    Have I ever told you about my time machine?

    One of the most enjoyable songs from Senjutsu, for me is "The Time Machine" which is often called out for its heavy self-plagiarism. Are there parts which share similarities with other previous songs? Yes. Is it lazy or uninspired? NO. The Time Machine's lyrics has the narrator talking about...

    Who got 'The X Factor'?

    All the B-sides from The X Factor are good enough to have made it to the final cut. If given only one to choose from, I'd go with Justice Of The Peace. Just an awesome song! Judgement Day shares a striking similarity with Be Quick Or Be Dead in terms of vibe (even though the solos are just...
