For anyone interested: I’ve been holding out for TDS Definitive Edition 2LP for a year as the previous run had gone out of print. I’m getting notifications left and right that it’s back in stock for around $27-35. If you want it, buy it now because it’s apt to go quick.

TDS never really grabbed me - maybe I need to go back and give it another listen
It's pretty abrasive. Little bit of God hating in there -- not sure if that's a dealbreaker for you. But it's one of the greatest albums of all time.
Yeah - that might be enough to push this album into the 'Pass' pile - depends how it's done. I'll give it another listen at some point and report back
It’s really just Heresy, and while it’s really abrasive, my read is it’s more about the commodification of Christianity, and the disenfranchisement people were beginning to have with organized religion when the song was written.
Much more intellectual/critical than something you might get from Marilyn Manson.
