Get Some is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Snot. Released in 1997, it is the only album that features the band's original vocalist, Lynn Strait, who was killed in a car accident in December 1998 when a truck struck his car, killing him and his boxer Dobbs, who appears on the album cover.[7][8]
Release and reception
Recorded in October and November 1996, the album was released on May 13, 1997, by Geffen Records.[9]
Australian publication Tone Deaf reflected in 2015 that, "when Snot released their debut album Get Some in 1997 it was heralded as one of the most melodic, groove laden offerings of [the] nu metal scene", adding that "the album found immediate critical favor and won the band a legion of dedicated Snot Heads."[10]
In 2022, Revolver featured Get Some on a list of "Top 5 One-Album Wonders", and labelled the music as a mix of "Red Hot Chili Peppers-esque funk-rock with sprinting hardcore thrashers and rambunctious Bizkit-ian rap-metal."[11]
