CD Reviews

Metal Survivalists Grow Stronger.

"Despite the fact that their music hasn't quite found it's audience, despite the fact that they may never quite gain the same level of success as their peers, Dry Kill Logic still press on, doing what they do best. And you have to respect them for it. With their Roadrunner debut, "The Darker Side Of Nonsense," it seemed like the band were destined for bigger things, as that album was a perfect snapshot of nu-metal at the time, taking elements from the likes of Slipknot and Mudvayne. However, things fell apart and when they finally re-emerged in 2004, with "The Dead And Dreaming," they had a more modern sound, fusing what was already established on the debut with the modern metalcore sound. As strong as it was, that album never quite took off either. So it's no surprise that on their third album, "Of Vengeance And Violence," DKL sound comfortable just being themselves and playing good, hard, honest music. They've made it this far, does it really matter what scene they fit into? No.



Sounds Like: A great metal band who refuse to fold.



The Good:

- Cliff's vocals have improved immensely and his lyrics sound more passionate than ever.

- The band seems to have more of an identity now. No longer do they sound like a Hatebreed or Mudvayne cover band.

- The music branches out into new territories, delivering some exceptional ballads in the midst of it all.



The Bad:

- The heavier songs tend to blend with one another too much.

- The album doesn't really take off until the second half.



Hits: "From Victim to Killer," "Confidence Vs. Consequences," "Lying Through Your Teeth," and the softer songs "Kingdom Of The Blind" and "In Memoria Di."



Future: Well, it may not be Dry Kill Logic's big hit, but definitely insures that the guys are going strong. Most bands probably would have given up by this point, but not this one.



Personally: The first two DKL albums didn't exactly qualify as classics in my book. This one comes pretty damn close. It's easily the most competent and fully realized album of their career.



Best Listened To When: Today's metal gets rusty."
Vengeful, Violent, DRY KILL LOGIC Mother Fu**ers!!!

"This cd is very good. The singer sounds alot better than on their last release. The intensity level is turned up a little too. There are some ballad stuff on here, but it doesn't slow the album down much at all. The slower stuff is actually quite good. The music is fast, loud, and in your face. The band is very talented and it shows on this recording. I can't say there is a weak song on the whole cd, it is that strong my friends. My favorite track on here is 'BONEYARD', it is brutal and intense. If you like any of their other stuff, pick this up and support this great band. This is their best cd of their career, I don't care what anyone says cuz the music speaks for itself. This is a damn good metal album!"
Not bad

"I'm a fan of DKL after hearing their last alubm, The Dead and Dreaming. All I can say for this latest release is not as good as the last outing. For fans of DKL only...."
