...their final tally. (To quote a friend, “Those nuns got mad ’sploited.”) These uncomfortable encounters included shaky camerawork as the handheld camcorder filming the scene zoomed in and out unexpectedly. But the highlight of each scene was the music: an amazing and hilariously malapropos soundtrack that sounded something like a Clapton-fronted Mariachi band.There is, however, more to the experience of watching “Les Demons” than simply what appears on the screen and rumbles through the speakers.

Gone is the Michael Moore who sharply analyzed America’s gun culture...
...opening couplet (“She warned him, warned him not to go / He said I, I’ve got to go”) demonstrates Morello’s complete inability to portray any depth of emotion in his music. The lyrics disappoint throughout the album and on many songs the listener is reduced to cringing in anticipation of another appallingly obvious rhyme...
