Pardon my French.
Sure but I was never talking about lyrical content or solos, the discussion was more about stylistically (production mostly). WDR trumps Knockout hard every which way you look at it in those regards but you're cherry picking arguments if you bring up things like the boxing element.

WDR has a solo but amount of guitars, it's pretty muddy. Mostly muted power chords, bigger ones in the chorus but it's a lot over overdubbed, stacked on each other notes.
