It's also nice to see that Vinnie has gotten out of his lyrical/rhythmic slump–"A History of Violence" is the best work he's done since Violent by Design. And Stoupe is as awesome as ever.

Its so different from the violent pointless lyrics you hear in Visions of Gandhi and Legacy of Blood.<br /><br />Also, Stoupe is a god of production.
