5.0 out of 5 stars This is the way to go, May 26, 1999

By A Customer

Napalm Death is a traditional thrashing, lashing death metal band. The songs on their other CDs almost sounded one-dimensional and repetitive. The songs sounded as if they had spent 5 minutes on them, the writers not taking their time, totally tearing in each song. But with this CD, I am VERY impressed. The songs are fresh and although not as thrashing and lashing, they still have the same hard-hitting sound that makes you wanna bang your head. And if you thought this was Napalm Death planting their tombstone, think again.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Clever Bunch, May 19, 1999

By A Customer

These guys continue to amaze. Just when you think the band maybe washed up and done with, they come out with a real gem. The recording sounds phenomenal! Crisp in your face blows with heavy bass. But whats incredible is they continue to write good material. One song after another. To blast this on an excellent sound system is truly amazing. This is their best release in a while (in my opinion). Clearly haven't lost a step. They continue to own a percentage in the underworld!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Oww, my neck hurts..., March 23, 2002

...because I was just playing this album in my car and involuntarily banging my head until it nearly flew off. If you're looking for a band that plays uncompromising, unrelenting metal simply because they feel like it, you can't do any better than Napalm Death. In a grindcore genre too often defined by gross-out vocals, one-note guitars, and all-too-brief songs, Napalm have crafted a superb technical statment. Yeah, the songs on "Words..." are all pretty much the same, but the level of creativity and musicianship here on display more than makes up for any deficiency in the diversity department. Every song on this album boasts an absolutely crushing groove, and the mix of Barney Greenway's leather lungs and the technicality of the music is mind-blowing. There is not even one second of filler on "Words From the Exit Wound;" hell, it's worth checking out even if only for the title.
