Evolution is always good... especially for FBC

"I have to say, Full Blown Chaos has evolved into something greater. Even though they are a lot less hardcore and now have more of a death metal sound, it is still amazing. The drums, guitars and bass have evolved for the best, for there are faster and harder riffs along with the drumming (there are a hella lot more double bass drum... which is good). And I have to say, the screaming has also evolved greatly. Before, it was a lower sound, but it is now a higher pitch with more control; they are not making their own sound. I think I can speak for everyone when I say that in their next album, they will have made their own sound completly.



I do have to say that it took me awhile to get used to it. For the vocals were totally different and I too used to Wake The Demons (I still am waiting for Prophet of Hostility to come out at my record store >_"

A Fine Follow-up

"These guys are back with as much brutality and skull-crushing metal as they ever had. The song writing on this record is a little more stream-lined than their previous efforts. Not a bad thing, but whereas on Prophet of Hostility and Wake the Demons FBC jumped around everywhere, this record still has those changes but to a lesser extent in each track. Mostly, each tune has a breakdown that takes it in an unexpected but satifying direction. Songs like Life of Sorrow, where the first half is a speed run and then the drummer introduces the new rhymic pattern on his snare drum before the whole band picks it up. Chopping Block does the same thing; the song starts with a pulverizing rhythm and ends with a groove. Look for the hidden track after The Voorhees Complex. They retracked Blood Flow while recording Titans and it sounds killer. All in all this is an excellent follow-up, and should satisfy their fans."
