Free Music Notes for The Dethalbum (Deluxe Edition) (2CD)
Free Music Review: Dethalbum brings Metal over the Millenium divide
Hit: 4 Stars
With Dethalbum and the dark comedy of the Metalocalypse television show, Dethklok (and Brandon Small) finally manage to bridge 'real' metal into the new Millenium. Combining the low-E, high energy, "Cowboys From Hell" crunch of Metallica and Pantera, with the topical lyrical stylings of Megadeth yields a unique, much appreciated, "real" return of Heavy Metal to the masses.
God I appreciate getting to hear Murmaider, Go Forth and Die, Thunderhorse and Fansong. They really take me back to when Metal was Metal. And just like Metallica, you hear the melody and the song takes meaning for you, then you read the lyrics (because you sure can't understand them by simply listening) and your entire impression of what a song is trying to say to you changes.. a-la Master of Puppets and Fade to Black.
If you like good old 80s Heavy Metal, but would like to see it brought forward, 'punched up' and made a bit more relevant, take a look at Dethalbum. I consider it money well spent.
Free Music Review: purdy schweet!
Hit: 4 Stars
what's there to say....if you dig the show you'll dig the album,if you dig metal and don't mind the genre being parodied you'll probably like it too.the members are awesome,and gene hoglan's drumming has the usual pin-point precision and thunderclap power.hail metal!
the guys who did this album are touring this fall btw.
*edit:sucks that the printing for this got messed up and some never got theirs.sucks more that copies are selling for hundreds of dollars;this sort of thing's nothing new to me though--see it all the time with Buckethead albums here.Anyone who actually pays that much for one is an idiot though,since another printing's probably on the way soon.
Free Music Review: Brutally Awesome!!! but missing a couple songs
Hit: 4 Stars
Brendon Small has created an brutal, dark, murderous, fist in your face, speaker blowing, ear bleeding, (did I say brutal) metal CD!!! I must say however, I was a bit disappointed that "Sewn back together wrong" and "Crush my battle opponent's balls" were not on here. That said, the CD is still well worth having. If you can, I'd recomend waiting for Amazon to get a new shipment from Williams Street otherwise, if you just gotta have it, you'll have to pay a premium to the vendors that sell through Amazon.Free Music Review: 2nd deluxe CD screwed up - Why Amazon pulled CD?
Hit: 4 Stars
I got my deluxe CD from a different online retailer & found that my computer doesn't even see the 7 audio tracks on the 2nd CD & won't play them. It can only play the 2 video files. I tried it on other computers & they could play the tracks, but still can't view the tracks in Windows Explorer. So, maybe this problem is the reason Amazon pulled the CD.
1st CD works fine & love it.
Free Music Review: I had heard:
Hit: 4 Stars
That some sellers were selling this for over $100 bucks and when I saw the price on Amazon it was too much at the time so I went to EBAY and won mine at auction for believe it or not $5.00 freaking bucks. The second disc in the deluxe edition sucks in comparison to the BRUTAL main DETHALBUM release.
