Advantages: another album for the collection, He's over the sad love songs. Disadvantages: Not much on my side.
Manson does it again on “high End Of Low”. His brilliantness to phrase and place words still ceases to amaze me. It has little thing similar to the original and I’m not talking “Antichrist Superstar” (for you people who thought that was the beginning) I’m talking “Portrait Of An American Family” and the spooky kids. In my opinion he goes back to the old school with guitar for sound instead of electronic. The album is surprisingly good, all for a ... ...Acoustic songs are good from Marilyn Manson but not love songs. Don’t quite feel it. “Into The Fire”, feel the same way. And “Pretty As A Swastika” wasn’t quite feeling either didn’t quite understand the lyrics.
All and all its still a good album most all the songs were great. “Four-Rusted Horses” interesting song love the county sound. “Leave A Scar” the best chorus on the album. “Ama-goddamn-motherfuckin-Geddon” example of the amazing sound and ...
Advantages: Hard, unconventional rock Disadvantages: An acquired taste
Rap-Metal group Rage Against the Machine released their self-titled debut album in 1992, but the music is just as relevant today as it was back then. Songs like 'Take the Power Back' and 'Freedom' are about individual exploitation by the cultural, social, and political systems in society, and how the people must be willing to rise up and overcome such oppression. You may have also recently heard about the small matter of 'Killing in the Name' beating ... ...when you first listen to Rage is that they mean business. The whole album is intended to provide voice to the silent minority: Those individuals that feel neglected and abused are given hope through the band's resonant, unashamed, confrontational expression. Guitarist Tom Morello's anomalous riffs, rhythmic special effects and extended tapping techniques were some of the most powerful sounds to come from a guitar in that era, and remain unchallenged ...

Lyrics are immense and stick in your head 'So have no fear and dont look back the afterlife awaits' I love that line espesially I dont know why.

Advantages: Unique and Brilliant consistancey of good tracks Disadvantages: Old fashion looking album design
Normally im into Children of Bodom, Slipknot, BFMV and alot more of the screamo bands. But the Avenged Sevefold have a truly unique style, the vocalist is amazing. I bought this album, and loved it. I think the best on the album is The beast and the harlot. I truly love this band and cannot wait until their next tour. The consistancy of the tracks is also very good with tracks like afterlife, bat country, Blinded in chains, MIA and gunslinger deserving ...
Advantages: Original, Interesting Disadvantages: Some song can seem a little similar
This was back before the lead singer Dave Williams died, and they have gone downhill since. This album is very raw and heavy, but was unlike other bands at the same time. The biggest hit from this album was track 2 'Bodies'. This song is very aggressive but also catchy and original. This album doesn't have a single song that i dislike, this may be due to the fact that there is a strong element that is consistent between such as the guitar sounds. ...
