Rating: Altered States Of America. Can madness be accompanied by genius?
Well yes, folks, it absolutely can, and without invoking real past geniuses who brought madness to music, we can talk about a huge musical folly for this record. In the best way, because it's a rabid madness, I would even venture to say calculated, that makes up this album. The peculiarity? 100 songs. All under one minute long, totaling about twenty minutes of grind.
Drum machines pushed to the impossible, intensely distorted guitars, occasional and, imagine that, ludicrous samples, furiously and relentlessly fast. Some resemble songs, others are just spoken titles. Surely, no track is normal. What to say? There's not much else to add, do the track-by-track review yourself.
Meanwhile, listen to these altered states of America. Brilliant.
Tracklist Lyrics and Videos
01 Spreading the Dis-Ease (00:56)
Roll down the window,
I need a breath of fresh shit.
Assume the worst,
and be amazed to disgust.
There is really no preparing yourself,
no day is without incident anymore.
Action is bad acting.
Everything's a fuckin' hassle.
Tomorrow you'll care less.
How can this nonsense be a tragedy?
What's to feel?
Fuck you
for even making me have to think today.
02 Ark of Ecoterrorism (00:13)
Noah Bin Laden- introducing contraband
insect and animal species into areas
devoid of natural predators.
Natural selection is fought
out in defoliated forests;
future nature begins to flourish and
everything begins to change.
04 Thawing Out (00:15)
Examples of barbarism,
miss what you mock.
Slight pause to vomit.
Advocating organ harvesting,
equal opportunity destroyer.
Spontaneous combustion.
07 Children Blown to Bits by the Busload (00:12)
This is complete nihilism,
wrapped in a Zionist plot.
With exploding school buses.
12 Famous Last Words (00:18)
Chaos has something special.
Hit the curb hard,
just as intended.
Vitality, balance,
perfect control.
40-degree cooler.
Absolute right, wrong intention.
19 Crawling Out of the Cradle Into the Casket (00:15)
Death in installments,
you start fuckin' dying
the day you're fuckin' born.
26 Mahikari (00:12)
Mahikari; the Japanese new religion
that proclaimed itself the leader of a
Chosen People
that opened the gates to Aum,
who is planning a coming global
Armageddon.
28 Crop Dusting (00:12)
Japan's Aum doomsday cult,
that masterminded
the fatal nerve gas attack
on Tokyo subways,
considered spraying the drug LSD
from the sky.
30 Illegal Manufacture (00:08)
The sect was making LSD,
mescaline, amphetamines,
and other illegal drugs
at the cult's facilities.
31 Drugging the Control Group (00:10)
Aum spiritual leader Shoko Asahara
ordered the production of the drugs
as part of his strategy
to control members of the cult.
33 Apocalypse as Mescaline Experience (00:10)
The book of the dead is a trip
and the apocalypse describes
mescaline experience.
48 Rectal Thermometer (00:11)
A young child when sodomized
will shut down all systems.
A young infant who is sodomized
immediately goes to sleep.
51 Bombs With Butterfly Wings (00:09)
They implanted bombs in their stomachs
and then they started to talk
their tummies would feel funny.
They knew the bombs were activated.
64 Neural Linguistic Programming (00:12)
With every song on this CD
you will feel more and more compelled
to lose faith in yourself
and in everything around you.
71 Firearms for All Faiths (00:12)
We have psychedelic shotguns,
mystical weapons for Hindus,
Buddhists,
Jews
and Christians.
80 Unbound by Civilized Properties (00:08)
Vomit on a wino's whiskers,
the savage nomad
shits himself standing up.
81 They All Burned! (00:12)
Most were heavyset
feeling bad
yellow with age
armchair is gone.
84 Exacting Revenge on Pets (00:08)
Crack my fucking dog's head wide open.
Dogs just like a fuckin' woman,
hit 'em and they just love you more.
86 Narcoterrorist Megalomaniac (00:25)
There's so much money in guns and drugs
I could have anyone killed
with a phone call.
South American women
being torn apart by huge cats
for my masturbatory amusement.
Nothing like paying for a four thousand
dollar boob job on a third world slut
and have it ravaged by albino tigers.
While having another slut on your dick
trying to disprove her expandability.
87 Releasing a Dove From a Ghetto Rooftop (00:08)
Holy Roman orgy, fondlers of the cloth.
Catholic schools i.d. possible elementary
level queer stock.
Gay, shamed and guilted over to god,
slipping the white collar over fresh cock.
This is the semen of your salvation,
bent over the fuckin' cross.
90 A Chance at Reprisal (00:15)
I gave you a chance at reprisal
And you didn't take it
I am going to send you to hell!
92 Pin the Tail on the Donkey (00:21)
You can talk to the police,
you can talk to the press,
you can talk to the politicians-
I don't care man.
What we're doing here is so bizarre;
no one will ever believe you.
95 Absurd Boast (00:10)
I was getting my cock sucked
when the plane collided into the second tower.
She spit my nut up
and wiped her mouth
with the American flag.
98 Obi Wan Kaczynski (00:12)
Opening a letter bomb with a light saber
so you can feel the force.
Ashes and anthrax
slowly settle on unused technology.
The age has come to invoke
catastrophe on the sand people.

By andre86
This CD contains 100 songs in about 20 minutes.
This CD can therefore be considered a fun and claustrophobic critique of society in all its facets, whether you like it or not.
By Insect_Reject
An inferno made of alcohol, drugs, and madness, lots of madness.
A colossus of 100 tracks in just 20 minutes, exaggeration, denial and cancellation of melody and song form.
