He's still good and makes good records, but there's something kinda dull about the sounds -- maybe it's the production. Still, he will always come off with something out of nowhere, like the first few songs on FACE THE TRUTH, how they can change rather unexpectedly and be really addicting. He's still a good songwriter.
Oh, but I just can't sit through Terror Twilight.

We all love listening to Forklift and Debris Slide, those songs never made me feel that i couldnt appreciate the stuff SM did later on. I think those songs are proof he always had an ear for a melody. SM isnt Merzbow, he's not trying to fry our inner ears, he writes catchy songs, and its silly to try and complicate it as anything more than that.
