THE REVIEW

Sick Of It All are like a train.    

A train that has been running at more or less supersonic speed for over 20 years, without often stopping or slowing down to wait for someone, any latecomers.    

In 2010, "Based On A True Story" comes out, a full 4 years after the previous "Death To Titans."    

“Innovations?” - “Where?” “When?”    

“Changes?” “Special effects?” - “Eh???” “Differences, even minimal, between one song and another?” - “No no, we're not there at all!”    

But I always like to be run over by this train!    

...Based on a true story -
