Vehemence - God Was Created

The ultimate concept album - 100%

TheBigDizzle, May 21st, 2004

This Album is the absolute best concept album I have ever heard. Everything comes together to make it a very special and pleasurable listening experience. I would first like to comment on Nathan Gearharts vocals, they go along with the music perfectly and I think he has one of the best death metal growls in the business today. The guitar work of Bjorn Dannov and John Chavez is some of the best you could ever hear, the two work together extremely well and the musicianship between these two is of an incredibly high level.

In my opinion there are 2 standout songs on this CD, the first of which being the powerful ‘She Never Noticed Me’. This track just goes on and on with relentless emotion, and near the end, hits you with a very memorable guitar riff which just sucks you right into the entire song. The second standout of this album would have to be ‘I Didn’t Kill Her’. This song is yet another punishing example of Vehemence’s skill and power as a band. It has somewhat of a slow start, and then it picks up and pummels you into the ground relentlessly, but it will still have you screaming for more.

Overall this is a very engaging album, with no tracks that seem like filler, but some are better than others in certain ways. I had to search high and low to get this album, but once I got it in my hands, I did not regret the purchase for a second, anyone who likes good technical death metal, with relatively intelligent lyrics would do well to pick up this CD.
