SODOM - Decision Day
Steamhammer
Records
This
one is definitely a step-up from “Epitome of Torture”, it just has more energy
to it and is catchier. I'll admit that I only have 2 SODOM albums in my
collection. I've never been a huge fan until “Agent Orange” came out some 20+
years ago... then my interest faded after succeeding albums with lineup changes
left me in disinterest with the band. But I tried “Epitome of Torture” and just
ultimately didn't care for much. I feel that “Decision Day” is filled with good
lyrics, fresh riffs, good leads and cool vocals by Tom Angelripper. I think
that this is one of their best albums that I've heard by them. Helped a little
with technology, the production quality is superb and the music just says it
all. It's simply original sounding and has a lot of balls to it.
Every
song on here kicks butt. I've read through the lyrical concepts too to each
song and think that Tom is onto something here. Just the fact that they're dark
words, they do play a huge part in today's society.
I'm
a big supporter of buying CD's, it could be because I'm 40 and I grew up with
record stores all around me in California and now here in Chicago. There's
always a need for record stores to exist. Some people still want to support
this dying scene of everything gone digital. But yeah, Tom and the newest
line-up is what's fueled the release. It didn't get good feedback for nothing.
These guys worked their butts off.
The
fact that the songs aren't just with distorted guitars makes it more diverse. I
liked the album from start to finish. I think that they just really made
something significant. It's really groove laden with the riffs, they match
where the vocals should sound. Definitely worth purchasing if you want the full
experience.
Finally,
I would say that SODOM was sort of dead to me with “Decision Day” they seemed
to be born again.
