(review) No Fun At All – Seventh Wave (SBÄM Records)

Swedish punk rock legends No Fun At All are back with their seventh full length opus, first one in four years. It is long awaited and contains 12 songs. What to say? This one has old school NFAA vibe, but also what surprised me is a new hardcore aggression and energy that stems from the songwriting on this record. I was surprised with Tear Me Down, song that hits in the head with hardcore raw energy, combined with Ingemar´s melodic singing and gang sing along backing vocals. Every Single Screen and See The Splendor are more old school melodic punk No Fun At All songs, with strong main melody, cutting guitar work and anthemic choruses for you to hum and sing along to. Another song that stands out is Smart You Out, mid tempo punk anthem about unrestricted freedom. Also, Wonderland is a bit Bad Religion influenced song, especially in the second half of the song. Dead And Gone is sure going to be concert favorite for many of us, I think this is a sure hit. Of all the songs it is really hard to choose highlights and favorites, but I have tried, so those above are mine. You listen to this new opus of this legends and catch them play live somewhere, I saw them live twice and their show is awesome.

(review) Arch Enemy – Deceivers (Century Media Records)

Here we are, album number twelve of Arch Enemy. I will say a blasphemy now in the eyes of many fans, but for me personally, last three albums are the best that this band made in their career. That are the three albums with Alissa White-Gluz on vocals. Her arrival brought new energy to the band, new versatility in vocals and melodies, also new aggression and brutality. Not to sad Angela Gossow was bad, quite opposite, but I love the last three records. This one offers 11 songs and I am at hardship to choose which one I like more. It took listening for like three times to decide, so I will do it like that: Handshake With Hell-awesome straightforward aggressive death thrash anthem with superb clean vocal middle parts, courtesy of little demon Alissa. In The Eye Of The Storm kicks ass with mid tempo, heavy song which adds to epic anthemic chorus and great lyrics. Poisoned Arrow-the song with contagious and such wicked little guitar melody that it stays in your ears to hum all day. There is also one short but epic instrumental called Mourning Star in which all splendid musicianship of this veteran band comes to forefront. One Last Time is melancholy, mid tempo anthem with story how to rise up and live on and I love this perfection of a song. Not to discover just everything, check this one out. One of the best records to come out this year.
