Essentially this album is Slayers ode to angsty teens everywhere. Most of the songs on the album are forgettable and boring. The only songs worth mentioning are Disciple and Payback. The lyrics are rather lame and could be written by a 14 year old. The riffs are dull and the drumming is mediocre. Overall, don't buy this album, really not worth it.
Noisy and calming, after listening to this nothing will seem quite as chill as this album is. Probably one of the best albums you'll ever listen to. 7.99 for this album is basically a steal.
So i'm a big fan of Kamelot and love their music! Since the album is amazing i'm going to break it down for you!
1. Regalis Apertura - Instrumental nothing spectacular here 2. Forever - amazing chorus, very soulful easily best song on the album. Awesome opener for the albums 3. Wings Of Despair - Generic but still good 4. The Spell - one of the songs you won't appreciate much after the first listen, it'll grow on you tho 5. Don't You Cry - a ballad and thanks to the vocals isn't boring 6. Karma - good song not too memorable tho 7. The Light I Shine On You - good song not memorable tho 8. Temples Of Gold - good song not memorable tho 9. Across the Highlands - good track, bouncy and exciting 10, 11, 12. - the Elizabeth trilogy nothing to great here, first song is more atmospheric, second song more ballad like, third song great power metal only four minutes long tho after that it's all silence.
Probably Avenged Sevenfolds best work in their career and notice i only gave them a 4 star rating. Thats because Avenged Sevenfold (a7x) isn't that great. No this is not Metal, its Post-Hardcore not metal more like a Hardcore Punk kinda music.
The album in general is better than STST which was a very sad album and if i had heard that album first i wouldn't have even bothered with these guys. Waking The Fallen is good because it has a mix of hardcore vocals and clean vocals and same fairly decent guitar (the drums suck as always)
The best tracks would be: I Won't See You Tonight Part 2, Second Heartbeat and Unholy Confessions
Lets face it a7x was meant to go mainstream they have no potential in getting fans in the underground. If you want music thats going to be worth your time take a look at Moonspell, Turisas, Helloween, Deicide, or Vital Remains
What's great about it: Well its better than their new stuff
What's not so great: It doesnt have that energy to it
Overall its an awesome album. Scoripion flower and Night Eternal are probably the best tracks on here. The really only bad thing is that its over priced but what choice do i have but to buy it at bestbuy? No other place sells good cds haha
but yeah if you like Lacuna Coil, Evanescence, Nightwish, Opeth, and bands like that you'll really enjoy this album.
What's great about it: Pretty much everything
What's not so great: The price and how they'res only 13 songs
this is an awesome album best ive boughten this year i just wish Best Buy would get Goremageddon and Archiac Abattior at the store in fargo ND cuz i would totally buy them!!!!!!!!!!!!!
worst album band i have ever heard nothing good about it. if you want a good album look at Amon Amarth or Turisas if you want good music or even Behemoth
