| So true. Once again, The More Things Change is fucking HEAVY. This song expresses all the hate, and the rage that I feel. | |

| Good music doesn't just have to be heavy. A talented musician shouldn't be confined to one style. That's just lame . . . | |

| I liked this album, it was heavy as all f**k. This song is about kicking ass and standing tall over anybody who would try to bring you down. This is the song I listen to when I'm about to play football, take a test, or anything else that I pump myself up for. Pure energy, man. | |
