I'm not a proponent of anti-religion, nor am I a religious zealot, but I am a fan of whenever someone can talk about religion in music without it distracting from said music - The fact the music speaks about religion yet it's not ruled by that fact is one of the main reasons I gave this a perfect score. The title, although possibly tongue-in-cheek, is most definitely a condemnation of how religion governs some people's lives and allows them to become prey for the church itself.After speaking to Warren at length on some of the aspects of the album, one of the most interesting things I found is that the radio broadcasts that appear in front of some of the songs weren't planned to be that way originally, but, like Iron Maiden's "Number of the Beast" album was the product of some (higher or lower?) divine intervention - During the recording sessions they began to pick up radio transmissions and left the tape running to pick it up - oddly enough, the things it picked up dealt with some of the subject matter of the album.The entire album has somewhat of a rebellion against religion concept, from the beginning radio broadcasts to the album cover - this album most definitely deals with religion in some context, although not on all songs.I find SSKP to be somewhat of a concept album - if you are unconvinced of this I submit the following for your approval: And that was the case here - at first the name gives the impression that "we're a Metallica tribute band! whooHOO!" but after hearing "Sit, Stand, Kneel, Prey" I'm forever a fan of this great band (but most particularly Conditi’s vocal style). In fact, I hated bands like Megadeth and the Beatles for years, simply because I'd never heard their music.
I've been a fan of Metallica, GNR and bands of their ilk for years and basically stayed behind that shield of music I knew I liked. So, you can say I'm biased towards this album but in all honesty if someone slapped the My Chemical Romance logo on this I would feel the same way about it. He recorded a few songs for a Megadeth Forums tribute and I was impressed with his playing and recording and we began talking and have been friends online since. I will put this out there before I go any further into this review that I became friends with Warren Conditi during the middle of last year, before I knew he was in the band Whiplash at one point. To be blunt - I never get tired of this album. This isn't going to be "Left Unsaid" - 100% Whiplash stays true to their fans with the power-thrash riffs and double bass that broke them into the industry.ġ999 - Messages In Blood, The Early Years (Best of comp.)

Portaro remained the pillar of the band while the lineup went through many changes over the course of their six full length CDs including Cult Of One, in 1996 and Sit Stand Kneel Prey, in 1997. The band split up, but reunited in 1996 for two further albums before the three Tonys recorded a final album together in 1998.
They were part of the album titled Insult to Injury as well. In 1989 Glenn Hansen joined the band as the new singer along with Joe from the previous album. Joe Cangelosi also joined German metal band Kreator in 1994 and recorded Cause for Conflict in 1995. Joe Cangelosi recorded Ticket to Mayhem in 1987 with the two Tonys.
