It’s just about the only metal news site I go to anymore (if it‘s important, you‘ll post it). I really like your sense of humor and take on things, it’s much like my own. Keep up the great work. Anyway, I couldn’t agree more with your review of this album. It sucks for them that they are still getting all kinds of attention for sounding like Slayer. This album is better than their last with the band starting to find it’s own identity. Besides, there are a lot worse things for a metal band than being constantly compared to Slayer. Slayer is one of my two all time favorite bands and I don’t mind the similarities one bit. I like these guys and this album. I was fortunate to catch them live last Saturday and they totally rocked. Your comparison of the band to the Tasmanian Devil is pretty right on. Especially when it come to the drummer Dustin. The guy is more out of control behind his kit than Animal from the Muppets. I got a bunch of great pictures of the band if you’d like to check them out. http://www.myspace.com/damagedmike And yeah, Rutan is quickly becoming the go to metal producer. I agree about TTEOTD’s drum sound, but I think that has more to do with the drummer wanting to use triggers than the producer’s. I think what sets Rutan apart is there isn’t the “Rutan sound” that is the same throughout the albums he produces. What makes him such a good producer is his ability to get the best performances out of a band, while enhancing their sound without changing it. Each band he produces ends up with an album that is a much closer representation of who they are. The triggers are the band, not Rutan. I think he continues to grow as a producer as well.

Maybe it's cuz I'm a drummer, but I fucking HATE the drum sound on that record. I'm overly sick of the whole trigger thing anyhow. But the TTEOTD record is one of the worst offenders in that category. I haven't been able to get past that drum sound to even enjoy the record. That said, Demiricous is the balls.
