I guess they didnt fix everything when they remastered this.

The seminal Phoenix trio's self-titled debut is one of the

greatest hard-core punk records ever made--but it pissed the

punk kids off. Whether it was the Meat Puppets' long hair

(in '81!) or their set-opener "The King and I" it was hard

to say. Yet they were reviled. Still, they broadened their

horizons, mixing up their weird full-on frantic hardcore

style with some Tex-Mex, some bluegrass, and a little desert

sun. The result? The cultural icon Meat Puppets II, a

landmark album that resonates with the acid trails and

heat-driven madness of southwest America. (As a whole

generation of musicians, from Dinosaur Jr.'s J. Mascis to

Nirvana's Kurt Cobain and downwards, can attest.) Curt

Kirkwood's dislocated guitar style veers between hillbilly,

heavy metal, psychedelic, and the Oak Ridge Boys. His

brother's bass sound is endearingly fallible. A wonderful,

eccentric record (with seven bonus tracks!). --Everett True

Since 1996, Rabid Neurosis has been dedicated to releasing

the highest-quality, cutting-edge MP3s in the online music

community.  With an average of nearly 6000 releases per

year, RNS is untouchable both in terms of quantity and

quality of releases.  Many of the largest releases in the

music world were released by RNS long before their official

street date.  We pride ourselves on ensuring that our

releases encompass every musical genre, from pop, to

hip-hop, to jazz, to house, to alternative, and back again.

Do you think you have what it takes to be part of Team RNS?

RNS is currently looking for:

- T3+/40GB+ siteops running a *nix-based OS

- cable/ADSL+ rippers on the east coast or in the EU

willing to do store pickups every Tuesday morning

- individuals with access to music prior to its official

retail release date

- hardware suppliers

- individuals with a skill useful to the group -- we're

always looking for new ways to better RNS

If you fall into any of these categories, please ask to

speak with a group senior in #rns on EFnet.

The fine traders of DECiBEL are the official external

courier team for RNS -- please show them the same priveleges

our releases more accessible to the public than ever before.
