Metal has really poor frontmen but good guitarists, So I shouldn't be too mad.


You seriously haven't listened to metal if you have the balls to say that.

Some Songs are listenable, but overall an extremely dissapointing effort, I was expecting much better, although it It does have its moments. I throughly enjoyed AYDY, but this was a huge let down. Alexi sounds merely uninspired.

COB should throw in the towel IMO. They are obviously running out of ideas and Alexi's voice is only getting worse.

The album is a complete disaster. I found it a real chore to listen to. The only songs I can pretty much tolerate are Blooddrunk & Banned From Heaven. But even those sound dull and uninteresting. It sounds to me COB have got themselves into a rut. This is just rubbish as far I'm concerned. I gave it another listen this afternoon, and now I'm going to put my rating down.

^ Yeah I actually liked Blooddrunk when I first heard it, but then when I played it with the rest of the album, it kind of ruined it for me if you know what I mean. I'm a COB fan and it's just frustrating to see them fall into making this tripe, when you know they can do a whole much better. I mean Alexi is still a young guy, I wouldn't write them off just yet, they still have plenty of music left in them, but I hope this isn't a sign of things to come. This was a waste of everybody's time imo. In Flame's new album makes this look ridiculous, and I thought In Flame's new one was pretty damn ordinary.This Message Edited On 05.03.08This Message Edited On 05.03.08

I love the new In Flames. And Blooddrukn is easily the best song on this album. I actually think its one of the better songs COB has ever written, but the album as a whole isnt great.

^ Yeah, I gave TMT a higher rating than it deserved, because I like the band so much. Maybe it will grow on me, but I can't see it happening, it just sounds so bland to me. It's got nothing on Come Clarity, that album rips the new one to shreds. Alias sounds like a pop song you would hear on the radio only with heavier guitars. I'm really starting to like the album less with every listen.This Message Edited On 05.03.08

Hmmmm average album. 3-ish rating IMO.



I was hoping it would be good but as soon as the song names were announced I had a sinking feeling.



Think I'll stik to hatebreeder and follow the reaper.

You sir, are the ignorant one. Nothing else needs to be said

Well i guess its normal a five year old doesn't fully grasp the concept of genres. I apologize for my last statement in that case

I dont think its that bad. An album that makes me sick is F.O.A.D. by Darkthrone.
