Cult Ritual - "LP1"

Taken from Wikipedia: "The mineral pyrite or iron pyrite, also known as fool's gold, is an iron sulfide with the formula FeS2. This mineral's metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue give it a superficial resemblance to gold, hence the well-known nickname of "fool's gold.""  That being said, feel free to enjoy the debut and final LP from Cult Ritual.  Ugly, abrasive, and frightening at times, it's a perfect listen for a bad day.  I missed them on tour in 2009 because I'm a poser who only got into them that summer, but I'll never forget the first time I listened to these songs.  I was on a bicycle around midnight, and I felt like someone was going to dart out of an alleyway with a knife at some point.  A truly unsettling experience if you have the guts to listen to it on headphones at full volume.  I've also decided to be kind & include a link to the lyrics sheet so you can sing along at home.  You remember "Disney's Sing Along Songs," right?  This is just like that.  Come on, kids, follow the bouncing ball!
