2.5 average | BDx94 | June 24th 11 | I think this is a huge step in the right direction from there 2 previous albums. The black crown instrumentally is much better than there previous effort and the vocals have improved as well. Also the 2 guest appearances on this album add a little bit of variety to the album. I would give more of 3.7 or 3.8

3.0 good | BassDemon333 | June 24th 11 | Suicide Silence have started to push their sound into more of a metalcore direction and away from their deathcore roots, but they still arent showing any variation in their music. This is where The Black Crown falls flat; in the fact that every song sounds identical to the one before it. The chugging riffs and breakdowns are still present, but the vocals continue to improve. Mitch Lucker keeps getting better, but the rest of the band arent pushing further like he is.

2.0 poor | DeadGuy | July 4th 11 | Just listened to it and felt really empty. They cage themselves in the Deathcore genre and refuse to explore anything besides their comfort zone. The only difference from anything they have released before is they decided to start whispering and talking in the songs lol. The guest appearances by Jonathan Davis(Korn) and Frank Mullen(Suffocation) do little to help this album out.

4.0 excellent | Demasses | July 2nd 11 | I think that this album shows Suicide Silence starting to finally mature and moving out of a stagnant genre

2.7 average | Erwann S. STAFF | March 24th 21 | DUNDUNDUN YEAH BRO! This was everywhere back then, thanks to Lucker (hard RIP) star persona, the YOLO vid (practiced my crabcore skills thanks to that vid), and the nu metal additions. These nu metal nods, if they are not in the best of taste, kickstarted a whole new trend of nu metal revival, and that, at least, is something. Apart from that, it's mostly chug-chugs + shrieks.

2.5 average | BlackTemplarofAutism | June 21st 20 | Might very well have been the album that got me into deathcore, but there are only a few songs off this I truly enjoy anymore. The rest feels very average.

0.0 | Roben | September 17th 19 | In fairness the band couldn't have done much worse than their sophomore re order, but this was surprisingly decent. OCD and human violence are still good

1.0 awful | ShaquilleONeal | February 4th 17 | Imagine working in a shitty vodka factory like Smirnoff. While you were making Smirnoff, you drop a bucket of Smirnoff on the floor and you spill all over. You decide to mop it up, bottle it, and sell it as a different brand. Thats what this album is. Its the bottom of the barrel in an already awful genre.

1.0 awful | Doctuses | January 11th 16 | This is definitively the worst piece of shit I've ever heard.

1.5 very poor | mEyck97 | July 11th 15 | Pretty weak deathcore album. I'm getting bored listening to this...

3.5 great | Smok3mon | November 8th 14 | I don'T know why this band is getting so much hate...well, I've only listened to this one and I enjoyed it...standout tracks are Slave to Substance and YOLO, this is a really decent deathcore release...

3.5 great | Jared Floryan | October 10th 14 | Overrated as they are within the scene they represent, Riverside-based deathcore band Suicide Silence aren't quite as bad as their detractors say they are. Sure, their appeal isn't everlasting nor is the group's approach to music innovative by any stretch, but they know how to put out fun material. Both The Cleansing and The Black Crown haven't aged terribly well in hindsight, yet they still bear decent replay value; the latter more so. SS' third studio album features the late Mitch Lucker at his worst vocally and lyrically speaking, though just about everything else on here is fair game. It's not human violence at its finest, but be sure to live life hard as you appreciate what The Black Crown offers. Oh, and "Cross-Eyed Catastrophe" rules face.

5.0 classic | Jacoblikesmetal | March 25th 13 | Having never heard deathcore before, I didn't know what to expect, but when I bought the album, I immediately loved the album, as I'm a fan of Slipknot. This aside, the album remains consistently heavy and relentless throughout, making it very easy for me to sit through the whole album, every time making me want more. The downside to the album I would say is that there are not enough songs on the album, and I don't think the sound has been compressed enough to make it as extreme as it could be and the short instrumental is a bit disappointing, but the songs themselves are very good overall. The language in the album is something I'm not bothered by, but it's not for the sensitive listener and the lyrical themes to some people are quite dark and disturbing, making it an altogether more rage filled album, about some of the negative occurrences in the world, yet very apolitical. The guitars in this are cranked up to their absolute limit and the drums are mercilessly pounded to get the most aggressive music possible. If you've bought this I'd say buy the other 2 albums as this is the best album to start with.

2.5 average | BaseballJames | September 16th 11 | A few good songs here and there, but not enough to catch the listener's attention as much as
they were hoping for.

4.0 excellent | iamSeraph | July 22nd 11 | thank god it's better than no time to bleed .> suicide silence are back, remembering their cleansing-roots while bringing some new fruits to the table like guest appearances (korn, suffokate), whispered vocals and more guitar diversity. it's not the quality-record and instant "blow your ears up"-cd like their firstling but ultimately they are back on the right path, finally leaving the trail of fail that NTTB was, haha. good for them.

4.0 excellent | 05McDonaldT | July 9th 11 | the simple differences are that the songs are better and the album feels more "metal"
