Just a side note before Sean rips this disc to shreds: If you think that having Cher's kid Elijah Blue Allman front this band is going to score any points, or having Jonathan Davis kiss your ass publicly is going to help you get a decent review...well, you're deluded. On with the massacre.

After listening to what DEADSY want to pass off as music, I am left scratching my head. What in God’s name is this shit? Does Jay Gordon from ORGY know that he is being ripped off by this rock meets techno wannabe band? Commencement is just a boring fucking snooze fest that will have you pressing skip through out the whole mess. I usually do some research before I type a review out but quite frankly, I have wasted enough time on this festering piece of shit. I don’t even want to proof read this because that will be another few minutes of my life that I would have devoted to an ample waste of musical resources. I actually opened the insert to find their names so I can make this a little more personal, but maybe Deadsy is a little smarter than I thought. Even they are dumb enough to stick a real name to this project. Since I am talking about the names, what the fuck were they thinking? P. Exter Blue 1 on vocals? Jesus Christ in a body bag, what the fuck kind of name is that? Creature on bass? I am betting this no talent hack spent more time coming up with his name than he did paying any attention on what this music sounds like. I can’t help but swear that this is the third Orgy smorgasbord of bullshit released under a different name to avoid being pointed at in public. I cannot believe I actually paid money for this. But the pain doesn’t end just yet. Oh no, it gets even shittier. These brain dead fucks have the audacity to do a cover of the rush classic, Tom Sawyer. Now, I can get over the fact that they sound like a garbage and I wasted a little time. Hey, if they want to embarrass themselves by releasing this, that’s fine. But why in the name of fuck did they have to put an all time classic in the musical chop shop? I actually had to check my speakers because with the extreme over use of distortion through out Commencement, I thought they were shot. I should be shot for even writing this review. Treat this album like AIDS and keep the fuck away from it. I expect to see a lot of thank you letters in my email for saving you all this displeasure.
