Peace or annihilation? It's your choice...your choice

Review Score: (10/10)
The first time I listened to this album I was disappointed because I was expecting heavy covers of songs about peace love and war. But by the third listen I was in love with it, all of the songs are beautiful, eerie, and moving. From the start of "Annihilation" to the last seconds of "Fiddle And The Drum". "Imagine" is amazing, Maynard's voice is mellow and depressing, he said he tried to sound like Lennon would sound if he sang it today, even more sad. "Peace Love And Understanding, and What's Going On" are covers of some pretty "un metal" songs and are incredibly well done by the circle. "Passive" and "Counting Bodies..." are the only new songs on the album and are two of their best, Passive is brutal and unmerciful, and Counting Bodies is VERY easy to get stuck in your head. These are some of my favorite songs on this masterpiece, other greats are "Let's Have A War", and "Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie". Don't listen to the closed minded "metalheads" and buy, burn, or steal this album NOW!!!
