Meowtorhead keeps all of it: the blackletter, the chains, the war-pig snarl, now with whiskers. But ACE OF SPAYS adds the one thing the loudest band in the world never had — a responsible-pet-ownership message. Fix your cat. It will still be the meanest thing in the neighborhood; it will simply have fewer descendants to embarrass. Born to lose, spayed to win.
