Don't Let the Christian-Thing Turn You Off,
By monkeyboy (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Ancient of Days (Audio CD)
This album was recommended to me by a fellow metalcore lovin' buddy of mine and I can honestly say that I was well impressed. The solos are melodic yet aggressive, the vocals are brutal without reverting to silly gutteral grunts, and the song structures overall are varied and twist and turn with a pleasing intensity. To be honest, anything 'christian' usually makes me run a mile...but that part of Thy Will Be Done passed by me completely. The song titles...and the band's name is giveaway, but the religious views of the band are pretty much unobtrusive. All in all this is a thouroughly enjoyable listen. It doesn't necessarily break any new ground or set the world alight, but there's some great stuff here.

can you imagine Lamb of God as a Christian band?,

I have been down the metalcore trail alot and the deathcore trail a little bit, and one listen to this band tells me that it is a deathcore band with a twist of doom. from the looks of the song titles, this is a Christian band too. the lead guitarist, Chris Drapeau, has some awesome guitar solos, and it makes you wonder if he listens to Testament and other thrash bands. there is a bit of Lamb of God influence also in song no. 3 "New World Idolatry" as well as a whole gang shouting the chorus line. while listening to this, imagine that Lamb of God has converted to Christianity. I hope this band gets some massive exposure, but still stays underground. this is the 6th deathcore band I have tried so far. I recommend this if you like Whitechapel, Job For A Cowboy, Oceano, The Great Commission, Earth From Above, and In The Midst Of Lions, and other deathcore bands.

This band is pretty good. They remind me of bands like pantera, lamb of god, devildriver, and maybe some "death" metal thrown in. However, unlike most of those bands they are supposedly Christian. In some songs you can def. tell. The title track "until the ancient of days" quotes the Bible I recall at least once about trying to reach a universal transformation and the renewing of our minds. Other songs like "solemn oath" harken back to pantera with the chorus (Imo) while the rest of the album pretty much never let's up. It slows down a little here and there but if you're looking for clean vocals (ala kill switch engage) you won't find any here. This is heavy stuff.
