New CDs

[Ninjavenom]

I just picked up a few new cds the other day.

Jag Panzer - Mechanized Warfare - Power Metal
Nasum - Human 2.0 - Grindcore/ Thrashcore?
Dillinger Escape Plan - Calculating Infinity - Grindcore/ Screamo

The nasum album was the best of the batch this time. I really enjoy everything on the album, especially Mass Hypnosis, Detonator, Sixteen, and Defragmentation. There's lots of tight grooves in the background, keeping this album from being just flat-out noise. Jag Panzer is one of my favorite power metal bands out there, and Mechanized Warfare is very good. The tracks Frozen in Fear and Cold is the Blade are two of my favorites. I've got them on my list to get another album, preferably an older one. This wasn't on the top of my list (under Candlemass, The Locust, and Ringworm, actually), but since my local record store decided to be gay and not have any of the three aforementioned, i decided to look for something that they had to have, and i admit that i am not disappointed. DEP's Calculating Infinity is totally sweet as well, with The Running Board, *#..., and 43% Burnt topping the list. Once again the store didn't have any older albums, so i was stuck with the new one. I think this was a good group of choices this time, i was not letdown by any of them. I suspect anyone who hasn't already should check these out.
