4.0 excellent | Alabaster Jones | January 22nd 16 | With the consistency the Michigan band has always played with, Everblack is unsurprisingly a welcome fit to their discography. Yet, what separates it from the rest is simple: this is The Black Dahlia Murder's tribute to the death metal and even black metal that they grew up with and love even now. They still mix it with their At The Gates-inspired melodeath, but make no mistake: this is as close to pure death metal as they've ever been. It's a nice clash between modern death metal techniques and old death metal ethos. The track that exemplifies this best is "Into The Everblack", which makes use of complex syncopated rhythms and intense speed during the verses, but turns slow and heavy in the chorus. It's not as immediately catchy as their other records, as its catchiness is more subtle, as seen on "Phantom Limb Masturbation" and "Their Beloved Absentee". Add to that some a fantastic opener and closer combo ("In Hell Is Where She Waits For Me", "Map Of Scars"), and you have what may be The Black Dahlia Murder's best effort.

4.0 excellent | MalConstant | June 7th 13 | This might be their best album. The bonus track 'Sepukku' is totally killer too.

3.2 good | Erwann S. STAFF | April 28th 19 | "Into the Everblack" blasts, but I'm becoming more and more tired of these guys. Good DM, but not much more than that.

0.0 | DarknessPrevails | May 6th 14 | Not a fan of the lyrical content, but The Black Dahlia Murder bring a heavy release with melodic riffs and heavy atmosphere.

3.0 good | mkamrass | November 4th 13 | There were some interesting and good songs in the beginning and middle but the album still lacked variety in the majority of the later songs. The album just became repetitious to listen to as songs went on.

3.5 great | Kronzo | August 6th 13 | The Black Dahlia Murder does another pretty good imitation of their other albums with their 2013 release. While this is the same tried and true style of music that we've heard from the band many times before, the music itself is still of a very high quality despite the similarities. If it ain't broke... don't fix it.

3.5 great | InFiction | June 9th 13 | Pretty much what you'd expect from The Black Dahlia Murder. 'In Hell Is Where She Waits For Me' and 'Every Rope A Noose' are killer tracks.

3.0 good | Robert Garland STAFF | June 7th 13 | The ritual is over, and The Black Dahlia Murder have fallen on their faces. Everblack is a stagnant, going nowhere album, filled to the utmost brim with recycled mediocrity.

3.0 good | ConsumerOfNut | June 5th 13 | Opening track is a real banger. This is better than I expected it to be so far.

4.0 excellent | Arcanine133 | May 11th 13 | Huge Black Dahlia fan and I love "Into the Everblack". My only complaint is that the music sounds a bit simpler, but I am basing that off one track. If I had to guess on what my favorite tracks will be on name alone I'd pick "Phantom Limb Masturbation", "In Hell Is Where She Waits For Me", and "Raped in Hatred By Vines of Thorn".

3.5 great | ColonelWang | April 9th 13 | If the album resembles it's first single (which I love), than i'm definitely 4.5-5ing it
Bump |
0.0 | Mewcopa0 | April 9th 13 | First single is more death and less melo than their other stuff. Could be promising. I see Trevor post a lot of OSDM, and I can see that they might go in that direction, at least in terms of melody.
