On "Skepsis" he certainly does not fail at an all out call to arms for flaming battalions and war horns. On "The Renovation," (My Bitter End's impressive debut for Uprising that was released in 2007) Mike was able to melt away the skins of his toms and showcase a pretty worthy approach to technical progressive metal. On "Skepsis," you can find Mike Rinke from My Bitter End, doing the best he can to stay afloat the reality boat of mish-mash and make his mark on the band's attempt to destroy little villages and plunder deep sea treasures. The performance on "Malice" was drool-worthy and it was a tough digestion of news when the band indicated they had let go of their previous performer. The drums on "Skepsis" are something to speak for. Just check the noodling found at the end of "Inherit Obscurity," you'll know what we're talking about here. Not much has strayed from their "Malice" formula, which if you ask Cannibal Corpse (a band that hasn't strayed from their formula in almost 20 years) can be a good thing. They produced the album, and they got what they wanted. These guys have their parts on a lockdown. Aside from this culturally themed note slaughtering, there is a constant bottom end picking of open strings and fast-paced riffage that would make the average person slap on their "I'm With Stupid" shirt. These guys have been with the group since the start and have established their signature Aztec/Mediterranean polish that has lured their solos and leads into an impressive amount of melodies and compositions.

Despite this minor detail, "Skepsis" features a new front man. For one, I had no idea POW weren't together anymore, and two I had never really bothered to stay updated on his profile, especially with twitter only being a thing of recent times. I was personally a pretty enthusiastic supporter of Premonitions of War, and was rather excited when I saw the singer perform with the band when they opened for The Red Chord later that year. Here we are three years later with a new installment from one of metal's current extreme champions.

Here was an album that was full of low-end riffs, windmill bass drum beats, and deep bellows brought forth by an experienced front man. Amidst the debris, was TTEOTD's "Malice," which amongst the ridiculous efforts made by others, managed to shed light on the growing scene.

This can be traced to a few years ago, and it seems as if 2007 spawned about a new breed of acts that brought upon a new day and reigned partial darkness over metal. It seems as if aggressive music has made its way into a digestible format, seeing as how no matter how extreme the metal can get, or how many bass drops and squealers are found on a particular album, children all across the mall will still be bopping to their iPods with new releases, which is fine (I remember being eight years old when I first got my paws on Pantera's "The Great Southern Trendkill," so who can hate?) yet is still a growing concern. Review Summary: Long overdue new release proves to be worthy of the waitĭespite the passing of times and numerous acts releasing their attempts at what they think face pummeling terrorizing brutality should sound like, kids are still out there in their basements putting together their versions of what they think hardcore should have always been.
