A New Dawn For Gorerotted - 93%

m_sutin, February 25th, 2006

Well this is the 3rd gorerotted cd out now and in my opinion this is the best one. Alot of people say "mutilated in minutes" and "only tools and corpses" are superior releases, but I disagree. In this review I will list why.

First of all the screamer is a different person in "A New Dawn for the Dead". The bass player handles all the screaming and Goreskin does the growls. But let me tell you the grows are super deep and guttural, Also the screams sound improved and better than when mr.gore was in the band. It's great during the cd when they do vocal trade-offs during the chorus' or verses or anything.

This time around it also seems as they have become better musicians. While on the previous 2 cd's the riffs and songs were written good I think the new ones are better. They have more technical riffs now and they still find a way to make EVERY part of the cd catchy. Sometimes I listen to this cd and I don't know what song I'm listening to, but I know how the song goes perfectly. The drumming on the cd is above average too, the drummer does lotsa double bass and blast beats but he is not limited to that, he's really good at drumming. The bass I only actually HEAR a couple times on this album and thats only if I actually listen hard for it, its' like you know it's there but you dont pay attention to it.

The production on this cd was nearly flawless too, the vocals were VERY well produced and weren't put up front and louder than everything else. The guitars and drums were mixed perfectly. My only complaint about the production is bass, I would've liked to hear more of it like in there previous 2 cd's but I think everything else makes up for the lack of bass while listening. I've been a fan of gorerotted for a while now and this really is a great cd, there best even.....with a changed line up and great songs Gorerotted made another classic brutal death cd (at least it's a classic to me, I can't get enough of it)

Buy this cd, I found it cheap for only $14 canadian which is probly like 11 bucks american so go out and buy it, cool cd art too.
