This album was released in 2004 by
The Faint as a follow-up to the successful
Danse Macabre (which I loved). Unlike "Danse Macabre", after first listen "Wet from Birth" left me disturbed and kind of put off. However, I dusted off the album again almost a year later after I had gotten sick of what I had been listening to. Good decision.
After a few more listens, this album has become of my favourites. Powerful rythms, interesting arrangements, dark/forboding imagery, what else would you expect from the Faint? "How Could I Forget" is an amazing track and will run chills down your spine. Excellent music for Halloween.
