4.5 stars. The production is great, the musicianship is refreshingly vital, and the songwriting is excellent. Even the EP "Love n Death" is exceptional, which is unusual considering that most EPs never reach the level of the main album. There are many sound samples laced throughout the album adding an epic grandeur to the overall feel. The lead and rhythm guitars shine on this CD, so if you like melodic/intricate guitar with variation in tempo, this is the CD for you. If you love great guitar, buy this album now!

5.0 out of 5 stars THEIR MILESTONE, AND ONE OF THE BEST METAL/DEATH ALBUM BY FAR, July 5, 2006

By 

Andrea Moretti "Lula" (Italy) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Amok/Love and Death (Audio CD)

This is one of those albums who would need a push forward! The band's milestone by far...but that's not all! AMOK deserves more space among the best metal/death album ever. Put it on your player and let it flow into your ears and brain..."The War Ain't Over!" is one of the best opener in metal music. It's so classically metal and then, all of a sudden, Taneli Jarva breaks in with his growling/melodical vocals. His lines and interpretation really give strenght to the songs! Of course his not a hell of a singer, definitely not in Dickinson, Tate or Kiske vein...but at the same time not as rough as Cavalera and C. His style's more into "deep vocals" but 100% understandable and most of all you can feel he's singing with passion! Music is never too fast, I mean is more heavy than death metal, but very powerfull anyway! PHENIX, FOREVER LOST and NEPENTHE just to name the best songs...but the whole albums just flow away and you would need more and more...Unfortunately Sentenced decided for a line-up change for the up-coming recordings and in "Down" there's no Jarva anymore as their former drummer was put in front of the mike!!! "Down" is a very good album...but just the biginning of the end in my opinion (Mr.Ranta cannot sing...)...you want more Sentenced material...look for "Love & Death" pals!
As far as I'm concerned the band does not exist anymore...what a lost for metal music!

3.0 out of 5 stars Sentenced - 'Amok' (Century Media) 3 1/2 stars, May 12, 2005

'Amok' is the Scandinavian metal band's third effort.Their music had reportedly undergone some changes,because on 'Amok',they appear to be straight ahead rock&roll.Which,in this case is a good thing.Cuts like "The War Ain't Over","Forever Lost","Dance On The Graves" and "Golden Stream" show you what these guys are fully capable of.The playing and song arrangements are actually quite decent.Might appeal to fans of Hammerfall,Children Of Bodom,Nevermore and maybe Iced Earth.
