Vocally, Randy is strong and creative with his delivery and lyrical ability. Every song showcases interesting guitar riffs and solid (for the most part very impressive) drumming. It isn't a particularly long album (clocking in at just under 40 minutes) but it has good replay value. My favorite section of the track would have to be the ride bell hits - timed to perfection and such a small yet brilliant way to create space within the track.Īll in all, every track on As the Palaces Burn is good. This track is slightly slower in pace (focusing more on groove). Another album highlight comes in the form of A Devil In God's Country. The album continues with a melting pot of complex rhythms (both on the drums and the guitars) and ferocious vocals. Touches of melody are present on the track, another notable difference from their debut. The bass is audible but uninteresting for the most part, choosing to follow the guitars rather than branch out in any creative aspect.Īlbum highlights include the brilliant 11th Hour, which features some superbly well written riffs and well penned lyrics from Randy. Double bass patterns are superb and his choice of fills can be remarkable at times (Ruin contains a particularly brilliant fill). In terms of the drumming, Chris Adler is known to be very adept. The guitar work is of a very good standard - riffs are well written, heavy and catchy. Randy's vocals sound fierce as he switches between his somewhat decipherable lows and screeching highs.

Right from the opening track, the band showcase a level of tightness and technicality not previously shown on New American Gospel - riffs are undoubtedly more technical in comparison and the production values are a lot better (everything sounds clearer and sharper). This, their sophomore effort, helped to further develop the band's style first shown on debut New American Gospel. Their brand of groovy death metal combined with technical elements has earned them a favorable reputation amongst metalheads all over the world. Lamb of God have become a household name over the past few years or so, producing a solid number of albums and live recordings along the way. As the Palaces Burn is a solid album from start to finish. Review Summary: A sophomore effort from an established act that shows consistency, technical prowess and great production values.
