Death Angel Act III
This is an absolute classic album and one that definitely stands tall in my top 10 albums of all time. Some might dismiss this as pure thrash metal after the first two tracks but as you progress through you notice all different experimental songs that just catch fire. What I'm trying to say is that this is one amazing album with great vocals, great thrash and acoustic guitar playing. It saddens me that nobody has reviewed this. Just try the song Discontinued and you will know why this is one of metals greatest gifts.

The groups greatest album thus far. With new drummer Brandon Trahan behind the kit makes this band even more tight throughout. The 10 tracks fly by quickly and give a short but enjoyable listen. The best track on the record is The Great Fear featuring guest vocals from Vincent Bennet. (The Acacia Strain) The band are really going to struggle on the follow up to this album. Worth checking out.

4.0 excellent
All Shall Perish This Is Where It Ends
All Shall Perish is a band coming in with high hopes for their 2011 release. Hot off the heels of their breakthrough 2008 album, which reached #1 on the Billboard heatseakers chart, All Shall Perish look to push higher into the charts and into the top 20 WITHOUT shifting their trademark sound. instead, they aim to do this with the same brutality, mixed with some tastey songwriting tricks.

Impending Doom The Serpent Servant
Improved songwriting by Impending Doom. This album boasts some of the greatest breakdowns I've ever came across eg. More Than Conquerors. The vocals have had a drastic change for the band with Brook Reeves now turning to a low death growl instead of youthful pig squeals. This album is enjoyable if you appreciate deathcore. Do yourself a favour and pick this one up.

This album is extremely commercial. If you enjoy your metal with a ridiculous amount of hooks then you may just bother to give this record a spin. Just try Fight Til The Bitter End and you will understand what I mean. Not bad but nothing all too interesting at the same.

Nothing too special by Impending Doom. Does sound excellent when in the mood for some Indecipherable vocals
and some blast beats.

I've had the album for a couple days now. I'll say that it takes a couple full listens to really get behind it. It's nothing
like Shogun though, and I like that. The songs all have the raw power of Ascendency, and the clean sections are very
nice. The 30 second samples that came out a month ago really didn't do any of the songs justice. Really the only
song without any screaming is A Grey So Dark. All of the others are heavy and have their own flair to them. The only
criticism I have is that I felt unfulfilled at the end of each listen to the album. Of All These Yesterdays gets me ready
to explode right at the end and its the perfect place to have a balls to the wall explosion of screaming and drums
with a mindblowing riff. But it just ends there really.

Chelsea Grin My Damnation
Chelsea Grin are back only a year later with nothing new to offer but bland generic songs. If you enjoyed last years
Desolation Of Eden then you will have no problems listening to this one. There are a couple of differences but
nothing to get excited over. Firstly in the vocal department I found Alex Koehler has changed up his style. The group
have decided to toss away the youthful pig squeals in exchange for more high pitch shrieking, which sound strangely
different this time around. The addition of guitar solos is a welcome one, giving the listener a few moments to
breath. Apart from that Chelsea Grin luckly have chosen the best song off the record as there single. My Damnation
sums up the whole album in 4 minutes. It's fast, full of screaming and has plenty of breakdowns to offer. It's a real
shame that the band lossed focus on this record. After hearing this 5 times over 3 days it has only grown on me a
little bit. Nothing too special but still enjoyable at times.
