Digimortal - 2001

Wow. This is definetly my favorite CD in my entire collection. Burton C. Bell has extremely impressive singing skills. The way he can switch from scream that sounds like it came straight outta hell, to a melodic, if not calming, vocal piece. His voice alone can have you hooked onto a song. Raymond Hererra (drums)can, and will, kick your ass repeatedly with his drum kit. He kicks bass drum beats so blisteringly fast, it'll leave you with swollen testicles, while you're on your knees cryin' to momma. Agian speed is the key with bass player Christian Olde Wolburs. He has a LOT of influence on my bass playing. His key to the band is supporting the raw heaviness of each song, and he does it well. Dino Cezares is the best guitar player in the world. Going from low frets to 10 frets higher is not easy, AT ALL. He has much, MUCH, of my respect. The best thing about this album is that, even if it isn't the coolest song on the album, its got a cool part. The album pretty much follows up the past records with thier apocolyptic, man vs. machine, strain vs. resistance (<--track title), themes. Please , AND I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, go buy this CD. You will not regret it.
