AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE ‘The Feeding’ DRT (2005)

To be honest I was not sure I was going to like this CD, not being a fan of "screamy" modern metal. I was pleasantly surprised by this release by AHC, said to be one of the leading lights of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal (that includes bands like Mastadon & Shadows Fall) this load do deliver the goods.

Having been through personal problems (including rehab) and label problems over the past 4 years, the band have emerged to produce a tight collection of modern metal stylings. Eleven songs of pure aggression produced by a group of capable players with a lot to prove. One of the highlights has to be 'Dirty' with its repetitious but catchy chanting of the song title. Other highlights include 'Loyalty', which is to be released on Valentines Day in the UK. The current intimate venue headline tour of the UK is already sold out according to their website.

They have just been added to an April tour that includes Slipknot, Lamb of God and Shadows Fall. The band is a must for fans of Slayer and their modern mutant offspring. I have no doubt this one will outsell its predecessor. Nothing like a dose of angry angst to get you going now is there?
