And in English:
The heavy field crew owning the hardest working morale finally serves an album where the vocals, power and pace playing are just in a right relation. 37 minutes of tight sheer murder.
The band plays with unbelievable accuracy/precision without sacrificing the pleasant rhythmic tendency. The album is full of tight rhythm riffing, but the songs deserving a special mentioning are the sequensor-supported In Your Face, Next in Line, If You Want Peace... Prepare for War and We're Not Gonna Fall.
Every true heavy band needs a small dose of funk. And sexual organs. Roope Latvala is seemingly a welcome addition and since a long time the man is in an orchestra that is the worth of Stone. The vocals convince, especially as killing great chorus section has been accomplished to several of the songs: Are You Dead Yet?, Punch Me I Bleed, In Your Face, Living Dead Beat...
The only thing that scratches my ear is the plastic audio world of the syntesizer, but at this point it seems to be a genre convention that hardly bothers the audience of the band. Little programmed pieces work really well, for example at the beginning of the album.
Make the title track of the album their next single and there's no stopping. This album puts my own difficult Bodom relationship into a new form. I've always wished for success to the band, but never before have I enjoyed it's music this much.
PS. It will be exciting to see how the court trial that is in process affects Spine's sharp copy-pen.. as we're waiting for the newspaper articles.
