I know I’m a little late in here, but hey I’m new to the site. Although I enjoyed the Deliver Us album, I was worried DH was going a little soft on us. I’m glad they picked it back up on the new album.

I dunno about their post-Undoing Ruin material. On Undoing Ruin they pretty much recorded the best melodic death album an American band could write. It was nearly perfect.
I won”t go in to the debate on whether DH are melodic death or metalcore here, though though the type of melodic death I’m implying here is closer to Slaughter of the Soul.

Deliver Us sounded a bit experimental for DH – some of the songwriting sounded slightly different from their usual stuff, and some guitar work was even reminiscent of Devin Townsend, even on the tracks that he didn’t appear on. The album wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t Undoing Ruin.

This new stuff though sounds more like Sadist Nation that anything else, with the exception of their new guitarist. While Devolution of the Flesh sounds like classic DH, the guitar solo on No God is completely different from anything they’ve written before, and I’d even go so far as to say that in style, it’s a bit advanced and a little avant-garde -sounding for the rest of the music.

That’s my 10 cents here.

This song has everything about old darkest hour that I love, and his vocals sound fucking pissed. Great song, At All Cost was sick so I am excited to see what that guy does for the band.

Brock, I was thinking the same thing. Pretty decent song. But I’m more excited for DevilDriver’s new album.

kris norris made this band so much better. new stuff is okay but not nearly as good as undoing ruin and deliver us

Man, thanks to this, the He is Legend, and the Maylene, I think I’ve been on myspace more the past week than I have been in years.

And yea, like I said about their last new song, I really like the new bite the vocals have to them.
