What comes around goes around..........2007-05-14

The title pretty much says it all being a raw wall of noise and sound akin to a load of scrap metal being dumped down a staircase. Pretty straight forward, albiet it a tad cliched, old-school speed metal.... BUT...what makes it a bit diferent from the pack are elemental lyrical and stucture elements that would later develop into something quite wonderful in the way of sound and imagery in following releases, so I recommend Rooarr as a stepping stone in the Voivod trilogy. In many ways this is a small backward step from Voivod's first release, the more accessible War and Pain, as if they are trying to find their footing and 'place".

Plus, its a lotta raucous pounding FUN and I get all sweaty and smelly just listening to Snake and Co pound and rip through this!

BTW...I owned this recording on vinyl (!!) many years ago when it was first released. Now re-exploring my speed/thrash heritage Rrroooaaarr is a standout in my collection. And it should be in yours as well.

Enjoy.

Voivod's legacy will be carried on through the excellent music.......2005-10-19

Despite the fact that this CD had crappy recording quality it was a great CD. Hell, Voivod had many great CDs in their career. I'm saddened to hear about the passing of Piggy (a great guitarist). The music that was created was very unique and influential to many people. Piggy has passed on but he won't be soon forgotten...he has left an awesome legacy behind for us all.

What a shmuck!!.......2005-09-06

To "Marco Esquandolas a dragon with matches." how utterly classless and moronic of you to give a classic Voivod album a crappy review mere days after their guitar player Dennis D'Amour (aka "Piggy") died of inoperable colon cancer. You truly are a shmuck! Do the world a favor... put in another Linkin Park Cd and quit pretending you know anything about metal.

Pure poop.......2005-09-03

You payed money for this?? It's a shame a talented drummer is wasting his talents w/ these guys. Too bad I'm required to give it a star.

Rrriipping!.......2004-10-08

This album is very fast thrash-metal with riffs using jazzy stacked fifth chords; giving it spacey, machine like overdriven harmonies. The lyrics are about giant monsters attacking cities, mechanized warfare, zombies, and ripping headaches. the drummer is very very good. On every album he sounds like in peak form, very well-practiced.
This album is ripping and raw with lots of improvised fills, but they are a very tight band, and utilize alot of odd-time signatures. I haven't heard "Killing Technology", but I like "Rrrooaar" much more than "War and Pain" (the debute) or "Dimension Haitross" (most aclaimed).

"Rrooarr" is far more straight-forward thrash-metal than the artsy "Nothingface" and other the later progressive albums.

I say, that any band that decides to name its album "Rrrooaar" is making a clear statement.

Its Rrripping.
