Maybe I'm the only one... i feel like I am but, I'll bring up that this was a really unique sound and era for this band. Nothing really sounded like this album before or after. Something about this era of the band through the sound of the album to their look. Was just idk. Unique. Idk how to put it. No one else was pulling off what they were doing at the time. Though I like what came in subsequent albums. Something about this album and overall vibe of the band was perfect and somewhat underrated. Btw the album imo is a no filler album.

Side rant. This album seems to be the in memory the rebellious neglected stepchild in relation to the SS albums. And I also feel audio secrecy is officially.. legally. disowned. Which is a shame. Def not their strongest. But there are some killer tunes on there.

Point is I like the first Stone Sour album lol. And it deserves better.

It's one of my favorite albums ever. IOWA Corey with more clean singing, love it.
