New Death Angel...

Just listening to Lord Of Hate (first track) and god, the drums sound awful and the acoustic guitarintro is so sloppily played ...

... I mean, those are all things to be disregarded if the songs rock, but still - it's really strange!
 
I like the somewhat "dirty" production A LOT. It just fits the music and gives an edge to it. I'm always a bit divided on overly sterile Thrash productions.
 
I dig the production - it fits the band really well. The CD though is kind of forgettable for me, there's one or two good songs and a few good riffs but not much that makes me want to listen to it again. Act III and Frolic Though the Park are still way better in my opinion.
