Their best riff is on the previous album’s Know Your Enemy. It even has some sensible words, such as near the end where the singer says his enemies are the teachers who taught him things like conformity. Knocking the govt school indoctrinators is cool but when he lists different enemies that he acknowledges, it shows lack of mastery of Sun Tsu’s content. Knowing your enemy doesn’t mean identifying your enemy. That should be basic, although it has gotten trickier in the modern world. What Sun Tsu meant was to study the ways of your already-acknowledged enemy so that you can learn the enemy’s characteristics, weaknesses, and strengths.
