Karl Schubach is a talented musician, there is no doubt about that. The man knows how play heavy and
brutal music while still having room for catchy and beautiful melodies. The fact that he has also don this
album mostly on his own prove that our Canadian friend has guts and really wants to showcase his
awesomeness. Nevertheless, I just want to point out one thing that bugs me on this album. Literally EVERY
SINGLE SONG on Call And Response is about anti-religion related themes. Now I'm not religious, but I have
no problem with religion at all. The simple fact that Karl only writes about bashing the living s**t out of
religion all the time personally disturbs me. Actually, come to think of it, Karl seems to be indirectly
praising/supporting the efforts of militant atheists by asking for evidence ("with no evidence..." from Curse
Of The Living). A little lyrical diversity could have made this album phenomenal.
