Well, the title makes sense, but the music is so focused on heaviness that son structure and musical ideas feel omitted. OK, I was laughing during Satan's Ice Cream Truck, but as a whole it's just a so-so release.

The Thrashier songs on here are awesome, but the rest of it is mostly boring or plain bad.
