STATIC-X 'WISCONSIN DEATH TRIP' LP (Import)

Though singer-guitarist Wayne Static's towering hairdo sometimes overshadowed his band's creative output, Static-X's irresistibly syncopated and beautifully streamlined debut album brought a fun industrial danceability to nu-metal's down-tuned sturm und drang. The band wouldn't match the minimalist sublimity of rafter-shaking bangers such as "Push it," "Bled for Days" and "Fix" over the course of its five following LPs, and none of their many imitators would come close to matching the electrocuting energy that Static brought to this late-Nineties classic.
