#NowPlaying one more Static-X for today -- this is another single from their platinum 1999 album Wisconsin Death Trip, but I never heard this one on the radio. This is track two on the record right after "Push It", and I like this one even MORE than "Push It"-- it STILL gives me chills to this day, one of my favorite damn songs. The fucking RIFFS. And WHAT a video. You really get to see where that soundclip is from 😂

#NowPlaying The first Static-X song I heard, on the radio, in 1999, when I was 19 -- "Push It". The sound. It's unforgettable. Not even one of my top favorite songs of theirs, but still so damn badass. And then to see the video- this one's one of the greats. There's a reason 'Wisconsin Death Trip' went platinum.

As I look back on Michael Lesy's work
My thoughts are of that noir-ish lurk
A narrative so rich
In the past's mystic pitch
It's art that still can make me smirk
