Free Music Notes for Code Is Red: Long Live the Code (Bonus CD)
Free Music Review: The Gods of Grind keep getting better.
Hit: 5 Stars
Napalm Death is the only band around who is writing some of their very best material after almost 20 years in the scene. All of ND's stuff is good, but since they left earache the material has been phenomenal. This is no exception. "The Code is Red...Long Live the Code" is one of the best napalm albums yet. I can't see any fan being disappointed by this.
The departure of Jesse Pintado makes this the first album since "Harmony Corruption" to feature a different line up. Thankfully, ND have not let it slow them down one bit. Mitch Harris carries the guitar duties just fine without the aide of Jesse. Barney's vocals are as vicious as ever, with some of the best and most intelligent lyrics yet. Danny Herrera's drumming is terrific with plenty of variety but also plenty of blasting! The drums also sound much better than they did on "Order of the Leech". I'm not sure if they are triggered or not, and that's a good thing. the drums on OOTL were triggered to the point of sounding mechanical. On TCIR...LLTC the drums sound much more natural and blend well with the music. And what can be said for Shane Embury? He is a grindcore legend.
The songwriting on this album is much more varied than OOTL. As one previous reviewer said, we are seeing an integration here of the many styles of ND. This album has a greater variety of song lengths, with 3 songs clocking in over 4 minutes and 3 under 2 minutes. One of these actually speeds by in under a minute, a real treat for old school grind fans! There are a number of lightning fast grind songs but this time we also have a couple slow tracks ("Morale," "Our Pain is their Power") in a style that has not been heard since the diatribes era. A couple songs also feature guitar riffs that sound reminiscent of "Words from the Exit Wound's" more melodic style of playing. The guest vocals from Jamey Jasta (hatebreed), Jello Biafra, and Jeff Walker (ex-CARCASS, of course!) also add character to a few of the songs.
Also noteworthy are some of the background vocals. Mitch Harris adds some ear shattering highs to a few of the tracks which make a great contrast to Barney's gruff vocals. Some of the tracks (if I'm not mistaken) also feature barney's funny high screams that he first performed on "Leaders Not Followers: part 1". A nice addition.
All in all, this is one of the BEST napalm albums and an essential grind record. The music is brutal and the songwriting is top notch. Napalm Death are truly the kings of this genre and they have proven themsleves yet again.
