Another nightshift being whipped by the unrelenting machine, pushing cups of coffee down my engorged gullet and throwing some grooves into the blackness.
Whilst never having heard Atheist before I didn't have any expectations. If anything I had my doubts seeing the band has been peddling its wares since the mid 80's and this is their first album in 17 years. I reached out, turned my metal horns to the sky and prayed it wasn't some geriatric power metalers hiding behind a very cool album cover.
Not to be. The album starts off with a blistering pace and with a bucket of shit in hand, the band throws everything at you. Spiraling riffs and tempo changes. Countless solos and sick twists. I expect in comparison to their previous efforts the production its a very polished sound and to some this may be a downfall that the band has climbed out of the dungeon. Overall a great album.
