Title: Did Metallica Join Archenemy after the black album?
Review: Listening to Archenemy makes me think that they took metallica's music in the direction it should have gone after the black album which is what metallica failed to do. This is evident from the slow lazy guitar riffs in the LOAD albums up to their disgracefull slacker performance in St. Anger.AE Plays amazing guitar riffs especially on this album. their very full and rich in tone with a metallica-ish type of chug to it. Unlike the other Scandanavian Metal bands such as Dark Tranquility, In Flames, and Dimmur who cheapen their songs with symphonic background music, Archenemy keeps their sound raw by emphasizing there guitars drums and vocals.. These guys (and the gal) are pure black metal.. I get a lot of enjoyment listening to their guitar mastery complimented by their vocals. AE has become one of my favorite contemporary metal bands.
Is the review positive or negative?
