Album Notes & Community Reviews

Catapulting the Brooklyn quartet to the peak of their commercial popularity, this third studio album heavily defines the burgeoning rap-metal crossover aesthetic. Anchored by immense groove-metal riffs and street-level hardcore posturing, the record's MTV success firmly cemented the bridge between inner-city hip-hop culture and heavy metal aggression.
