Prick - The Wreckard FLAC download

Look people, you need to hear this album. Trent Reznor produced the first Prick album because McMahon is a hero of his. That resulted in a fine album, but it was more of a joint effort between Reznor and McMahon. Mostly industrial/hard Rock without too much variation. The Wreckard, while still drawing on the talents of several other musicians, seems to be completely McMahon's vision. Instead of more of the same, we get a far more experimental album this time around. It's tough to describe, but it seems like songs were allowed to grow organically. You get a really sweet patchwork of parts that have been recorded over time, edited, processed, and then assembled into something completely free. A given track may veer off into discordant, distorted breakbeats before returning to where it left off. The lyrics and vocals are also incredible. Some of the material expresses disenchantment with The Biz (I bet LA had a lot to do with that) and does so in such a scathing yet poetic way that it's not overbearing. It must hurt to be the object of his disdain, you know? Anyway, I just wanted to be sure that people know about this one. Being self-released, it can be hard to come by. Not only that, but McMahon's website seems to have disappeared. Dig deep to find this album - It will stay close to you.

Actually Reznor was a keyboardist for McMahon before NiN..... Anyway I have a signed second print .. Asking 150.
