Rat are Voivod's best albums. R.I.P. Piggy, not just for your legacy, creativity, and big heart, but for your legendary psychedelically heavy guitar playing, you awesome dude.

Maybe this music is more minimal than hatross and nothingface era, but hear it well...

There is much than it seems under the surface.

pigy showed tommy from prong how to play in this way.

[spiralingcrazies]

Great song. I for one, liked Eric's contribution to the band.

i don't get why Eric Forrest is more regarded as a vocalist. He uses that aggressive growl/screech style better than just about anyone else who uses it. Unlike most of them, however, you can understand Eric perfectly.

If you think you can tell everything about this album, this is just a mutilated song. Listen to the whole deal. TRUST ME IT'S BRILLIANT.

Yeah dudes this album is really good...late in the game for a metal album...i think they really helped carry metal into the year 2000..i really think Pantera and Metallica are weak compared to this stuff...wereas most metal groups (even to this day)..find a buzz sound and rape the ^%#& out of it for popularity..not VoiVod they are to the core...there are no RATM clones here!...and i agree wit that comment so heavy...this was the heaviest i have ever heard in parts of the album

[outsider2316]

so heavy

[moldren]

the only time i've ever seen voivod live was with eric forest singing. they were so tight, and eric's voice is amazing, live. i love negatron and phobos .

I liked this album better than Negatron, too. It's what King Crimson would sound like if they played metal. The best of the Forrest era. It's an easy listen, but presents its own shades of complexity and wonder.

you should listen to the entire album, it's really not one to split into separate tracks, esp not when cut for a video. it has a vibe like no other, like the soundtrack to the scariest sci-fi movie never made. I've been a VoiVod fan for 25 years, and IMO that album ties with Hatross as their best.

im not a fan of eric forest but this album kick some serious ass! badass till the end voivod lives!!
