Skinny Puppy, Weapon

Picked up Weapon a week or so ago and loving the ever-living-bejebus out of it. Right from the get-go Wornin' is simple, fast, and catchy, then moves into Illisit which is more mechanical and followed by Salvo's drum synth. The highlight for me though is Paragun - I just keep finding myself repeating the track! Something about the tinny ping track and its lyrics:
"Sure, this season seems so clean, a filibuster dusting on the cesium leaves, a low grade dose of a rabbit of the sleeve" 
and it just goes on. I have always loved Ogre's lyrics, can't ever seem to get enough.

Only sad I couldn't see them live 18 Feb at Sound Academy :(
