I have been a fan of this band since their first album REVELATIONS OF THE UNSUNG. As their second album EMBRACE THE GUTTER was an improvment to their first, FEAR WILL CAST NO SHADOW is even better. The new album is better in every way, but most noticably in the vocal department, with the addition of new vocalist, Matt McCuesney. With an album this good I would think that these guys are off to greater heights in the metal ranks, but as is, they seem to be flying under the radar. Discover what I already know, these guys are great! FEAR WILL CAST NO SHADOW will occupy a spot on my top ten list for best albums of the 2007. If you are a fan of Killswitch Engage, Trivium (before The Crusade), Soilwork, or any other brutal but melodic band, this should hit the spot. Do AUTUMN OFFERING and yourself a favor, buy this album!

I was extremely surprised when I heard the song From Atrophy to Obsession from the CD, Fear Will Cast No Shadow...
I immediately went and bought the CD...
I was left speechless after listening to Fear Will Cast No Shadow...
I can't believe I waited so long to buy this CD
Best late release of 2007...
The Autumn Offering are very talented and offer a very good mix of thrash and death metal (more thrash than death and some melody!!!)...
If you like fast paced metal with "gut wrenching" guitar solos; Fear Will Cast No Shadow is for you...
But let me warn you...the vocals of some of the songs are still very dark (death metal like). That's the only thing that could turn away some metal fans.
I've never liked death metal, but musically Fear Will Cast No Shadow is one of the best METAL releases in years. These guys are true musicians and the mixed of death, thrash and contemporary vocals should not be turned away by true metal fans, and to me...should be considered revolutionary...
Plus the music is almost perfect...Just give it a shot...

Autumn Offering is a Great Band with big Potential. The new CD is Very Good. I didn't rate it at a 5, because it has a couple songs that are (More headed towards Mainstream or Non_Screaming) These guys sound better with the scream. Leave the soft stuff out Autumn Offering. Some bands get away with it, but this is one band who doesn't pull it off. (Not yet at least)

I really look forward to Future Cd's of these guys. They carry a lot of energy and the songs just JAM! If you like Hard Rock, give this CD a chance at least
