3 out of 5 stars Average Angel   August 16, 2008
I liked these guys for years. Loved 'Ultra Violence', wasnt into 'Frolic', loved 'Act III'. they split for many years and came back a few years ago with an average disc.

Picked this up and again, mediocre at best. the growth has stagnated somehow. The production and sound is nowhere near as good as on 'Act III' which is to be expected I suppose seeing this isnt on a major label, but Exodus makes some great sounding discs and they are on the same label. There isnt much that happens in the songs. Straight forward, mid paced numbers with the occassional hook, but something isnt the same. Lyrically its pretty weak. Has the feel of a 'play it VERY safe' disc.

There are some good tunes though..'Sonic Beatdown', 'God vs. God', 'Buried Alive' and 'Noose' are decent and crankable. But again, i wont pick it up a lot. There is just nothing new going on. They have been practicing though as there are some excellent guitar solo's on here. I just miss the melody and more complex structures of their older stuff.

Get it if you dont mind the Same Ole'..

A true modern thrash triumph. I wouldn't go so far as to call it a masterpiece, but it's pretty darn consistent throughout, and it has great solos (as always with Death Angel). The singing is rough, but it fits the music better than it ever has before. It may not be as good as Act III, but it definitely comes close.


4 out of 5 stars Good but not very good.   July 1, 2008

I've never been a big fan of Death Angel. Despite owning Act III, which is ok, I've just been sort of been indifferent to them. Heard a song off this album on a sampler cd with a magazine and read a lot of good reviews and decided to give this album a try.

I don't listen to a lot of new metal bands, as I'm not a big fan of the growling death metal vocal style, which almost every new band seems to use. Anyway, Death Angel keeps their sound/style, but doesn't sound dated on this album.

The best part of all - each song is very strong and special. I am enjoying this album.

I think before album (AOD) better than this.

I have been a Death Angel fan since I was in High School,in the 80's. This cd is Weak,horable,crapy,and utter trash.... there is not 1 good song on this cd...not 1. the lyrics are stupid,the music is soft,i dont know what cd the other raters of the cd heard but the cd that i listened to was trash..please dont waste your time or money on this 1. i would rather eat beans and listen to myself fart than listen to this again.i am very disapointed seeing as DA was 1 of my faves...the only reason i gave it 1 star is because i had to or i would have given it no stars

Death Angel is back and they sound excellent. I have been a fan since the first album and I must say this is probably the best sounding one so far! They have merged their sound with the old and new and created an incredible album with lots of energy. The vocals are very nice. This album is definitely worth buying.
