Synopsis

Amazon.com
"Violence begins to mend what was broken." Boy, how he does it. Choosing not to borrow the pinky ring flash of the Underworld and but rather good old fashioned eye for eye justice, singer Randy Blythe croaks savagely though "Omerta." Backed by a healthy dose of lumbering menace, the song is sung as if by vengeance itself. Violence begetting violence is a constant on this album, both in music and word; in both personal trial and world politics. Lamb of God have show their 80's thrash roots on Ashes of the Wake by featuring solos from both Testament and Megadeth. The band plows forward taking from the new, the old, and adding their own stamp--heavy, angry, and political. --Daniel Mahon

"Please don't buy this thing. The CD side is fine, but the DVD side is a waste of money. The album itself is good, so just buy the CD. The 5.1 mix is crap. The vocals are really loud and stuck in the center speaker. The guitars aren't loud enough, the cymbals'll make your ears bleed and are too loud, and the rears aren't used nearly enough for music this aggressive. Worst of all, the songs are changed! "Break You"'s vocals keep speeding up and slowing down, changing pitch. Some songs have a few words removed (not cuss words), and sound effects changed. In "Now You've Got Something to Die For" everything goes silent towards the end all of a sudden, and then comes back just as suddenly, skipping a few seconds of the song. The CD side is identical to the original as is the DVD stereo, which is only 48KHz/16bit resolution (CD is 44.1/16) so it doesn't sound much better (it actually sounds worse due to a top range volume cut that Sony applies to all of its DualDisc's DVD stereo)."
