slam slam, slammy, slammin'. this album is great. i mean, no quarrels here... we knew what
we were getting into when we listened to it. more of the same (isn't a bad thing). vocals
sound great imho, matti way is a nice fit for this band. it's also nicely produced as
well... i think this is one of the only slam albums that i'll be able to listen to again and
again. fun album.
vv - Dude below me... C'mon!! This is SLAM... with Matti Way!! |

This one is probably my least favorite because they are tapping into a new style. I felt most of the music was "floaty" at times, as compared to some of the stuff they have on their older albums, but this could also be the production value. Don't get me wrong, the musicianship is there and it IS goddamn technical. I just felt that they were just wanking around too much at some points, and should get back to them more brutal riffs. Jacoby left the band (the bassist), and I really liked his vocal presence on the older albums... and on this album it just kinda felt less brutal and more "eh... cookie monster eating cookies." Here's to hoping the next album is even better than this one. Overall I think it rules, and the lyrics are pretty entertaining.
On a side note: This album could be good for people who want to start to get into Deeds of Flesh, without really knowing who/what they sounded like in the past. |

| mr. haley really shines on this album. however i feel like there was way too much of a focus on him shredding. i mean, no complaints with the riffs- some of 'em are the best i've heard in death metal (at least, some of the most original)! but yeah, kinda boring... and yes... the vocals kinda suck. |
