Maybe
the best album cover I have ever seen, but what’s
with the Metallica Black album
snake inside? You guys can’t be that young. Now
its obvious the classic sounds of old school original
hardcore are back, maybe with a bit better production.
I am not sure that’s good or bad, I guess I like
it for the new bands’ turn to the purity of what
hardcore was; cause let’s be real, some of it
got lost the last few years and went in some fucking
ASS directions. I don’t know what my point is
there, but in addition to the dope cover Some Kind of
Hate deliver some classics. I love the anger in the
simple lyrics and the vocal delivery, truly pissed off.
Any band that can rock a “Fuck you!
Fuck you! Fuck you!” chorus is awesome.
That’s Some Kind of Hate! (bridge

Without
a doubt this record definitely deserves to be on MetalBlade.
Frail Words Collapse falls
into that murky area between metal and hardcore. And
not hardcore by its purist definition but the new version
of hardcore that seems to be everywhere these days.
The record opens up strong with 94 Hours but
it gets lost in a sea of blast beats, off key singing,
guitar solos, and breakdowns, though that song Forever
is the jam. It just feels like every band 2004. Not
bad but far from large. I’d rather listen to The
Haunted. (metalblade) |

Goddamn,
hip-hop is throwing me for a loop lately. Def Jam once
again reaffirms itself as the pioneers of all that is
hip-hop. I’m actually happy with some of the shit
that’s dropping these days. Ghostface was probably
one of my least favorite Wu-Tang members until Pretty
Toney. You can feel the streets off this
piece. No other means but fire. Still maintaining the
beat bangers, this record reads like a storybook. I
believe Ghostface on Pretty Toney.

For
a minute there I thought I might actually like a Slipknot
record. It was all an illusion kids. Like people I’m
not a fan of gimmick metal, though these guys definitely
hold their own musically. The record starts off a little
interesting with some space rock type shit on Prelude
3.0. It just goes downhill from there into some
sickening blend of Stone Sour (too much), old Slipknot,
ballads, and juiced up rap-rock. Gross! Oh yeah, it’s
fitting that they’d pick Duality,
with it’s Prong like overtones, as their first
single. It’s probably the best song on the record.
Let’s keep it nice and easy guys.
