4.0 out of 5 stars Great Swedish Thrash Metal, August 14, 2003

Soilwork's new album 'Figure Number Five' was a major dissapointment, but where they failed, The Defaced shall shine. Theses Swedish metal masterminds (boasting members from Darkane and the aforementioned Soilwork) have crafted some brilliantly heavy thrash metal. With their catchy and heavy metal licks and Swedish roots, this band really stands out when listening to the record. By chosing not to follow the rest of the crowd and rehashing every Swedish metal cliche known to man, it makes 'Karma in Black' a solid metal release. The whole album gets more enjoyable with every listen, often digging up more death inspired roots in the tracks. Highlights include "Once in Between', 'Exit Body on Mass', and 'The Fading Suns'. If Soilwork has gotten a bit stale for your taste and the likes of Omnium Gathering seem a tad too extreme, then satisfy your thirst for Swedish thrash with this great release from a great and promising band.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, August 15, 2003

Maybe I need to listen to this album a few more times to appreciate this band. Being a fan of old Soilwork and Darkane, especially " Chainheart Machine" and " Rusted Angel ", I thought this album would be more speed oriented. Unfortunately there are no fast songs on the entire album. I guess I will give it a few more listens before I come to a final conclusion. To be continued...

If you want to hear some great death/thrash bands pick up new releases by The Forsaken and Dimension Zero.
