Description
House of Pain's sophomore album was released thirty years ago on June 28, 1994. With this album, Everlast changed his rapping style considerably and unveiled a much more distinctive and recognizable approach. Sounding twisted, damaged, and maniacal, Everlast grabs the listener's attention and refuses to let go on such wildly entertaining fare as "Back From the Dead," "Over There Shit," and "Runnin' Up on Ya." House of Pain's subject matter - namely, their superior rapping skills and the threat they pose to sucker MCs - is far from groundbreaking. But an abundance of strong, clever hooks and Everlast's psycho-like rapping make Same as It Ever Was consistently appealing. Celebrating its 30th Anniversary this year, the CD has two remixes "On Point" Lethal Dose Remix and "Legend"-Lethal Dose Remix the latter which will make its digital streaming debut.
