This disc starts off with a short, grindy song that lets you know these guys have upped the
brutality ante on this sophomore effort. Whereas "Chaos Complete" followed a more traditional
Swedish melodic thrash/death route this new one has way more blast beats, more
straightforward death metal beats and a generally harsher, more coarse sound to the songs.

That's not to say it's totally bereft of their previously more melodic sound. There's some catchy
lead work sprinkled in a lot of the songs but it's not the dominant riff of a song like it was in the
past. This tends to make the songs a little less distinctive with some songs even approaching
generic death metal but they're still played extremely well. Depending on your preference this
could be good or bad news. If you like the more traditional death sounding thrash bands like The
Crown you'll probably like this record more. If you like the more melodic death thrash bands like
Callenish Circle or Light This City you'll probably like their first record better. As for my two cents, I
think they had a pretty good take on the melodic sound, especially with some of the more death
metal like material here being less attention grabbing.

There's also the ubiquitous overly long slow "supposed to be scary" song which they thankfully
skipped last record but it shows up here in spades. It's only salvation is a really catchy chorus
and a nice thrashy breakdown mid song so I don't find myself hitting the skip button.

On the whole this record doesn't grab me like their first one did. There's some quality cuts on
here to be sure but the first record was solid from start to finish with a more distinctive
songwriting approach. On "9th Order Extinct" the blast beats and sheer speed make many of the
songs sound too similar to make this a standout record.

Incapacity sounds alot like Entombed. now there are three death metal bands that use buzzsaw riffs that Entombed made famous. like Dismember and Fleshcrawl, Incapacity also sounds like Entombed with George Fisher of Cannibal Corpse on vocals. what else is going to crawl out of the woodwork these days sounding like Entombed?

i bought this cd used and it was the best 8.00 that i have spent on a cd in a long time, id actually never even heard of them until i saw it in the used cd section, i like bands like nile, origin, carcass, mindrot, s.f.u, and borknagar, aurora borealis. incapacity is not a ground breaking band just good hard heavy metal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh my god killer death metal of 2004 if u like death buy it
