I found Where the dead ship dwells to be easily the best song on here.

Damn Jokine...

title is lol but artwork is sweet. I'd guess the music is in between.

The Sound Of Perseverance Fading

Album Rating: 3.5

I actually really dig 6 or 7 songs on this album

its alright. never got the hate for this band after Clayman. they've always been decent

Abandoning your sound, which was widely praised, so you could follow whatever trend popped up next will generally garner you much hate.

Album Rating: 3.0

I enjoy this album a good amount; All For Me, Where Dead Ships Dwell, A New Dawn, and Liberation are all really solid tracks.

even if they didnt change their sound i cant see them outdoing their first 3 albums

I just realized Soilwork is in the exact same boat as these guys. They were great for a few albums, sold out to trends and then tried to make a return to form.

soilwork never released a classic melodeath album though

True, since they were directly influenced by In Flames, but their first three albums (4 if you consider Natural Born Chaos to be good, but I see it as their descent) are killer and in the same genre

Album Rating: 3.0

I like a Predator's Portrait a good deal but Soilwork were never on the same level as In Flames I don't think.

I consider them to be part of the Big 4 of Melodeath. In Flames, Dark Tranquility, At the Gates and Soilwork. Soilwork is the Anthrax of Melodeath.

Still never listened to this and I'm not sure I ever want to.

Listen to A New Dawn at least: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbzUj916bEc



One of their best songs ever honestly.

Soilwork has been more thrash and speed metal oriented, while In Flames emphasized melodies. Early stuff from In Flames beats anything Soilwork's done, but latest albums by Soilwork are head and shoulders above the In Flames of today.

This is okay.
