 Written on March 11, 2008 Summary: Great Music I must agree with the last reviewer, this CD rocks hard. Their last release "the art of dying" was decent, but was only a warmup for this talented band. Killing season is their heaviest album since the first one, and their best along with ACT 3. Support these guys and pick this baby up! Written on March 10, 2008 Summary: Red Hot performance by a killer band recorded masterfully When you're lucky enough to a) have a respectable career doing stuff you were playing in mom's basement 20 years ago, b) have a relatively hot modern rock producer (Rush/Foo Fighters producer Nick Raskulinecz) who is a fan of your band, and c) you can still play ferociously, you've got to take stock and take thanks to the muse. For anyone who hasn't checked in since the respectable 2004 opus _Art of Dying_, here's what you should expect: everything is better. As if you didn't expect quality - these guys - through other incarnations such as The Organization and Swarm, have always remained true to the basic mission, even if they've made slight tweaks to the presentation. Its hard to imagine any fan of true metal not giving respect to tight little twisters like the screaming "Carnival Justice," with its blues-funk breakdown twisting to an improbably good Cavestany solo, or the electronically-tweaked monster "God vs. God," which crashes down all old-school anthemic into an absolutely ripping percussion/psychadelic guitar breakdown that sounds like Incubus in a good way, winding its way briefly through the middle east before stopping to kick into the best thrash shout breakdown you've ever heard. The songwriting vs the last album is more confident, experienced, diverse and multidimensional. Musical surprises abound, like the steady, slinky mid-paced drive of "Soulless," or the masterfully woven acoustic Floydian overtones on epic closer "Resurrection Machine." Credit Raskulinecz for once again knowing just how to wring the best performances out of his band, challenging them without being domineering or unhelpful. (If you think a good producer is just a mindless knob twister, try watching Raskulinecz riling up old stick-in-the-mud fuddies like Rush, on the Rush special edition of _Snakes and Ladders_). Oh and by the way, its officially time to stop harping on Oseguda, because he absolutely rips. No longer an undisciplined shrieker, he has a command over his voice that is integral to this band's sound. Not only is there a single bad track on this album, i'll be darned if this album isn't every bit as good, maybe even better, than anything in their catalog. Seriously. It shreds that hard. Written on March 1, 2008 Summary: Teaching some lessons Like the title says....old school thrash is it.Hopefully to teach bands like avenged sevenfold a lesson or two.This cd is great at the first listen.It put some new hope and blood into my veins for music nowadays.I am tired of this over produced generic rock and metal!Now listen up boys and girls,Buy this cd,listen and Rock! Written on February 28, 2008 Summary: DEATH ANGEL IS BACK! WOW!IM' VERY IMPRESSED SOMETIMES IT TAKES ME A TIME OR TWO,TO LIKE THE MUSIC.BUT NOT HERE,FROM START TO FINISH THIS CD IS AWESOME.LIKED EVERY SONG AND IT'S GOOD TO HAVE ONE OF THE BEST THRASH METAL BANDS OF THE 80'S BACK IN THE FOLD.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CD TO ANYONE THAT LIKES METAL.THERE BACK BAD AS EVER. Written on February 27, 2008 Summary: My Thoughts on Killing Season Death Angel is back after a four-year hiatus to kick the living snot out of bands three-quarters their age. Sounding incredibly revitalized, inspired and fresh, these guys deliver their tightly wound brand of "thrash-n-roll" on 11 blistering tracks, every one of which has some aspect to recommend it, whether it be the incredible guitar work (DA remains one of the few bands whose solos will bring a smile to your face), impassioned vocals, or punishing drums. Death Angel have always brought an aspect of "having fun", for lack of a better turn of phrase, to their work (to a lesser extent than a band like Wrathchild America did, but among those lines - remember their Kiss cover?), and it clearly shines in some unexpected moments here. The production is excellent and features a pummeling, bottom-heavy sound (someone at the knobs appreciated the bass player, so we can thankfully hear it) that rumbles through the speakers, or, as I prefer, directly into the ear cavity and into the old brainpan via a good set of headphones. I must confess that my expectations weren't high, and I purchased this because I'm duty-bound to Bay Area thrash, which I've supported since the mid-80s, but this flat out rocks, no question. Don't take the previous statement as a qualifier. This is an excellent album from a proven band. A must-have purchase for fans of Death Angel, thrash and metal, and a safe purchase for people who appreciate things on the heavier spectrum of great music in general. |
