Dismember needs no introduction, if you have never heard of them, you have just turned into a metal fan, or you have been on planet Pluto for the past 15 years. The new record could easily havey been the follow up to their 1991 album: 'Like an Ever Flowing Stream'. And that my friends is a compliment. With an excellent sound the band serves us a combination of Entombed (Left Hand Path), early Unleashed, Edge of Sanity and themselves.

"Death Conquers All" starts fast with Swedish grooving riffs combined with a Kerry King kind of solo. In "Under a Blood Red Sky" we hear their love for Iron Maiden in the twin lead guitars. "The Hills have Eyes" is a real old school song. "Combat Fatigue" starts with some Pestilence-like riffs, after which the band puts on the breaks in a kind of doom-tempo song called "No Honor in Death". The record ends with "Black Sun", a song in Entombed-style in their 'Left Hand Path' days.

If you still get crazy hearing album titles such as 'Unorthodox', 'Like an Ever Flowing Stream', 'Left Hand Path' and 'Where no Life Dwells', you should stop reading and get to your local record shop to buy this album.
