Product Description

Product Description

If you were to judge this album just by its thrashy third track "Yes It's Fucking Political", you would miss out on the rich diversity of musical styles on this release. As highlighted on their first album, Paranoid & Sunburnt, the group have a tendency for being frank, explicit and often militant. However, as well as the hardcore rants, Stoosh also shows off the band's softer side, especially on bittersweet tracks like "Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good)". Full of postmodern flourishes, the songs flitteringly deal with lifestyle politics, sung with equal parts rage and tenderness by their striking frontwoman, Skin. A phenomenal and mature sophomore effort, perfectly showcasing their now-trademark funk and metal sound.--John Galilee

4.0 out of 5 stars Under rated brit rock from 90's...., 28 Mar 2006
By A Customer
I dug this out the other day as Skin has a new album out and I thought I'd listen to some Old Skunk Anansie. It holds up very well I think. It's hard to choose between the 3 albums as they all have strong points, but this is maybe my favourite by a whisker. I was reading a book written in America with album reviews in it and it compares the first SA album favourably with Rage Against The Machine's first album. I think I agree, though lots of music fans seem to give SA a hard time and wouldn't put them in such 'exalted' status as Rage. They seem very underrated as a band even though they had the sense/courage to stop when they were on top rather than dragging it out for years. Lemmy of Motorhead always speaks very highly of SA and put Post Orgasmic Chill in his top 20 British Rock albums list in a recent edition of 'classic rock' magazine. The british rock scene at the moment is badly in need of a Skin/SA style voice to make some political comment. Listening to this album highlights what we are missing at the moment.

5.0 out of 5 stars a spine tingling effort, 8 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This is an amazing album, with tracks like all i want, hedonism, infidelity, brazen and pickin on me stealing the show and making this an essential album for anyone's collection. Trust me, any doubts u might have will dissolve the moment skin's heavenly voice rocks ur sound waves. buy it!!!!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars very good indeed, 5 May 2001
There are some classics on the album, and only We Love Your Apathy, Brazen and the awful Glorious Pop Song have weak sections.

Strong songwriting evident on all the other tracks, with good variety. 'Yes it's Fucking Political' is a great rock song that builds to a massive power-chord finale. Other good rockers are Twisted and Milk is my Sugar.

The softer songs are elevated by Skin's hugely emotive voice, for example on Infidelity and Pickin' On Me.

With all this and the hit single Hedonism you aren't going to be disappointed by this album- apart from the last track no song is truly weak,and the variety means you will listen to different songs dependent on your mood.

Stoosh is a good album, as is Post Orgasmic Chill- also worth getting.
