Review:
After another extended span with no new releases (5 years) the Swedish D-Beat powerhouse is back in business with Live the Storm showcasing their dominance over the dis scene again with 10 fresh new tracks of bad ass for you to check out.
Featuring legendary names such as Tomas Lindberg (At the Gates) on vocals and Uffe Cederlund of Entombed fame running guitar it comes as no surprise that this album is as good as it is. Seriously! Lindberg, Gang vocals, thick overdriven guitars that straight up rock, and the very capable hands of Kurt Ballou in charge of the recording it would have been really hard to screw this release up for me.
For 6 hours straight this album worked as my hangover cure at work last night and while getting a little repetitive at times that could very well just be hours of listening to one album in the dreary morning hours. No worries though as plenty of the songs stick out from one another and it'll stick the riffs neatly in your brain so you will be banging your head to them in the proper order when you find yourself in a moment of silence. There's not much new going on here if you've heard them before so if you have been a long time fan you will know exactly what to expect but if you are new and have any interest in d-beat or any of the legendary bands that preceded Disfear this album is as good a place to start as any if not the best.
