Review Flash
METAL ALLEGIANCE is some sort of super band, but the members rather call it collective because it consists of past and present members of MEGADETH, TESTAMENT, DREAM THEATER, LAMB OF GOD, SLAYER, EXODUS, MASTODON, PANTERA, TRIVIUM, KINGS X, HATEBREED, SEPULTURA, MACHINE HEAD, ANTHRAX, LACUNA COIL, THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, PERIPHERY, DEATH ANGEL, JUDAS PRIEST, ICED EARTH, and ARCH ENEMY. Live incarnations of METAL ALLEGIANCE have seen guest appearances from Geezer Butler (BLACK SABBATH), Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee (MOTÖRHEAD), Wolfgang Van Halen (VAN HALEN), Steve Vai and Billy Sheehan. Although nothing on this record sounds soft, there is a great melodic curve about the most of the material, ‘Scars’ and ‘Nowhere’ are songs that get you hooked from the start.
Conclusion: This is a record for everyone because there is something for any kind of fan, from Randy Blythe’s (LAMB OF GOD) vocals to the sweet sound of Christina Scabbia’s (LACUNA COIL) voice, just check it out.
Rating: 7 / 10
