Title NoteRELENTLESS starts quietly, rolls in as if out of desolation, and then there's applause and Hicks comes on softly. However, anyone familiar with Hicks's style knows that "soft" won't last long; within seconds, the acerbic comedian, who honed his craft under fellow Texas screamin' comedian Sam Kinison (neither of them lived to see 40), is belittling his audience. And the anger amps up from there. Before long, the legendary Hicks sets his sights on non-smokers, anti-drug P.S.A.s, Christians, Republicans, prudes, and hypocrites of all stripes. Although on the album (taped from a four-day 1991 run in Montreal) Hicks often descends into pure rage, it's an earned fury, the sort that comes from measured thought--from having a fevered, agile mind as all the world around you goes nutzoid (and just plain dumb). RELENTLESS was the second and final LP Hicks released in his lifetime, and it captures the influential and inimitable standup at his peak.
