WOW! Who would of thought that the bassist, guitarists and drummer are all new! Their styles are dead on compared to the first album. Killer release! Nice review! :dio:

I really hope this sounds like their latest album! To be honest I was rather worried that they changed the guitarists, bassist and drummer!!!

It's better. It's still unmistakebly 3 Inches of Blood, but everything is just so pumped up.

If you noticed at the bottom of the review, the guy from metal district gave it a 4 / 10. That whole website is in German, so I can't read his review neraly at all, but that seems quite low for something like this.

Yeah, well, that's hardly the common opinion.

Exactly, that's why I would like to be able to see what that guy thought was so poor about it. He is in a pretty small minority.

I love this album. I think Cam's vocals were used more too. Man that guy can sing.

The main thing I like about this album is I don't have to listen to one track five times before going to the next (which was the case with Deadly Sinners). Every song has equal appeal IMO.

Goatriders' horse is growing on me, but I still think they're pretty overrated. Not starting a war, just saying. Mid 70s at most, from what I've heard...

Haven't given the 2nd half of the album a proper listen yet, but the first half is intense and both Night Marauders and God of The Cold White Silence are in my top 5 favorite songs of the year, so thats saying something, I predict this album in my top 3.

No worries. Do you like it more than the first one though?

I seriously doubt if I would listen to their song on myspace if it didn't get so many replies and a good review here, well, I did and I fucking loved it. So energetic. "Let's get psyched!! :dio: " isn't really my thing but these guys seem do it well. I'll give the whole album a shot.

i feel the album is overrated. it's pretty generic metal. There's not an ounce of innovation and though it is fun and gets you pumped up, i don't feel like it "furthers" the genre in any way. Mid 70's for the fun, bang your head moments tho.

Well, no it doesn't really further the genre. However, it is a great representative of heavy metal in general, and manages to captivate me enough to listen to the whole thing without getting bored or fed up.
