Free Music Notes for Stop at Nothing
Free Music Review: Not Fetus' best but it's still pretty good.
Hit: 4 Stars
I had gone out a few days after Christmas to get a few albums I had lokked at recently. I left the store with Dying Fetus' Stop At Nothing along with two other albums (Behemoth-Demigod and Overkill-Years Of Decay). I liked this album more than I thought I would. It has some awesome musicianship and technicallity. It is not as good as Destroy The Opposistion or Killing On Adrenaline but hey, only few bands can make music as good as those albums (cough cough *Nile and Behemoth* cough). I was immediately surprised at the brutallity right out of the gate with the awesome Schematics. The album even gets more surprising when even more songs are more enjoyable than I thought they would be. John Gallagher selected sightly less talented musicians for this album but they are all still extremely tight musicians. John and Mike Kimball grind out extremely tight riffs along with ripping solos. Sean Beasley can be heard throughout this album but not very much. Drummer Erik Sayenga, while a talented drummer, can't blast as well as Kevin Talley, who's amazing and mind-boggling drumming will be missed. John even went through the trouble to get a lead yeller to growl along with him. The pair is simply not as good as the John Gallagher/Jason Netherton combo from previous albums, though. This is because Vince Matthews vocals are deeper than Jason Netherton's. John has still got his signature ultra-gutteral bellows though. My main gripe, though, would be the production. It is mix low so the bass and John's voice can't be heard that well. Although there are many problems with this album it has a few enjoyable songs like Schematics, One Shot, One Kill, Forced Elimination, Stop At Nothing, Onslaught Of Malice, and Vengeance Unleashed. Despite the number of enjoyable songs and its technicallity and brutallity, Stop At Nothing is simply not as good as Destroy The Opposistion or Killing On Adrenaline. Start with those two albums first. Free Music Review: Best Ever

This is simply one of the best death metal/grindcore albums and bands ever. Nothing more is needed. Buy it.Free Music Review: Onslaught of malice, indeed
Hit: 5 Stars
As soon as the opening song kicks into high gear, you should realize that Dying Fetus' fifth album is about as heavy as heavy gets. It's also as dark as death metal gets. From the scorching riff and thunderous blast beat on "Schematics" to the pounding, earth shaking power chords which close out "Vengeance Unleashed," not a single ray of light or melody shines through on any of "Stop At Nothing." The words "brutal," "uncompromising," and "dissonant" don't even begin to describe this album. It's fueled by complex and walloping drum beats, crushing, sludgy riffs, and one of two vocal styles--very deep and growly "angry bear" vocals, or higher, more intelligible (but not quite hardcore) screams. And, of course, this is Dying Fetus, so the musicianship on display here is almost immeasurable. The drummer sounds inhuman, and the riffs are very complex. Plus, the guitar solos are usually a lot more technical than those of other death metal bands. "One Shot, One Kill" boasts ultra heavy, churning riffs and a stunning, speed of light blast beat, whereas songs like "Institutions of Deceit" and "Abandon All Hope" are backed by buzzsaw guitar maelstroms (plus the former track also has a fast, cracking snare drum.) Some songs even manage to be kind of catchy (consider the bobbing riffs and staccato vocals on "Forced Elimination"), and the appropriately titled seventh track, "Onslaught of Malice," is maybe the most complicated of the bunch. It marries slow, grinding riffs with many different tempos/rhythms, and also features a breakneck speed change. If you like heavy as heck death metal, virtuosic musicianship, or metal which combines brains with brawn, nothing should stand in your way of owning this album. In other words, Stop At Nothing until you buy this C.D.Free Music Review: BRUTAL AND MUSICAL!

Free Music Review: The turning point?Or just an experiment?
Hit: 5 Stars
Let me start off by saying,if you are expecting anything along the lines of Destroy the Opposition...it is not going to happen.
This album is where Dying fetus redefine their sound.
Punk influences are even in this record.The whole line up has changed,and John Galagher is the only remaining original member,so the music is quite a bit different.
The verses seem to become a little boring at times,but interesting,alternatign from slow riffs to speedy riffs.DF still have the ability,to maintain powerful godly riffs,just a little less for this release.
Though this album may lack a little bit of expectations as one would expect,it has many classic Fetus songs.
1.Schematics: By far my favourite song on the album,the riffs just asault you like the riffs in Destroy the Opposition.Vocals are powerful and the lyrical content has never been better.This is the song that converted me into a Dying fetus fan. 999999..../10
2.One shot,one kill: This song starts off with a catchy riff,something that almost suites a sports video game,the song si extremely catchy and is the single off the album,another classic song. 8.5/10
3.Institutions of deciet: This song took awhile to grow on me,it didnt hit me at first,but after awhile,the riffs seem to blend together....and the slow riffs become favourites. 7.5/10
4.Abandon all hope: This song is nothing special,the odd guitar riff sounds great,but nothing too special. 6/10
5.Forced elimination: This song is quite catchy,reminds me of earlier DF songs,this song is extremely fast and blends a lot of punk influences in it. 7/10
6.Stop at nothing: Ah,yes,the album titled song,great song.I do not know really what to say about it,but it is great! 8/10
7.Onslaught of Malice: Never really liked this song,one riff kciks ass though! 5/10
8.Vengeance unleashed: It took a long time for this one to grow on me,a death metal asault,great song! 8.5/10
Overall,this album has its ups and downs,but I am glad to own it.
