The comments here are polarizing but the review itself is positive so that gets the deciding vote. Am compelled to check this out.

I was listening to “Come Death” while running to work a few years ago and got hit by a speeding Mercedes down a narrow street. I bounced off, got up and apologised to the driver and kept running.

The car had a wicked dent and scratch in the front wing by the headlight.

True story. And as such this band carries a bit of nostalgia for me.

So the concept of owning cds, but now in the digital age and being a reviewer on this site I have access to a digital download, I listen to it, don’t like it and delete it? It’s 2013 in case you haven’t yet got the memo.

So are you saying that death metal vocals are somehow above criticism? That one should like them no matter what just because it’s death metal? That makes absolutely no sense at all. That’s like saying you can’t criticize a band’s guitar playing because “it’s all metal dude!”

Must be some consumer rivals above because this is really good. Didn’t like the vocals!? It’s fucking Death Metal?! What is not to like!? I have liked everything these folks have out and i never know what the fuck the naysayers are talking about. I’ll play this alongside Desecresy, Eternal Rest, Ade, Feared, Jungle Rot, Krypts…as yet another great 2013 release to groove.

I heard a song or two and wasn’t feeling the vocals, so I let it go as well.

I could not disagree more. This is one of my top 10 bands and I own nearly all their albums, but I could barely get through this whole thing before I deleted it. The vocals are awful and this thing as a whole is slathered in weaksauce. Check out their last 2 and you’ll see what I mean.

Huh. This album is certainly getting mixed reviews. I’ve read another one that absolutely destroys this release as this band’s worst album. I loved this band’s first three albums but felt the last three weren’t all that spectacular. Reading this makes me think I need to give this new one a chance.
