Last Rights

About

Last Rights is the seventh studio album by Canadian industrial band Skinny Puppy, recorded 1991-1992 and released on June 30, 1992 by Nettwerk. The album included a ballad ("Killing Game"), a first for the group, as well as the dance-floor friendly track "Inquisition", and dense sound sculptures like "Download" and "Riverz End" (a joint remix of two tracks from the Rabies album, "Rivers" and "Choralone"). Amongst the numerous samples on the album, there are two taken from "The White Album" by The Beatle, with Revolution 9 and Helter Skelter featuring on "Love in Vein" and "Inquistion" respectively. Last Rights received generally favorable reviews from critics and was the first Skinny Puppy record to chart on the Billboard 200. The album was supported by a tour, which would be Skinny Puppy's last for over 12 year. This was Skinny Puppy's last studio release for Nettwerk. In 1998, Alternative Press named Last Rights as one of the best albums of the decade.
