Can’t remember why I bought this when it was released. It seemed so intense it took numerous listens before it wormed its way into my brain.

“More recently, other musicians have written very favorably of the album; for instance, Lydia Lunch named it one of her 13 favorite albums in 2013.[16] A 2009 article in Magnet called the album a "lost classic", and said that on the album, "the Fibbers' warped alt-country twang haunted the City of Angels like ghosts of California country’s past, full of grinding violin and poisoned tales of junkies, madness and lost innocence."[17] Nels Cline, who joined the Geraldine Fibbers for the recording of their second album, Butch, called Lost "a stone classic" in an interview with the Vancouver Sun in 2014.[18] Also in 2014, Spin ranked the album as the 9th best album of 1995, and, like previous reviews of the album, compared its sound to that of X.[19] In 2017, Al Shipley described the album as a "country feedback masterpiece", adding that it was his "...favorite rock album of the 90's.”

Roots usually gets all the praise, but I think Arise is under appreciated.

Roots is definitely their best imo. The first Soulfly album I think is even better.

We have been seeing eye to eye on stuff lately (goddamn The Edge), but gonna have to disagree.

I think Roots and Chaos AD are neck and neck, but I think people go for roots because it’s a diverse album with tribal elements. I loved the first Soulfly album, but I think it has aged horribly. I still will listen to a few tracks because of nostalgia. It came out a few months before I left with my brothers to backpack Europe for a month and it got a ton of a play on the trip. I will say though, Ritual (2018) has some amazing songs that rival Sepultura.

I gotta be honest, I haven't listened to it in a long time, so I may be off. But I really liked it when it came out.
