Vader Is Metal

Review Score:

(8/10)
I purchased this album after reading a favorable review of it in a magazine. I have never owned a Vadar album before, but thier reputation preceeds them.

This album lets you know someone is knocking at the door. Heavy, fast, thumping, and interesting. Vader is metal. Two heavy guitars, a harsh growly voice, and a good rhythum section keep this band together. This band is not exploring any new territory, they keep it straight ahead. I mean that in a good way, no messing around.

A solid well-produced package. The opening double bass drum kicks on Wings lets you know what you are in for throughout the rest of the album. It is warmly recieved. This is the album you can play for your other metal buddies and everyone will be satisfied.

The songs I enjoy most are the opener Wings, The Calling and Lithany. Lithany is a group of adjectives and can mean something different to everyone. I like the overall tone of the album, it is good upon first listen and there are reasons to revisit.

It is a not an overly technical metal album, which doesn't mean they don't know what thier doing though. If you like Pantera, Korn, Deicide, Soulfly, Sepultura, etc you will like Vader.

This album is worth your time and your money.
