Six Feet Under: Crypt Of The Devil

Six Feet Under 
Crypt Of The Devil
  If you know anything about Six Feet Under, then you probably already know what you are getting with Crypt Of The Devil. This album is the embodiment of Death-Metal done the right way. It's extreme, packed with melodic riffs, gruesome lyrics and Chris Barnes iconic vocal mastery, and is without a doubt Six Feet Under's most consistent and brilliant album to date.
   For the eleventh full length studio album, Chris Barnes enlisted seasoned Metal expects; Phil Hall, Josh Hall and Brandon Ellis, known for their incredible Weed-themed Death-Metal band, Cannabis Corpse. The resulting album is something very special. Crypt Of The Devil is a genuinely enjoyable listen, from start to finish there is nothing but excellent musicianship and neck-cracking brutality. 
   Chris Barnes is no stranger to Death-growling vocals, but Crypt Of the Devil shows this pioneering man on top form. From staple cuts like "Gruesome" and "Stab", to melodic monoliths and chant worthy tracks "Open Coffin Orgy" and "The Night Bleeds", Chris' surprising clarity and guttural roars are nothing short of astounding. Musically, there is no surprising deviation from the old-school sound, and despite being the musicians first outing with Six Feet Under, they craft and maintain the bands iconic sound perfectly. 
   Overall, this is an album with a fresh and revitalising sound unlike anything Six Feet Under has previously produced. The production is clean and polished, but the songs themselves are more excellently grotesque and raw than any fan could ever ask for.

    This isn't SFU, it's Cannibas Corpse with Chris Barnes. Don't pay for this. Go get it for free.

    Here's some no nonsense for ya. This album is about as hard as a bag full of limp dicks.Chris Barnes would have been better off making this a side project, but he is obviously trying to make a buck off the SFU name. With something that sounds nothing like Six feet Under. If your a fan, like me, or should I say was?, this album takes a shit in your ears. Steve Swanson should get in another band. Glad I didn't pay for this piece of garbage. Satans gotta be pissed, SFU put his name on this dirt that's been fucked by a hobo, which is what the name of the album should have been. I haven't been this disappointed in an album in while. I've listened to the two new SLaYER tracks, so I'm prepared for it to be shit.With SFU, they give you Open Coffin Orgy, wich resembles SFU, to trick you into thinking your getting a SFU album, but that's all you get.

      Take your hate, and stick it up your ass. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean other's won't. I'm proud to have purchased this record, and I recommend it to anyone that's a fan of SFU.

No Nonsense Metal: Top 10 Albums Of 2013!

No Nonsense Metal  Top 10 Albums Of 2013!    2013 has proven to be a monumental year for extreme music. We have witnessed the return of some of the greatest pioneering acts Metal music has ever seen, as well as a succession of future legends solidifying their place within our realms. It is fair to say that 2013 holds some of the best Metal releases of all time, but within it also resides some of the most spectacular misfires ever to insult mortal eardrums. Focusing on the positive aspects of the years releases, here is a round up of 10 albums that 2013 shall truly be remembered for. Undoubtedly, this list of albums will (and should) be fairly predictable, reminding you of the incredible strides extreme music has made within the last year. However, it should also highlight just how much can change within a 365 day stretch, and just how much Metal music can terraform within that time. So lets hope 2014 lives up to the achievements of 2013. Bring on the...

BEAST IN BLACK: DARK CONNECTION

  BEAST IN BLACK:  DARK CONNECTION     Bombastic, heavy, wild and fun, Dark Connection is everything that any obliging listener can expect to hear from Finnish whippersnappers Beast In Black.      Saturated with synths, electronics and plenty of twiddling guitars, the album has a very European (or more specifically Scandinavian) Pop vibe, more prevalent here than on Beast In Black's previous efforts. That said, there is no shortage of cracking riffs, slamming drums and impressive vocals.     Kicking off in dramatic fashion, " Blade Runner " offers up an seizure inducing blur of riffs and crazed keys. Sounding like a disco injected Judas Priest, " Bella Donna " is bizzare yet undeniably infectious and catchy. With a great sing-along chorus, crunchy Metallic riffs and an abundance of synths and keys, " Highway To Mars " is another groovy staple. Offering a little more heaviness, " Hardcore " pounds and thunders along like a softer Sab...
