It's an album that ushered in an era of a thousand suburbanites drinking malt liquor, wearing U.S. Postal Service caps, and reawakening their Irish (or in some cases pseudo-Irish) heritage. And it's also the debut album that ushered House of Pain into the forefront of rap culture for a brief period of time. While it's unfair to expect a whole album's worth of quality material like the dynamite classic "Jump Around," there are some strong points on their eponymous debut that emulate the single's strength. Admittedly, there is a significant amount of filler and the topics du jour aren't exactly the most original in hip-hop, but the impact of such songs as "Jump Around," "Shamrocks and Shenanigans," and "Put on Your Shit Kickers" more than makes up for the filler. A debut for a group that showed immense promise that sadly wasn't fully realized.

decidement, je prefere Cypress hill
altos
A part le fait d'appartenir à la scène hip-hop, CH et HoP n'ont a peu près rien à voir. Ca revient à comparer Genesis à Henry Cow ou Napalm Death à Dream Theater... ;)
à ce point ???
mais mon anglais est pauvre, je me fonde sur des consonnaces musicales
