Thunderhead is a song about a man dying and suffering from an heroin addiction. The dialog between the master and slave, on a subconscious level this man is submitting himself to his inner demon/addiction. Besides how depressing the songs content is, still one of fav WASP songs..............I have too many to list.

My older sister got this album when I was like 10 or something. It blew my fucking head off. Sounded like a concert at the apocalypse, the MASSIVE reverbs on it just make it so epic

The bloody, nightmarish picture of drug abuse painted in this song is bonechilling. Headless is the band's best album for me, it's such an awesome record. Loved your reaction to this classic, it's always great to hear your viewpoint on music, especially metal.

Thunderhead is a great track. The part where it sounds like he is talking to the devil. He's actually talking to his drug addiction. What could be a better metaphor for drug addiction then the devil? WASP is pretty underrated for the lyrical ability there is usually more depth then at first glance (or listen!).

I think it's cos they mostly sing about tits n arse. But this album was really special. I loved it as a kid then got live in the raw and was like "oh... ok sure." To clarify I'm no prude lol But this album seemed to have so much more substance than any of the others I've heard since

The song The Headless Children is really good and is still relevant today. Mean Man and Man Eater are the two best songs on this album for me. Mean Man will leave you on the floor the first time you hear it.

WASP is one of my all time favorite bands of all time since high school, but now with a daughter that has burned her life to the ground, is currently homeless and strung out on Heroin.... I never thought this song would mean so much to me. So sad. You can't save these people. They pull everyone around them down and destroy everything.

Brazilian drummer Aquiles Priester is the man behind the beats in WASP now and the man is an absolute beast. He was the mentor of Sepultura's drummer Eloy Casagrande. You should check out his playthrough of DragonForce's Through The Fire & Flames on his or Paiste Cymbals' channels.

I feel also that it is not just about drug addiction: but, addiction to status and power. I have seen too many times; especially in the workforce, this happens. It is like selling your soul to advance your own self interest, damn whom ever you have to betray. Which; ironically, is themselves!!
