Deflorate

Still a great album and these guys are and will always be legends. Necropolis is such a good track and a hilarious music video

I didn't really know what to think when I purchased Deflorate and be quite honest I was a little nervous. Whenever bands get a new guitarist the band usually changes its sound completely and it's never the same. So, is not the case with Deflorate. Ryan Knight (from Arsis) is a welcomed addition to the band in every way possible. He really stepped up the solo's in precession and technicality all while not taking away from the reoccurring theme of John's solo's Ryan really bridged the gap to still make the music flow. The new songs might take a little getting used to but all in all the music is still brutal and amazing. Trevor has also reached a new high on this album as his screaming and guttural grows get better as does his lyrics and his timing. Shannon's drumming however is not what I would thought it would be it terms of complexity but it still gets the job done. I would say that overall this album is not lacking it's still fast paced and a good addition to their catalogue of music. This CD isn't Nocturnal nor should it be but it definitely stands on it's own and will be welcomed addition to your music collection. Pick this album and you won't be disappointed.

This is thought to be one of the weaker albums from The Black Dahlia Murder based on most reviews and fan comments I've read but I disagree and was pleasantly surprised. This was a transition album for the band after changing guitar players and I think the change in the bands sound caught some people off guard but when you hear the follow up to this album, Ritual, you can tell where the band's sound has evolved. By they time Ritual came out the band had gone from having many similar sounding songs on an album to each song having its own distinct sound and a clearer melody in each song. The new album, Everblack, comes out next month and I'm hopeful that it's as good as the rest of their albums.

This is an alright album by The Black Dahlia Murder. It's not their best, but it's not their worst either. Check it out if you haven't already.

Not my favorite but a transitional album with some real bangers on it.

BDM has brought back an older, raw, and more organic sound. Coupled with their skill and style they have progressed so well in, through out the years.The album opens with an epic, fast paced assault on the senses, called "Black Valor". Which includes very brutal, yet melodic verses and chorus.As the album began, and much like the previous two albums ended. BDM brings the album home with another epic, fast-paced, juggernaut, filled with melodies.. A some what epitaph, called "I will return".The songs and album are short. Leaving the listener wanting more!!!

A must have! Great deal!

Album is awesome already and being able to puchase a vinyl of it is even more of a treat! Now we've got a bunch of older albums and some death metal!!

a album you must listen to a few times but once you get into it its killer

Thanks

Das Album in CD-Form habe ich schon sehr lange. Entgegen vieler Meinungen empfinde ich "Deflorate" als ein exzellentes Album. Schnell, hart, brutal, sehr gute Songtexte und eine sehr gute Qualität. Was mancher als das schwächste Album der Band ansieht, sehe ich als eines der stärksten. Lassen Sie sich also nicht abschrecken, es lohnt sich definitiv.Die LP habe ich mir gekauft, weil ich auch einmal diesen besonderen Sound hören wollte. Und ja, es hört sich gut an. Auch hier ist die Qualität perfekt und ich kann mich nicht beschweren. Die Platte läuft rund und makellos. So sieht sie auch aus. Einziger Punkt, den es zu erwähnen gilt, ist die Farbe. Die LP ist deutlich Orange und nicht so gelb wie auf dem Produktbild zu sehen ist! Aber das sollte niemanden wirklich stören.Sehr, sehr gut hat mir gefallen, dass ein Poster des Covers dabei ist! Hängt nun eingerahmt an meiner Wand. Sehr tolle Überraschung, weil ich es irgendwie überlesen haben muss oder es war nicht erwähnt.Die Verpackung ist sehr gut. Gutes Material, satte Farben, das Booklet im Inneren einwandfrei. Die Lieferung hat nichts beschädigt oder ähnliches.Die LP kann ich, natürlich wie die CD, nur wärmstens empfehlen. Es lohnt sich, "Necropolis" im Auto auf Lautstärke 300 zu hören und den Bass die Fenster wackeln zu lassen! Favorisierte Lieder habe ich eigentlich keine, sie sind alle extrem gut. Am schwächsten finde ich zwar "Throne of Lunacy", was aber beinahe wettgemacht wird, weil der Text um die "Great Old Ones" von H.P. Lovecraft geht.SB

Black Dhalia 👌

Penso sia un must have per chi ama questo gruppo e per chi ama il genere Death Metal/Deathcore. Forse il loro disco migliore.

Dieses Album steht den anderen Alben von The Black Dahlia Murder in nichts nach. Absolut hart und schnell vom Anfang bis zum Ende!

Great album as usual from tbdm
