Favorite Songs : "URA fucking loser", "I reject", "Get out"

Summary :

Bile's debut EP is a mix of noise, driving industrial beats, twisted samples, and loud guitars. Their songs are fast paced and contain some very insightful lyrics including my favorite "You're a fucking loser, that's all you'll ever be, you are the fucking loser, no not me". Do these guys sound annoyed? Just a bit. Whether it's all in good fun, or if Bile really is "feeling like shit" and they " just wanna die", the album is very nice to listen to whether you're in a pissed off mood and feel like screaming "Get out get out get out get out", or if you're in a happy mood and feel like laughing.

The first two tracks on the album never really pleased me, although what follows is great. Track 3, "URA fucking loser" is an instant classic with a nice beat and very easy to learn chorus. The next song is "I reject" which also appeared on the soundtrack to Mortal Kombat. "Feeling like shit" follows. Then comes "Get out", which begins with a cheesy hi-hat beat accompanied by monkeys screaming. I love it. Track number 7, "suckpump" is an atmospheric piece which sounds like a song that would accompany the ending of mankind. It ends with a man saying "the green and insignificant planet is now dead." Closing off the album, we have a radio edit of "Get out". I think that was included because of all the top40 airplay they get.
