After listening to and thoroughly enjoying As The Palaces Burn today, I thought I'd post this poll.

That would be Burn The Priest.

And yes, it counts.

Heh, I didn't know "Site Administrators" like yourself had the power to alter posts and web polls. I'm very afraid now. :roll:

Actually, I just moderate several forums. I don't abuse my powers. However, I just had to alter this one. Sorry.

Burn The Priest is so much better than anything else they ever did.

I found the re-release of this album in Boston for $2. I fucking hated it and sold it on eBay for a whopping $2.75. It was that bad. The Lamb Of God songs I've heard have been no better.

I just find it extremely hard to find something to latch onto in their music. All the screaming is fine, but where's the hook?

Hook? Why must everything have a hook? Why must everything be catchy and easily digestible with you? *wink*

The hook for me was the awesome heavy riffage with the math-metal structures and time signatures, the insane vein-popping screaming, the inventive song construction, and the crazy-ass drumming that reminded me of Vinne Paul on methamphetamines.

I LOVE that album.

The attraction of Lamb of God is its lifeless, atonal and relentless domination of your soundscape. Not unlike... Helmet.

I bolded the answer for you! :wink: The very first band I listened to was Def Leppard, the masters of the hook. That's just what I like. There are plenty of bands out there that don't have these massive hooks that I enjoy very much, but Lamb Of God just did nothing for me. I can appreciate their technical skill, but I just didn't like any of it.

I'm not calling them a bad band at all, I hope you noticed that. I'm just discussing music. Of course, that has nothing to do with the question of this thread, but thread-hijacking is fun! :D

I think Meshuggah win the lifeless and relentless competition by a few miles

New American Gospel, I haven't heard Burn The Priest, but I should really pick it up at some point. (AOTW in close second)

Agreed. That's where my vote went. Their most aggressive album in my opinion.

Maybe when the metalcore flames burns a little less bright I can start to enjoy some of its ilk again.

Yep, they are all good!!

Oh, I like the hook too, but I am not always in an upbeat mood. Perhaps this is something more to do with our personalities, and you know, deep issues.
