Why would you only review albums you like? That ruins the whole point of reviewing anything. The point of a review isn't to try to convince people to buy something one way or the other, it's to present an informed critique of something that could be good, could be bad. Of course personal feelings will dictate the direction of the review, but that's why you don't just go by a review, right? Reviews only serve to set expectations. Obviously Nick liked the album, as do you. And there are a bunch of people that don't. There's nothing wrong with any of them. And the ones that don't like the album are just as qualified to express their opinion as the ones that do. I'm sorry that offends you, but that's something you're going to have to eventually get used to. As for LOG not changing anything on this album, I think that's the point. It's not that people don't like the screaming on this album, they don't like the screaming on any album. Personally, I had to be in the proper mood to really enjoy this disc. Other days I probably won't. It's an acquired taste. It's not easily digestible, even as far as metal goes. And I think that's a valid criticism. If the band had cleaner vocals, they'd be a lot better received. They don't. So there you go.

It isn't a new thing for them to scream in every song. I have been a fan of there first cd NAG and i listened to there first 3 cds quite a bit and really think they are sticking to their roots in this new album. which is a great thing in my opinion. so in closing i would like to say if you have a problem with them screaming you are prob not a fan and never were so maybe you should stick to reviewing cds you are fans of so it doesnt sway the opinion of a real LOG fan. 9/10 OK all you haters talking about it’s just screaming need to realize it’s LAMB OF GOD!!!!!

Screaming through every one of your songs is going to damage them i don't care how amazing your vocals are it will eventually damage them.

I guess that kind of thing can be polished and worked on over time though. I recently started listening to log its kind of difficult to listen to the vocals I agree on that.

There was an instructional DVD that came out a couple years ago with the coach Randy uses, actually. About the CD: This is really the first LoG CD I've gotten interested in--I've streamed it from MySpace probably 4 or 5 times. I tried going back and listening to Sacrament and it didn't do anything for me, but maybe it was the overzealous polish...maybe I'll have to go back and check out the early ones. @worsttofirst04: it’s really just about how you do it, they work with a vocal coach so as not to injure themselves.

The yelling doesn't bother me, but after listening to 10 or so tracks of pure yelling i feel it gets a little old, and makes a lot of the songs mush together in my opinion. i guess it's because there is only so much you can do to switch the pitch of yelling. one thing i am certain of with this record though... it's hard as hell Lamb of God is a great band in my opinion. but i do feel the vocals get a bit repetitive from song to song.
