CANNIBAL (EXPANDED BLOOD & BRONZE SPLATTER VINYL)

With a title like Cannibal, it''''s no surprise that this 2007 album presents Static X at its most, er, bloodthirsty. Lead singer Wayne Static put it plainly: 'I think it''''s the most metal record we''''ve ever made, and it''''s arguably the heaviest record we''''ve ever made." Cannibal is the first Static X record to have numerous guitar solos, which herald the return of founding guitarist Koichi Fukuda; and the change in producers (from Ulrich Wild to John Travis) no doubt played a role in the band''''s shift back to the more intense sound they premiered with Wisconsin Death Trip. The record went Top 40, and 'No Submission" wound up on the Saw 3 soundtrack. In short, a return to form after the chaotic personnel and stylistic changes of Start a War. Cannibal is here given its first-ever vinyl reissue with a bonus track ('Light It Up"). Blood and bronze splatter pressing inside a gatefold jacket!
