Album Description: MSI's music is a hybrid of Atari driven electronics with a venomous splash of ADD punk rock. There are three different versions of this release: a 10 track explicit version with a video for 'You'll Rebel To Anything', an 11 track clean version with a video of 'Diabolical', and an 11 track extra heavy double vinyl version. The clean and vinyl formats have two entirely different bonus tracks and all three have their own individual artwork, so true collectors will think nothing of owning them all. 'MSI are, to me, how punk rock should sound in the 21st century: abrasive, brilliant, and sounding like no one else'--Rhys Fulber (Front Line Assembly). '...one of the most creative and genre-swirling outfits on the scene'--Serj Tankian (System Of A Down).

Rating: - MSI Rock! Shame about the recording,...
Was first introduced to Mindless Self Indulgence by a friend, who passed me a copy of the cd,
Unfortunately, if youre a fan of the band, then don't under any circumstance by this version the album as anything that maybe the american market could deem to be slightly offensive has been missed off leaving you with a recording that just has random gaps in it throughout the entire album.
Fine, its my own fault for not reading the description properly but this has sincerely spoiled ... Read More
Rating: - Explicit version is a great album but very poor and underhanded marketing!
**This review was originally made for the uncensored version, see my advice below for buying considerations**
I'll break this review in to three parts. First, the review of the album itself. Second, the review of the tactics used by MSI and Metropolis Records to sell this album. Lastly, my advice on getting everything that should have been included on one album.
1. The review of the album:
Simply put, if you like previous MSI albums, Babyland or stuff like Korn you'll ... Read More
Rating: - Buy this Crap (*don't support censorship only get unedited*)
What do you get when you steal a bulldozer then hunt down the band Atari Teenage Riot (*put tape over their mouths*) and squash then into mush, you scoop that mush up and toss it in a pot, very satisfying indeed but you need something else and so you're off again, next you happen along the world invader music group GWAR, and maybe not exactly what you were looking for but you think "what the heck", they try to fight back with their giant swords and huge phalluses but you put (*tape over their mouths*) run them ...

Censoring MSI I thought would really suck but the truth is it still sounds awesome and with more real lyrics in this cd not a hell of a lot is censored in the first place.
Rating: - Different sound when censored
I got both the censored and uncensored versions, and actually to listen to them back to back, they have a different sound. Plus mic commander is a great track. It's really not worth it to buy both unless you are one of those people who had to have a copy of Tight for well over $60... Still if you aren't allowed to buy from anywhere except walmart, or you just need to hear the bonus track, this is a great cd.
