ANGEL RAT

As nothingface, this record broke the spell and beacme a No1 hit for at least for 8 weeks (as long as i remember) A more commercial approach from the band, and a more focused lyrical statement. This record is by far better than son many post-glam prog-metal acts (no names required). The open song is an instant magnet, leading you into a whole story a-la Tim BUrton, and yes, they are good at that, i mean it, "the prow" an "golem" are pure jewels of alternative-meets-prog-meets-metal, perhaps, the "weakest" part is the very alternative "clouds in my house". In so many cases, Voivod is a very serious band that has fought against oblivion and member changes, that in the end, beacme a very strong force in music. Cheers, and enjoy
