If there was ever an album that could perhaps step over the edge with the
amount of politically sensitive material on it then Snothead's "Each It And I"
might come very close. Every single track revolves around a different political
agenda that it's artists feel very strongly about. These topics vary from
censorship, vegganism, and gun control to vivisection. In fact a portion of
every album sold is donated to PETA to aid in their fight to prevent cruelty to
animals. Musically the album walks across the entire industrial genre from the
synth poppy 'If I Only Had a Gun', the thrash guitar crossover of 'Relax', to
the noise, feedback, and sample laden 'Sinister/Devine'. The lyrics express
Snothead's political stance on all of the aforementioned topics through a
variety of conventional and less than conventional means. For example the last
track on the album, 'Charlotte's Web Site' consist almost entirely of sampled
animal calls taken from an unknown source. Now while I don't necessarily agree
with all of the viewpoints presented on this album, I most certainly agree with
their rights to express these opinions. Politically minded listeners might want
to give this album a listen, especially if they agree with some of the topics
being discussed, while people not interested in heavy handed opinions might
just want to stay away.
