Мы действительно с нетерпением ждем, когда наши фанаты в очередной раз убедятся в том что мы неимоверно крутые и сами подтвердят это утверждение. В это мы вкладываем понятие, что мы сделали альбом таким, каким хотели сделать его мы: мы его создавали как группа, репетировали как группа, и записывались как группа. Вы услышите на альбоме нашу энергию и наше сильное желание донести наш материал до ваших ушей.

Очередной перл в дискографии группы, коих, на самом-то деле, не так уж и много. Справедливости ради, стоит заметить, что ныне единственный капитан, Конечко, склоняется к более живой музыке, всё оттесняя индустриальную составляющую на задний план. Альбом мягковат, мог бы быть немного пожестче. Что, вообще-то, не обязательно, ибо желчи в нём хватает и так!

Самый лучший альбом MDB, который до сих пор они выпустили. Тут все уравновешенно. И печаль, но не занудство. И музыка, и текст. Фирменные скрипки. Великолепные нерастянутые мелодии. В прошлых альбомах было довольно много размытости. Тут все четко. Каждая песня - запоминается и глубоко врезается в память. Этот диск хочется слушать еще и еще. На "For You" был снят отличный клип. Многим людям не нравится MDB именно из-за нудных монотонных мелодий, которые быстро надоедает слушать. Мой им совет - послушайте этот диск. Вместе с "34.788% .. complete" этот альбом занимает лучшее место в музыкальной коллекции любого меломана.

The 18th studio album by British heavy metal band Judas Priest. It is the first studio album since 1988's Ram It Down to be produced by Tom Allom, and the first one with Andy Sneap as co-producer. Music videos were made for "Lightning Strike" and "Spectre".

«Племя» обнажает всю красоту своей древневосточной направленности, с помощью отличных клавишных пассажей (красивее и загадочнее которых вы, пожалуй, уже не услышите), переплетающихся с гармоничным сочетанием death-металлических риффов и джазовой музыки. Действительно профессиональная звукозапись и микширование играет немаловажную роль вкупе с великолепными и оригинальными аранжировками - эта работа сразу привлекает своим высочайшим уровнем мастерства всех участников, начиная от самих музыкантов и заканчивая командой звукорежиссеров и продюсеров.

"Hadeon" являет собой третью инкарнацию Pestilence. После, на этот раз, небольшого перерыва, Мамели решил устроить очередную перезагрузку, в буквальном смысле психанув. Все композиции очень короткие, поэтому от них сложно устать при прослушивании. Конструкция каждой композиции при этом отличается от предыдущей и последующей, а потому, когда сменяется трек, каждый раз любопытно: что же дальше? Все композиции на альбоме так или иначе исполнены в быстром темпе, что делает весь альбом Death Metal-аналогом пулеметной очереди.
