Here is another album I stumbled across and remembered that I had reviewed their last release and had enjoyed it to some degree and remembered that there was also one classic excellent track that stood out above the rest. I was hoping for something of the same or better from this album, but after several listens in the iPod nothing really stood out from this average set of super heavy metal noise and I found myself loosing interest pretty quick. Fans of the band will no doubt be mostly pleased with this competent album, but for the casual listener(if this music could have such a thing) there is not much here to really excite. Rating 2.5/5.
