Now, I've reviewed several 'funk metal' albums and been pretty critical of them all...well, nothing's gonna change here my friends. Right, Ignorance...once a thrash band from Corby, who decided that after an okay-ish demo, to turn into a bloody funk metal band...like so many others who felt left out by the current trend. These guys even got a chance to support the mighty Mordred which irritated me to high Heaven, mainly after seeing their stupid vocalist pulling faces, dressed up as a poor version of FNM's Mike Patton and trying to mimic his whole act. All this fake weirdness grates my soul and makes me puke and the music does exactly the same...silly songs with slap bass and awful lyrics which attempt to be colourful but instead emerge as wishy-washy bandwagon-jumping bollocks. And bollocks it all is. From the irritating 'Sean' to the underwhelming 'The Garden' and tragically titled 'Momma Hocus', and the horrendously funked up version of their old 'classic ' 'Why ?'
This type of music is so watery and bereft of idea that anyone at the time could slap a bit of bass and pull a face to become a cartoon band, and that's what Ignorance were. Completely out of style and time 'The Confident Rat' attempts slapstick but at least the band live up to their name. And check out that cover for more vomit-inducing twatness. Deserves inclusion just so I can warn you to stay clear.
4/10
