Free Music Review: Extremely good extreme metal
Hit: 5 Stars
It's really good to see that in 2009, Napalm Death is not only still around, but also still putting out music that is fresh, exciting, and vital. While I don't think this album is quite as good as Smear Campaign, which I think is one of the best metal albums of the decade, I do think that it fits well with the last several releases and shows that Napalm is in top form. Album after album, Mitch Harris delivers some of the most unique and brutal riffs you'll hear, and he does that on this CD on the title track, Downbeat Clique, Procrastination on the Empty Vessel, and several others. Danny's drumming is again stellar, the blast beats intensely fast, the breakdowns as heavy as possible, and he, as usual, helps create that enormous wall of sound Napalm is famous for (along with Shane of course). And Barney's vocals are the best in extreme metal. He has evolved into such a forceful, emotional vocalist, and very few in this genre have been able to do that. He was knocked earlier in the band's career for being monotonous, but he has been anything but on the last several albums. He manages to find ways of varying his screams and roars, also mixing in clean vocals at times, so that the listener gets a real performance, not just some guy screaming his head off for 45 minutes. Their songwriting, riffs, lyrics, and attitude are all as good as ever, if not better, and I'm very happy that this CD is as good as it is.
"Strong-Arm"-
"Diktat"-
"Work to Rule"- All three of these tracks open the CD in the same vein as Smear Campaign; intense grindcore, especially the middle of Work to Rule. All three songs stand out individually, but as a trio, they absolutely pummel you right at the outset.
"On the Brink of Extinction"- Mid-paced hardcore song written by Shane. Very catchy thrash verses, chorus, and ending. Great song.
With "Time Waits For No Slave," the album starts to get a little experimental for the next seven tracks, differing noticeably from "Smear Campaign." The title track has some very fast parts, but the chorus is a bit weird, with clean, droning vocals.
"Life and Limb"- Sort of a thrash song with some punk sounding parts here and there. Would be at home on "Words From the Exit Wound."
"Downbeat Clique"- Great song that ranges from thrash to grind, with some of the more interesting riffing. Also good blast beats, keeping the album from getting too slow.
"Fallacy Dominion"- Another standout, featuring thrash verses, an intense, fast chorus, and one of Napalm's catchiest slower sections with clean vocals mixed into the roars. Strong songwriting.
"Passive Tense"- Another good thrash song, as this middle section of the CD seems to rely heavily on mid-paced to slightly fast beats with a few blast beats mixed in. The songs aren't boring though, as some on "Words From the Exit Wound" were. Again, good riffs and vocals.
"Larceny of the Heart"- This and the next song are probably the most experimental on the album. This song sounds a lot like some of the songs with clean guitars on "Words From the Exit Wound," but again, the riffs are much more interesting, catchy, and memorable. This song will definitely get stuck in your head.
"Procrastination on the Empty Vessel"- This song would fit right in on "Diatribes," with weird sounding clean guitars that somehow still sound extreme and very heavy. This song is strangely serene and dreamlike at the same time as being intense. Great stuff.
"Feeling Redundant"-
"A No-Sided Argument"-
"De-evolution Ad Nauseum"- For the last three tracks, the album goes back to extreme grind, songs that would be at home on "Smear Campaign" or "Order of the Leech." All three feature excellent musicianship, blazing speed, and memorable parts. I love how the album is bookended by the six fastest songs, three at the beginning and three at the end. "Time Waits For No Slave" will undoubtedly be one of the best metal albums of the year, and it shows that Napalm Death is still one of the major players in heavy music.
Time Waits for No Slave Poster
Time Waits For No Slave, the band's 13th studio album proves that as long as this is a world gone wrong, Napalm Death will be utilizing their artistic arsenal to attack those in charge, no matter if their fanaticism stems from a political, religious or simply greedy motivation. With this album, they remain at the helm of today's extreme music scene and humbly yet ferociously solidifying their legendary status once again!Alternative Rock Music CDs
