Debauchery - Continue To Kill


Damn this album is awesome, death metal (although according to the all knowing Wikipedia, it can also be considered as Death 'n' Roll, which I suppose it could, but I would stick with death metal) at its best. The songs have the grooviest riffs EVER, the vocals are REALLY good (very similar to Six Feet Under vocals), awesome choruses, and some damn good guitar solos. The albums solid the whole way through, it just never stops getting awesome. This album along with Aborted's new album have now given me a new found love for the more brutal side of death metal, that's just how good it is. It's one of those albums where once you start listening to one of the songs, you just CAN'T STOP. I even find the intro amazing.

A funny thing about the album is that Debauchery have received a lot of criticism in the time that they've been around, people claiming them to being "boring" and "too similar to Six Feet Under"(its neither of these) and the beginning of the song "King Of Killing" takes the piss out of that, and is just an amazing intro, unfortunately the rest of the song isn't great. The down side is that I do see where they are coming from when they say that they're "boring" they can get VERY repetitive lyrics at some points which can get annoying. Their lyrics, as you may of guessed by the bands name, the albums name, and their genres name, are about killing. They don't have hugely gory lyrics, which is good as I'm not a fan of that, though they do talk about killing like....EVERYONE, but it doesn't really go into much detail about how their going to do that. Well that's if you compare them to Cannibal Corpse anyway it gets to "I will stitch your anus together So you will drown in your own shit" and not much gorier.

I am going to give this album 5/5 stars, which it JUST managed, the repetitiveness does let it down a bit. but still, this has definitely managed to be one of the best albums ever. so obviously yes, even if you're not a fan of death metal, its still definitely worth getting. unless of course you're a nu metal fag or some thing
