Misery Inc. - Random End

Fucking amazing! - 95%

Covnt, January 1st, 2008

The title says pretty much all. I was curious about this band so i decided to check them out. First track called Hymn For Life starts with nice drumming and then heavy guitar comes in with an awesome growl of Jules Näveri. Too bad that he left the band... Hymn For Life is a great opening with very catchy chorus. Both Mankinen and Näveri do awesome job.

Then comes thrashy and still fucking catchy Fallen Rage followed with more melodic masterpiece Further/Deeper and thrashy Yesterday's Grave. At this point this album seems to be finnish metal at it's best. I really like Näveri's brutal vocals mixed with awesome melodic clean vocals perfomed by Mankinen. They do absolutely stunning job together.

Apologies Denied continues the greatness of this album with another thrashy riff with somehow groovy vocals of Mankinen and Näveri's ass-kicking growling. Chorus is one of the best in the album.

Cyanide is nice song but it's somehow one step backwards from the greatness. I'm little bit disappointed... Well... That was only a little minus since next song is unbelieveable. Source Of Fatal Addiction is clearly the greatest highlight of Random End. Totally kickass song. I think i'll never forget the chorus. It's maybe the best chorus i've ever heard. Absolutely perfect song.
Greed Rules The World is another little step backwards. It's a great song anyways... After that i'm getting worried since ''Truth'' is pretty much average. There's not much to say about these songs. They're good but still average.

No Excuse For Weakness has a great riff which lightens my hope about greatness of the rest of the album. Song is awesome but not as good as Source Of Fatal Addiction or Further/Deeper.

Then there's the last one... Out Of Here Alive happens to be a fucking great ending. It's not any cheese slow ballad to end the album. Guitars, drums, and Näveri's vocals are brutal while Mankinen gives great atmosphere with his clean vocals.

This album was a great experience. Too bad that Breedgreedbreed is pretty average album and it's not a worthy successor for this masterpiece. Anyone who likes thrashy riffs and awesome growls mixed with stunning clean vocals should get this album.
