my favourite bat album is bat 2... cause it's a fantastic album with pretty much something for everyone... the songs are simply first class, lyrically, musically, vocally... it reaches out to me in a way the more recent material has yet to, it reached deeply into my soul, my heart, my head... those aren't songs that meat performs... those are songs meat sings about ME... each and everyone is a story, and in each story i see parts of ME, only the songs aren't about Me, they are songs about all of us..
from a music perspective there is a great mixture of styles... you just need to listen... almost 20 years on i'm still finding new guitar licks... it's one of meats heaviest albums musically, only the production is layered and in places so delicate, it really doesn't become apparent...
nearly 20 years on, im still in love with it... yeah theres a couple of things i'd have preferred done differently, but as an overall package... First class!!!
as a benchmark, thats the album i use
(and as bat 2 generation, probably inevitable)
