5.0 out of 5 stars this kicks butt!, October 11, 2006

this disc is excellent! this band knows what it is doing when it comes to rocking. they tend to slow down a bit on song # 6, but they really make up for it with the rest of the album. one cool thing about Jungle Rot is that they stand out from the pack. their music sounds like they're mixing death metal, thrash metal and groove metal together, but they still stomp. I wasn't disappointed with this disc and I hope to hear more from these guys in the future.

This is another great release from the Jungle Rot.

As noted elsewhere, these guy from Illinois play mid-paced death metal, with its typical growling vo-kills with brutal war-themed lyrics.

If this sounds interesting - buy this album. The Rot doesn't disappoint!

3.0 out of 5 stars Reviewing Jungle Rot's War Zone in the style of Clint Eastwood, January 22, 2007

The Good

Does not feature "A+" death metal vocals, but overall vocals are clear and easily decipherable.

Good Riffs.

Songs about war and death are always good in my book, especially when the lyrics aren't generic and boring.

Since the band got screwed out of a 2006 U.S. tour for the album, they'll be releasing another album sometime early this year.

The Bad

Not enough Double Bass. The Double Bass is there, but there are frequent moments where I think it should be there when it isn't. More often though I find myself thinking that it should be going faster.

The Ugly

Not a single guitar solo. This album is a good example of why guitar solos are important in death metal because there isn't a single one of them. As a result the album just seems to chug along without anything particularly impressive. What we have is good, but nothing to write home about. The album being only about 30 minutes is a reasonable length for it, as it doesn't wear out its welcome.

Jungle Rot is good for the occasional listen but they desperately need to start adding solos to their music. I can't say that I love the band, but I do like their music a bit. They have a formula that works for them, but they need to add more ingredients to it to work successfully.
