I love this band and i really like this while i am listening to it, but nothing is catchy enough for me to remember it afterwards. That Within Blood Ill Tempered has better songs in my opinion.

I remember in my formative metal years (dig my accidental Atheist reference) the word about these guys. I checked out something or other by them after i had heard their cover of damage inc. Didn’t really “get” them then, but at least i have the privilege now to sort of know how this metalcore genre became so horribly misguided.

These guys were the blueprint that should have been followed. Hardcore sincerity (like that straight edge hardcore band my brother plugs so hard Have Heart) and some good metal guitar playing. Metalcore. What went wrong? I also remember Luti-kriss. Perhaps you’ve heard of those guys as well.

They might have changed their name somewhere down the line.

I disagree with this review. This album is unquestionably Hulud’s most urgent, harsh and uncompromising. That WIthin has much more “downtime” than Misanthropy Pure, and by a long-shot. Good to know Erik likes the album, but he sure missed the mark in describing it. Again, by a long-shot. Great album. Im for one, am thoroughly pleased.

I remember these guys from a Tooth & Nail/Solid State comp I had years ago, which is how I got into Zao (around Where Blood and Fire Bring Rest) – never really checked these guys out but based on your description I think I have some catch up to do.
