" 8th full length from these death metal legends "

" Those Once Loyal is chock full of everything you’d expect; massive grooves, thick, punishing riffage and a reserved sense of brutality that lurches and stomps with the weight and devastation of a 155mm Howitzer shell. Tracks like “The Kill Chain”, the punishing groove of “Granite Wall” and “Anti-Tank (Dead Armor)” lope with tangible, air displacing heaviness. There are also some muted harmonies and, gasp, solos as the title track (very reminiscent of …For Victory’s superb title track), “Last Stand of Humanity”, the massive “Salvo”, and the stunningly somber closure of “When Cannons Fade” (my personal favorite from this album), which show Bolt Thrower is subtly more than just Shock and Awe "

" This album is a gem. To me it is BT’s best effort so far, and everyone that doesn't own them all have no right to call themselves death metal fans in my book.......Newbies!...Give this a spin and see what heavy fucking death metal is all about "
