Don't Buy This.......2007-03-16

"Cease to Suffer" & "Unbroken" did sound like Hatebreed. Not too original, but I enjoyed them. When I bought "Strenth thru Vengance" I wasn't aware of the line up change. It was awful. If I could give it less than 1 star, I would. I'd love to get a hold of thier f@&&ot singer & punch him in the throat so that no one else would ever have to hear his voice again.

P.S. APM, the Army hates you. You will never have any cred. in the Hardcore or Metal scene. Shoot yourself in the face for me.

HORRIBLE! wow...I bought this after hearing "Body and Blood" thinking "yeah it's a little bit of a Phil anselmo rip off" and I was OK with that, seeing that Pantera are my favorite band. I think this albums biggest downfall is the singers attempts at clean vocals, he sounds like he's constipated. The music gets boring after a while if you can even see past the horrendous vocals to get that far. Download "Body and Blood" it's the only stand-out track. Next please!

Poor Man's Pantera.......2006-08-03

This is not a bad metal album. It's heavy, it's got great double bass drumming, some good guitar work, and the singer is also pretty good. The only problem for me, is that I am Pantera fan right to the core. When I listen to this album, every time I hear a cool riff, or a good solo, I think, Pantera could have done that much better. The singing is almost exactly like Phil Anselmo, minus his ability to right good lyrics. So If you just wanna hear something super heavy, than this is a descent album. However, if you are not a Pantera fan (for some reason), you probably won't be a fan of this record. And if you are a Pantera fan, than go listen to one of their albums, because they are all better than this one. And if you happen to be looking specificaly for something that sounds like Pantera, than go get the new Lamb of god album when it comes out in late August.

A Perfect Rip Off.......2006-07-31

If there was never a band named Pantera than this CD would be really good. Unfortunately we have heard these riffs before and those vocals could be Phil's long lost tapes. Obviously the lead guitarist is no DIME but the riffs are way to close to Pantera's. These guys should just change their name to Cowboys from Hell and become a Pantera cover band. Overall I like the CD, but when you listen to it you kind of feel cheated like Pantera was having an off day. I mean all the elements are there but it still seems fake or watered down. So if your young or have been living under a rock and have never heard of Pantera then you will enjoy this cd. If not, I would probably say pass on this one and go buy the Pantera catalogue of cd's instead. You'll be much happier!!!!

(3.5 stars) Two ways to view this album.......2006-02-03

When rating A Perfect Murder's new album, the group's third full length release, it was quite difficult to find the correct number of stars. There are really two opinions you could have about this album; you can either think it's quite an enjoyable listen which satisfies your heavy metal thirsts, or you could think that this band is seriously lacking a sound of their own. I am somewhere in between. It does lose some points for originality-the album title ("Strength Through Vengeance") sounds like it could have come straight out of an old Pantera notepad; and the real lack of innovation, here, is due to the vocal style. Newfound band member Kevin Randel is obviously a true, very angry and hate-filled metalhead, and he makes for quite a powerful vocalist. But, unfortunately, he has clearly listened to a lot of Pantera/Down/Superjoint Ritual, because his throat straining yells (and even his supple growls) almost always sound like Phil Anselmo ("Body and Blood" could easily be a continuation of Pantera's 1994 single, "I'm Broken"). But that is my only real complaint, because the rest of the members of A Perfect Murder don't usually echo Pantera. Plus, "Strength Through Vengeance" sounds just fine, and it should satisfy most metalheads. The title track is a maelstrom of blowtorch riffs, pounding drums, howling vocals, and a couple of careening guitar solos. Later on, track four, "Snake Eyes," is backed by fast, churning riffs and insistent double bass drumming; "Path of Resistence" is a pounding rhythm; "Rotten I" has a salvo of blistering, machine gun riffs; and "Suffocation of Thought" has three wailing solos. Track ten, which is a somewhat soft instrumental entitled "Time Changes Nothing," breaks up the album's monotony and is the only song to bring any type of melody into the mix. So, it's up to you to decide if this album is a loving tribute from A Perfect Murder to Phil Anselmo and company, or if APM are just lacking their own sound and innovation. It may be because Pantera is one of my favorite bands, but I believe that no matter which opinion you have, "Strength Through Vengeance" makes for quite a satisfying listen. And besides, if Throwdown can get away with being a Pantera rip off, why can't these guys?
