I was skeptical about CKy's 3rd album after their sophomore effort Infiltrate, Destroy, Rebuild completely blew me away and also became the only album that Rolling Stone ever re-reviewed.
But from the first riff of track one i knew they were on pace to blow IDR out of the water.
The start of the track is un-CKy like starting with only drummer Jess Margera's intro, but once the guitars of Chad Ginsburg and vocalist Deron Miller kick in, it is unmistkenably Camp Kill Yourself. No band i have ever heard of mixes the influences of Malevolent Creation, G.G. Allin and classic rock bands so well to create one of the most unique sounds in rock today.
Although they are without a permanent bassist at this point, they have not let that slow their assault on the pussified bands of mainstream radio. It's a shame that their label (Island/DefJam) is just sitting on them and doing nothing to promote them.
This is one of those rare albums that starts hard and carries the momentum throughout all 11 tracks. Unlike IDR which fell slightly after Inhuman Creation Station and ended with an acoustic sounding track, Close Yet Far.
Well worth the 13 bucks i paid
