FAMOUS QUOTES:
"This is the best album since the last one."
-Paul Salamone
"After Requiem, I just wanted to do something crazy! So I just started recording all sorts of random sh*t and couldn't stop. Finally I ran out of space on my hard drive! I either had to release this thing or start taking songs off my iPod!!"
-Joe Nacco
"Bigger, louder, bolder and more eccentric than ever!"
-Tommy Mottola (probably not talking about Joe Nacco, but he could be)
"What is he, f&*$ing nuts?!?!"

"Joe obviously has talent and a good country/pop/rock sound."
