In Flames - The Jester Race |
Rating - 5/5 |
By Greg Northrup
Utterly brilliant. From
the opening strains of "Moonshield" to the dying notes of "Dead God In
Me", this album is pure metallic ecstasy. All the songs are fast, catchy, and packed
with killer riffs. The infectious "Artifacts Of The Black Rain" and the title
track provide the listener with the best in 90's heavy metal. Along with Amorphis' Elegy ,
this is one of the two best albums of '96. There not much else to say about this album
except that it is as close to perfect as any album can possibly be, and that it is
essential.
