2nd pre-order track, Heel Turn 2, is available now. I've got a really good feeling about this batch of songs.

If it's half as good as Transcendental Youth it'll be one of the best records of the year. He is at his peak right now.
― kornrulez6969, Thursday, 12 March 2015 21:51 (eleven years ago)
I should say "they" instead of he, because Jon Wurster's drumming is a huge part of their sound.
It really is that good.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 12 March 2015 22:00 (eleven years ago)
Okay so "Chavo Guerrero" didn't really grab me, but "Heel Turn" is a whole different ballpark -- truly one for the ages.

― are... are you saying you fucked a gazelle? (slothroprhymes), Monday, 30 March 2015 14:48 (eleven years ago)
The second half doesn't stick as well as the first, but I love"The Legend of Chavo Guerrero," "Foreign Object," and "Southwestern Territory.

I will check out the choke-out. Cool to see it's in a different setting than Wolf In White Van, which I'm currently captivated by (thinking about ordering Master of Reality).

i really like thisi definitely like MGs when there's a concept or theme to the record, or those tend to be my favs
