| For me, the far and away best track on the entire album in every way (production, arrangement and ESPECIALLY Meat's vocal performance) is ALIVE, hands down. To me, the album would be about a million per cent better if they dropped the title track altogether and put Monstro / Alive as the opening track, with the Spanish lines dropped entiirely (what's the relevance there?!?) and added some ambient motorbike grumbling at the beginning of the organ intro. I mean, as long as it's trying to use the Bat name anyway, it may as well put in a LITTLE fucking effort to have earned it, right? (Why is there even a motorbike on the front cover? Did theys top and think about what they were doing at ALL?) (as well as a whole lot of other tweaks that are needed, obviously. Not least of all drop Cry To Heaven and try to forget that meat's attempt at singing it ever happened. And re-edit Break It into something a little more tight and less long-winded). > I agree that Blind is a Bat is probaly the finest track. > > But the other two are a little bit lame "Cry Over Me" has > a little bit of emotion attached too it, and I'm sure a > lot of people can relate to that song.
