I brought the disc home, played it, and within the first four seconds I was hooked. I couldn’t believe how good it was!

It still blows me away. Law and Order remains my favorite, and Gift of Screws has its moments, but OOTC is, as you all have mentioned, his greatest achievement.

You have great taste. Law and Order is so f*cking weird, but I think it was released so soon after Tusk, that the weirdness didn't bother me. It's WHY I love it.
