3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as previous albums, February 21, 2003

By

This review is from: Down (Audio CD)

This album marked a yet another transition in Sentenced career with the departure of singer / bassist Taneli Jarva and the introduction of new vocalist Ville.

The vocals are in a rough James Hetfield style that may broaden appeal to traditional rock / metal fans. Musicaly speaking, songs have been greatly simplified in a verse-chorus rock format and use a similar formula. The pace is fast and reminiscent of Ride The Lightning era Metallica. This album is nowhere near Amok & the Love & Death EP - mainly because it falls into generic metal or dark rock.

This is still a decent album and a fun listen. Highlights are: Noose, bleed, crumbling down, 0132, I'll throw the first rock.

5.0 out of 5 stars Down, July 14, 2000

There's really nothing I can say about this CD that hasn't already been said! I loved it! The new Sentenced are excellent! I really enjoyed the female vocals on this CD! The only problem that I had with this CD is that Ville's vocals weren't turned up enough. He is presented as very quiet and a lot of the harmonies would be better if you didn't have to strain to hear them! Also, it is a little difficult to hear what he's yelling about! The mixing on Crimson and Frozen are much better! This is a must for Sentenced fans old and new! I used to like their earlier stuff a lot, but then I grew out of that Death Metal phase! Five years later, I heard Crimson, found out that they've had a new vocalist for the last three albums, and then I went out and bought those ones! These guys are great if you like that brutal and blunt style of metal!
