I really like this record. I like the guitar and drum tones on here better than there other records. They sound huge and clear. A few of the songs are kinda sub-par, but the best songs on here (There Will Be Blood, Goliath, F-Unit) are badass and unique. There isnt as much grind on here as their previous records, but they still have the grind asthetic and there is more groove on here than anything they have done before. Not groove in a southern metal way, but rather groove in a “Raining Blood” way!

Burnt By The Sun is freaking awesome. It’s too bad they have to go out, but to go out like this is pretty damn good.

Yeah I noticed it was from MTV, but that’s a pretty ridiculous statement no matter what the source

Why not just listen to the album? Relapse is streaming it here: http://www.heartofdarkness.info/

I’m definitely digging this and I think I’ve only heard of BbtS before in passing. I don’t know why, but some of the songs are giving me a serious Pantera vibe – must be the grooves. I’ll definitely have to check out some of their earlier work.

I wouldn’t take the “heaviest band on the planet” thing seriously. It’s just one of those advertising things that the bands don’t write themselves. It’s written by MTV if you look at the ad which means it’s not valid at all.
I Loves this band though.

This band is amazing and way better than most of the “music” (if thats what you would call it) that bands are putting out today.

I liked some of the riffs…but this band being described as the heaviest on the planet? You’ve gotta be kidding.

It’s a good thing they don’t make metal like this anymore, because this shit sucks.

*a sea of kids combining hardcore and metal while managing to sterilize the soul out of both*

Truer words have seldom been written on this blog. BBTS will be missed.

This one is good but i’m a bit disappointed as it’s not as good as the awesome two previous albums.
