Label: Roadrunner Records

Release date: 08/08/2005
Date of purchase: 10/20/2005

Personal rating: 4/5

My sum:
At the beginning I wasn't sure about purchasing a CD of Chimaira, because it is no secret that they do pretty hard music. But on the other hand I have just listened to some masterpieces of them such as "Down Again" or "Army Of Me" which was on the Freddy vs. Jason Soundtrack. So I pre-listened twice to the CD in store. But then I found that double disc special edition for the same price as the regular version with the 1st CD only that contains the new album. And as I knew I couldn't do much wrong anyway by buying a CD of a band that is under contract at Roadrunner Records! And this album starts great. But later many songs sound similar with not much variation, just hard. However on the 2nd disc there are 7 live tracks of the best Chimaira songs, which makes the powerful bonus disc with over 40 minutes play-time even better than the new album itself on disc 1. The live tracks are taken from the actual Chimaira DVD "The Dehumanizing Process" that was recorded at a concert in Holland in 2003. So of course the scene where the frontleader, also known as "Metal Moses", parts the crowd right in half just to let them crash together again like the waves of the red sea, doesn't miss.
Because of that great musical experience by listening to the bonus CD I have no bad conscience by giving the album 4 of 5 stars, although the new album itself needs some time to convince. Hopefully I will be able to see the band performing live some day, maybe already at the next "Rock am Ring", Germany.
