I was blown away when i first listing to the band a perfect murder's "unbroken" because of their sound... It rimends me of the old metallica,pantera,and,hatebreed all blending in together. All the songs are brutal and very much agressive beyond words can truly express. Amazing lirycs,production, sound, and, energy as well as how talent " a perfect murder" realy is with not one weak track to be found, in the whole album. I recommend.

Hatebreed hardcore if you will. The singer has a more aggressive bark and the guitars hit an almost thrash metal speed at times. But the hardcore chuggachugga and stark breakdowns bring this all back into the core pit territory. When A Perfect Murder slows things down to a sludgy crawl, the bass rumbles through with more clarity and the unit strikes with a more forceful impact. When the music speeds up, it's just good hardcore with the metal influence. Lots of that around nowadays. A Perfect Murder make a good dent in the genre by taking the roots of hardcore and bringing in the thrash guitar, the aforementioned sluggish drawn out punch and the slick guitar break (and even the occasional more rock influenced solo). Then dose it with plenty of those pit swirling breakdowns where the whole song pulls itself into one big riff and just pounds through the listener. File as another of those bands that doesn't really bring that much new to the hardcore table, but what they do bring is well done and worth a listen.

Once again, Victory Records has captured another talented hardcore based band with a huge penchant for endlessly precise metallic posing. This Montreal, Canada based band has used the hardcore aggression as the groundwork for an album that specialized in the chug and thunder of metal. Paying special attention to the detailed nature of metal, A PERFECT MURDER gives you everything you want in a metal album laced with uncovered riffs, especially poignant leads and the always fitting heavy handed baselines. They have the deep tone of CROWBAR with the accuracy of PANTARA and just a touch of thrash that round out a tremendous overall sound. Before the insurgence of labeling everything with a genre specific tag, there was just metal; this is exactly what this record was-metal. And it kicked some serious ass. Three tracks in particular stood out of an already great record. They were "Possessed", "No Trace" and "Die With Regret." They represented all the astounding qualities of a band that is sure to generate a respectful fan base in the coming year.

I love people who claim bands have "no talent"; so that means these people can play better?

As an audio-freak I crave great produced albums - there is nothing like heavy hitting metal when they sound clear when played loud!! I once believed no metal band sounded as thick and punchy as Pantera (i.e. Far Beyond & Southern Trend) however I JUST found this album. NOTHING gets me more pumped before going to the gym than this album. This music fills my veins with rage - who the hell needs coffee with this kind of anger! Props to the quality of sound and the music as a whole. APM simply ROCKS!

Pretty good work from Drummondville, Quebec A Perfect Murder. The highlight on this album is really Time Bomb. You should take a look at their other releases such as the Blood Covered Word EP (with a different singer) on Cyclop Media and Cease To Suffer on Goodfellow records.

Unbroken is really good but not as good as Cease To Suffer is but you should get both!

This was an aweosme cd. I got this cd the first day it came out. Being a HUGE fan of victory records, i knew this cd would be a winner. I listened to it and liked it alot. This cd is a must for any hatebreed or pantera fan out there. Songs sound a little similar to each other but still a very good cd. fav. track is no pulse in my veins just because of the fact that I am a huge fan of instrumentals. GIVE THIS CD A LISTEN!!

I had heard a couple of short clips of them over the net and I thought they sounded pretty promising. I went out and bought this album and I was disappointed. At times the music makes no sense at all. It goes from fairly heavy riffage to like an 80's hair band feel. That's what I got out of this album, it's not worth buying...

bad band, bad music, these guys obviosuly have NO TALENT. not original at all.
