The beat and rythym are constant, with no variety, changes or anything throughout every song. The vocals are subpar to say the least; growling, while carrying a distinctive sound... should also be able to have some pitch.

To sum it up... if you want constant and repeating sounds across one cd... then this is the cd for you. However, if you want a bit of variety within the tracks of a cd, "better options are available."

i.e.

Soul Embraced
The Devil Wears Prada
Virgin Black
Suicide Silence
Job For A Cowboy
etc.

after reading a few reviews off amazon i had to make my own review because i feel like all the other reviews are not going to top mine because i feel like people don't understand what impending doom is really about the whole band believes in god so you can't go wrong there and i have meet the band more than once and honestly this to me is more than death metal it's everybody's way to god you have to read the lyrics if your against god why are you wasting your time because your not getting nothing out of this cd unless you love god

I ran onto tis by chance while browsing cds in a local store. It looked interesting so I researched it a little and like what I heard. I've recently been getting into a lot of hardcore and grindcore/death stuff and I like my music with positive meaningful lyrics. This was just what the Dr ordered. The guitards are well produced but still good and dirty and the overall sound is quite heavy. Nice timing switchups through out and not your typical riffs. Lots of speed with some breakdowns thrown in for good measure. I personally love the vocals. Very difficult to understand without following a lyric sheet but well worth the effort to follow along. Powerful Christ centered lyrics that delare "We are the sons of a liveing Majesty!" with guts and pride.

If your into dark sounding heavy music with just the right amount of chaos thrown in but prefer something more, lyrically, in regards to intelligent meaningful ideas that stand for something worth standing for, pick this up!

Impending Doom is awesome. where was this band when I started listening to death metal?? how can I describe the sound? they sound like a meeting between Krisiun and Morbid Angel and the two bands became Christian. this band is the most brutal band I laid my ears on? can Christian metal get any more brutal? the intro song "Left Behind" only prepares you for an unprecedented onslaught. this band SHOULD be in your collection.

A picture of guys with death metal t-shirts on the back cover, and OOOOH, one guy is even trying to put on that evil SNEER! OOOOH, SCARY! So the metal fan buys it and then is pummelled with a "new message". But it's a boring message, and the music doesn't back it up.
MUSICALLY, this band cops some of the chops others have invented in this style of music, but really isn't very creative. They don't bring anything new to the genre, except "different" lyrics. So it ends up sounding trite and repetitive. And gosh, the lyrics aren't even interesting, but more of the samey stuff that's been sold in churches for centuries. Really, if they were good, they would get a good review. They're just formulaic. I thought I wasted my money.

I am not a grindcore fan at all.
But this album blows me away.

The singer uses pig squeals often. But the tone of his voice is just so great. I can't help but be impressed. And thier guitar work is more creative and technical than regular sloppy grind guitar. And they have breakdowns. But not just your any old, come-by-chance, everyday breakdowns. These breakdown make you want to throw down no matter where you are.

Suggested songs are "Condemned", "Feeding The Decomposing" and "Nailed. Dead. Risen."

For fan's of "The Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza", "Acacia Strain", "For Today" and "Jesus Christ"

This is one of those albums that comes out of nowhere and really knocks the breath out of you. I'm a huge fan of ID (I listen to all of their albums nearly obsessively) and I love how this album represents a totally different side of the band's considerable talent. Very little hardcore makes it's way onto the record and the little that does manifests itself into the three or four MOST BRUTAL breakdowns you've ever heard. The bulk of this album is straight, face melting death metal that includes grunts, growls squeals, blastbeat drumming and intensely dissonant guitar riffs.

Best death metal album of all time? Arguably, yes. I've got to hand it to ID for being the heaviest band in their genre (Christian Metal) and still taking pains to write artistically rewarding music. Praise God for these guys!

This is the second Impending Doom album I bought, though I'd heard songs from it on myspace and such, I still was stunned by this album, it is amazing. Very heavy, and very strong Chritian message. If you like grind, or death metal, I suggest check this out.

Nailed. Dead. Risen. is a pretty good album. its heavy, fast, holy, gore, etc. although a lot of songs sound the same. this album could've been better.

I bought this album about half a year ago and it never gets old. Impending Doom is brutality in d-minor. The first time I listened to this album it blew my mind and it took some time to get used to the vocals. This album is aural terrorism from start to finish. If you like God fearing Death Metal bands, this is a must own. It will "...scare the hell out of you...".
