5.0 classic
Rammstein Liebe Ist Für Alle Da
The Black Dahlia Murder Nocturnal
I want to start by saying I think this album is ***ing amazing, plain and simple!

Metal has seen a new wave of bands similar to The Black Dahlia Murder but none of them come anywhere close to reaching the status and quality that TBDM have reached at this point in their career. I had the privelige of supporting them on their UK Tour in Liverpool and seeing most of this album first hand!

This is the third album by TBDM now and arguably their best! From their release of Miasma it's clear what they have worked on.


Right from the opening track "everything went black" you are thrown to the floor and jumped on as the typical black dahlia super fast alternative riff kicks in , followed by that trademark high pitch scream from the vocalist!

Everything on this album is an improvement from Miasma, from the guitar tone and production in general to the individual playing on the album. Both guitar players have reached a new level with songs like "What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse" and "Nocturnal" testing the right hands of any willing metal guitar player!

The lack Dahlia have presented themselves on this album as a band to aim for, whether it be technically, or personally!

INTO THE TOWER MOTHER***ERS!

4.5 superb
Scar Symmetry Dark Matter Dimensions

4.0 excellent
Edguy Hellfire Club
Okay, for me EDGUY are the new face of "power metal" as we know it. For one the guitar tone is much heavier giving it that edge over its other musical counterparts.

I decided to review this album as I it is in my oppinion Edguy's best album and the best example of the bands sound.

As soon as you press play , you are thrown straight into the fast , energetic, CHEESY song "Mysteria" and as soon as it begins you can no help but bang your head and sing along! One thing that I will say about this album that i found one of its strongest points is that , yes every song is pretty much similar BUT , I found that i was not getting bored and just loved the fact that it was relentless and didn't wait for the listener to catch up!

If you look at other power metal bands, EDGUY have approached this album a different way. No bull*** with all the fantasy , just a album of straight out rock songs with that power metal edge!

One of the greatest power metal albums of all time!
