As much of a lowbrow person as I am, this is so obscene it hurts. So much sexuality not even thinly veiled, the f-bomb shall be droped.... HARD! And not only in the average "f**k you" kinda way, In the sexual way.But, it seems, the song "Remember the name" is quite popular (or...was...) So, if you can find a radio edit, listen away! If not, you should be 15.

What Parents Need to Know
About The Rising Tied
Parents need to know that there is strong and violent language along with some social consciousness and a lot of heart. There is also some sexual innuendo and references to drugs and cigarettes.

i liked this cd....
the rising tide is a very good cd. I was surprised at the expliciness of it though. If your my age i'd reccomend the cencored version.

This is a good album. (Edited Version Review)
I thoroughly enjoyed this album. Alot of the songs are really good and some even have some social awareness (The REAL World, depicted in "Right Now"; What it' like to be Japanese in America, circa 1942, in "Kenji"). Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park is the main rapper on the record. If your kid likes Linkin Park, I would definately recommend this album, but get the Edited Version, as the uncensored version has alot of language in it, as you can probably tell by the high number of "Interruption" (cursing muted out of the song).
