Okay, I'm a Death noob but that doesn't stop me from enjoying what I've heard. Spiritual Healing is a great album and I can't really find anything to complain about but there are some flaws in the album. For one, the songs can start to feel the same, I can't count the many times I've listened to this and not know the difference between the songs. The vocals can also sound a bit lame sometimes but it is still an enjoyable album. I thought this would be brutal death metal but when I listened to it, I can see this big thrash metal influence in here, from which I am accustomed. You can't help but nod your head when he's spitting out lyrics like "She's so naive, she's a stupid bitch!" The production is a bit on the weak side and the snare isn't very loud but his double bass skill makes up for it. The guitars have some cool, wierd riffs throughout the album but sometimes they can be pretty bland. I recommend this for old school death metal fans and thrash fans which aren't afraid to go up another level. |
