This record actually got me into NY Hardcore and not into Nu Metal. I wouldn't compare it to Disturbed's Sickness, though. I think you can't really compare it to any CD's out there, it's just so fucking unique. The atmosphere and the agressional power just blasted me away when I was 12 and still impresses me. And songs like "Man with a promise" and "Business" opened my eyes about the music business when I was young. BIOHAZARD DOWN FOR LIFE!!! ]]> 6910@blogcritics.org Fri, 4 Apr 2003 08:44:04 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/10/07/135642.php#comment-1282 "The only CD I've heard since this one came out that even holds a candle to the raw agression and power is Disturbed's The Sickness and even that great album falls short." Interesting comparison. I've had the Biohazard and Disturbed albums for a few years now, and in my humble opinion the two aren't remotely comparable in terms of aggression and power. Something more like Pantera's Vulgar Display of Power, Sepultura's Roots, etc. Of course, those albums didn't follow the nu-metal/rapcore footsteps set forth by Biohazard, but if yer gonna grade something on it's level of intensity and stark emotional power, I wouldn't pick Disturbed for a list of the top 50. It may roll some eyes, but my first thought would be to compare it to Limp Bizkit's Three Dollar Bill Y'all. Anyway, cheers for the trip down early-90's memory lane. I've got that CD on my MP3 playlist at home. I think it's time I fired it up again! >=) -Drizzten ]]> 1282@blogcritics.org Mon, 7 Oct 2002 17:52:14 EDT
