“March of Retribution,”is discordant and an intriguing opening.
“Thoughts and Prayers,” is a blistering take down of the current attitude toward disaster. A song that screams frustration and ensures it remains buried within the listener’s memory for time to come.
“Eradicate,” is an absolute twist in the myth. A song that comes out of the gate like a battering ram, determined to drive everyone into the pit.
“Protector,” weaves itself through, slowly producing a slice of carnage that drives the listener into a frenzy. This is a song that is sure to get a lot of momentum when performed live.
“Ubermacht,” takes a turn here and there. It branches out and demonstrates chaos theory in action.
“My Heart and the Ocean,” crackles with energy. A song that really gets to the heart of the matter, and produces something quite spectacular.
“Expatriate,” is slow, mournful and downright epic. A song that will be sure to get the people going.
“What War Means,” hits like a brick shit house and never lets up.
“Terminate The Unconcern,” weaves a tapestry through the shines, allowing the world to grow and demonstrate mass effect.
“The Ashes of My Enemies,” is a bridge, a song that hints at finale and promises more destruction.
“Children Of A Lesser God,”kicks things off. The guitars are on point through the song, driving the melody and ensuring the listener is firmly hooked on what is coming down the pipeline. The vocals are a snarling concoction of epicness and strength. A great way to open proceedings.
“La Résistance,” is different kind of monster. A song that twirls and twists through the slime and muck and produces something quite electic.
“The Sorrows of Victory,” is a slow moving song, one which takes a bit of time to get going, but when it does all hell breaks loose.
“Stateless,” is another mosh pit song waiting to happen. A song that drives things through and delivers the insanity to the world and ensures they know where it is coming from.
“Tirpitz,” slowly works itself up. The riffs are like machine guns moving through the song, driving everything forward and at the same time never giving an inch and always ensuring the listener knows whats up.
“Truther,” is a roaring cavern of chaos. A song that smashes through the doors and produces something quite terrifying.
“Critical Mass,” snarls with precision and pain, delivering the listener into bliss and oblivion at the same time.
“Eagles Among Vultures,” is straight up hardcore. A song that batters everything within it’s path and never lets up for even a moment.
“Weakness Leaving My Heart,” is an epic finisher.
The album is out on 20th March via Century Media.
