After getting to hear this record, I became a huge fan of As Blood Runs Black. They With some extremely powerful death metal vocals, giving you a mixture of some oh so orgasmic highs, and lows that could probably be compared to a pissed off cookie monster with no more cookies left in his jar. I'm a fan of chants, and they give you just that, making it good clean fun. Example; In the second song of the cd, “In Dying Days”, which to me is the standout song on the cd, they chant “Bring the mother fuckin' ruckus”, which leads me to ask...what's not to love about a song with a line like that. The guitar players are very talented, between their nice little melodic parts, solos, and dancy breakdown parts that would get any metalcore fan on their feet dancing, the guitar players give you everything you want to hear. They even have their own slowed down, instrumental track on the cd (“Pouring Rain”) where it's just them playing. It's a very relaxing one, and show's they can play more then just “YEAH BRO! METAL! IT'S BRUTAL DUDE!”. The drums are pretty tasty sounding, and cake on powerful blast beats, and double bass pedal that won't quit (perfect example being the last track of the cd “Legends Never Die”).
