Technically Zimmers Hole is not a Strapping Young Lad project since the band already existed before Strapping Young Lad made an impact on the metal scene. But with SYL members and a vocalist called The Heathen in the line-up, it could easily be mistaken for one.
“When You Were Shouting At The Devil, We Were In League With Satan” is the name of album number three for this Canadian outfir and as you can tell, it’s not wise to take these guys too seriously. It’s all about paying tribute to metal and having fun doing it. And they do this in a great way by writing kickass speed/thrash songs with a lot of poop jokes in ‘em. Guess you could say that what Tenacious D does for classic and hard rock, Zimmers Hole does for metal.
To properly prepare yourself for this album, I’ll leave you with The Hole’s Commandments:
1. Should They Plunder, Thou Shalt Suffer an Eternity of Humiliation in Song for Thy Ignorance and Stupidity.
2. Thou Shalt Embrace the Flame. For It is The Creator, and The Destroyer, and The Cooker of Weeners.
3. Thou Shalt Wear Dark Clothing. Especially, Big Tall, Leather Boots.
4. Thou Shalt Break the Crust that Imprisons the Rectally Retentive.
5. Beware the Changeling Glo-God for It is the True Weakness of Will.
6. Thou Shalt Ignite That Which Burns.
7. Thou Shalt Suck It. Suck It Up. Suck It The Fuck Up. You Fuck.
8. Thou Shalt Not Take the Name of Bob Barker. The True Shirtless Aerosol Cheesus Crust, in vain.
9. Thou Shalt Stand and Accept It.
10. Thou Shalt Swill Ale From A Bullet Proof Cup.
11. Thou Shalt Revel in the Flesh and Consume the Feast That is Life, Before the Great Flash - Dot of Armageddon.
Score: 8 out of 10
