This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
An unreleased track from Marilyn Manson — the Antichrist Superstar-style industrial rocker Astonishing Panorama Of The Endtimes (which is nowhere near as audacious as its title) — is the heavyweight contender on this companion album to MTV’s claymation combat series.
However, some of the competitors on the undercard are worth checking out. Rapper Xzibit’s title track has a cheeky jab; Canibus and Rakim work the mic like tag-team ninjas on I’ll Bust Em, You Punish Em; and Kool Keith’s Bow To The Masta is another of his rope-a-dope raps. There isn’t a true champ in the bunch, but a few of them might knock you out.
