Yeah Fat Slave is the best, the vocal work on it is clearly the best out of all the songs on the album.

Yeah, I like that song too. Bloodlust is the song that stood out the most on the first listen through for me. I agree with the ratings comment too.

I strongly suggest that anyone who hasn't heard their previous work should, Evil Inside and Soundtrack for the Revolution (their LP) are both great. Also check out the band Rabbit Junk. RJ shares the same vocalist and has a similar style.



Can't wait to get home and download this one.
That's good advice. I really like Evil Inside (Script Kiddie not so much). I haven't heard the debut or Rabbit Junk yet, but I'm going to. Make sure to come back and say what you think since you actually heard them before this album.



As for Modern Warfare 2, I want it but all my time is taken by Dragon Age.

Ha ha. I love these new style RPGs - I can't help it. Hey, before Dragon Age it was lots of online with BattleField: Bad Company.

See I don't know any of the mythical stuff. I thought the Lord of the Rings movies were boring as fuck.

Can't wait to get my hands on MW2, Amazon is pissing me off and not shipping until tomorrow... I guess that's what I get when I am too cheap to pay for release day delivery...



On topic, I got to listen to this all the way through once and holy shit is it good to hear this band together again. Their formula hasn't changed at all, but that's a good thing, you don't mess with what they do because they do it so well.



The best part of this release is that they have finally done well with the production. All of their previous releases were muddy as hell which did take a little away from how good their music is.



I plan to write my own review in the next few days, I want to listen a few more times. I think this is a well written review, my only issue is calling this "Industrial Metal". I don't know what genre to put this in, but it's not Industrial Metal.... I'll have a better explanation in my review.

Yeah you definitely need to listen to this and their older albums a few times before writing a review. Their formula has definitely changed since the previous releases. Those were dominated by drum&bass beats and this isn't. Also, the electronics played a much larger roll on previous albums than they do now. Also, I wouldn't really say they're back together since this has only one of the two guys (the guy responsible for writing all the previous albums, though). Also, industrial metal is the best broad classification that the most people will read and understand. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing hour review.

I haven't done enough research into this, I didn't know it was just one member. I also noticed the lack of drum & bass, so I agree that the formula has changed, but only slightly. It still really feels like the Shizit to me, while Rabbit Junk and Cyanotic never compared. I thought the electronics were as present as the were on Soundtrack to the Revolution, but I do need more time. Whatever similarities and differences there are, I am just stoked to have the Shizit back.
