Reviewed by T A Sutherland
Although this isn't a particularly ground breaking album, it does have a pull-no-punches street level message that is unusually stark and disturbing. Vizunari shows a creative flair and utilises a variety of samples and ear catching loops, though the message takes centre stage most times. A better balance between lyrics and toons would have avoided the predictability of filla on some of this album. In closing, tracks such as "Click Of A Button" and "Tragedy" are explicitly provocative to remind us of the devastating ravages of sin. Disturbing stuff for disturbing times.
