 Incredible and primitive unfortunately they are almost exclusively a studio band, and it will be difficult to see them live, but the album is truly overwhelming if one can dig into the "chaos".

Despite signing with a major label, Lamb of God maintains their aggressive sound. Listen to Ashes of the Wake now and experience one of extreme metal’s fiercest albums!

 "Heavy and fast riffs supported by the abrasive screaming of the singer Jesse Leach, who feels completely at ease even in the quieter parts."

 "This is a great album filled with rage and ferocity but at the same time sadness and resignation... it has two sides... and I incredibly like both of them."

The review praises Killswitch Engage's album 'Alive Or Just Breathing' for its intense fusion of melodic trash-death metal and American hardcore. The vocals by Jesse Leach and guitar-driven sound by Adam Dutkiewicz stand out, especially notable due to the latter also performing drums. The album's blend of rage and sadness creates a compelling duality. The reviewer highlights standout tracks and warns against mislabeling the band as nu-metal. Recommended for immersive listening at high volume. Listen to 'Alive Or Just Breathing' and experience Killswitch Engage's raw metalcore intensity today!
