Total Difference
Review Score: 








(10/10)
Usually when a band shifts gears a la Entombed did with "Same Difference", they simply cannot come back (see Metallica). Well, Entombed has proven me wrong. On the heels of the aforementioned experimental opus, "Same Difference", it seems like Entombed just got ... and made a stellar, unrelentingly brutal death and roll masterpiece in "Uprising". From the opening cut, "Seeing Red", a perfect fusion of old school blues and death metal to "Won't Back Down", simply one of the most pummelling metal songs of all time, the Tombers came back with a vengeance and make no bones about it. "Say it In Slugs" slugs you in the gut and raps you over the head; "The Itch" seems like it could have been lifted from Sabbath's Vol. 4; "The Only Ones" is sludgy and mean; "Come Clean" is just nasty; and there's plenty more good cuts on there. Basically, Entombed have proven me wrong and in the process created one of the best metal albums I have ever heard. DEFINITELY BUY THIS DISC! And if you HAVEN'T heard the follow up, "Morning Star", BUY THAT TOO!
