“Nice” finds the always-intense Henry carving up society’s afflictions with a young heavy metal trio (roughly half his age) that uses a few crunchy curves, but without all of rap metal’s bludgeoning impact. Not only does the current group sound furious for most of Henry’s rants (after all, why isn’t accusational “One Shot” here already a hit among the Rage Against The Machine faction?), but even Rollins himself sounds as if he’s producing more hooks and user-friendly text.

Vicious tracks like “Your Number Is One” or “I Want So Much More” are some of his finest post-Black Flag spewage, maneuvering his perspective to fit into the chunky riffage. Just as Rollins’ scatology for the challenging “Up For It” (a knockoff of every James Brown groove) signifies that he’s even got a funk album locked up inside his soul. And again, he will never be stopped.
