Free Music Notes for Those Once LoyalFree Music Review: All hail Bolt Thrower!
Where do I start? This album is superb from beginning to end. At First Light is a blazing opener. It begins with an ominous intro and then speeds up with some great guitar playing by Baz Thomson and Gavin Ward. This album is really the first time Jo Bench's bass playing has been so clear. The basslines are killer so I'm glad that listeners can actually hear it well. Martin Kearns has some real skills on the drums, sometimes reaching inhumanly fast speeds. Those Once Loyal also has a good mix of songs that are slower (but still heavy) such as The Killchain and faster songs such as Anti-Tank. I know it has been talked about a lot, but I feel I should mention it for those of you who are new to Bolt Thrower. This album marks the long-awaited return of vocalist Karl Willetts who was with the band during its inception in 1986. Don't get me wrong; Dave Ingram wasn't a bad replacement. In fact, he did pretty well on Honour, Valour, Pride. But I just feel (and many BT fans will agree) that Karl Willetts is just the right man for the job. When Willetts left the band, a piece of the band went with him. But now he's back with a vengeance! My favorite songs on here are At First Light, The Killchain, and Granite Wall, but they are all good. I think this is Bolt Thrower's best album to date. That says a lot for a death metal band who has been around for nearly 20 years. To still be making your best material 20 years into your career (only a select few death metal bands last that long anyway) speaks volumes about the character of this band. For Bolt Thrower fans and death metal fans in general, this album WILL NOT DISAPPOINT!!!
