Remember when Lamb Of God were busy pioneering never-before-heard-of, genre-bending, boundary-pushing, avant-garde experimental transcendental music? Neither does anyone else. Resolution won't change the way you listen to the band's music either. Unless you continue to listen with the speakers off.

Resolution is the seventh studio album by American band Lamb Of God. It contains 14 tracks and has a running time of around 56-minutes. It sees the band consolidate their position as one of the most popular American metal bands of the last decade. Their familiar sound is still there on this album but it also contains some unexpected moments that show their willingness to experiment and evolve.

After the somewhat experimental, uneven Sacrament and phoned-in blandness of Wrath, Lamb of God return with a vengeance on Resolution. Listening to this is like erasing the past 8 years and picking up right where the excellent Ashes Of The Wake left off.

From the first dirty, southern guitar chords to Randy's shriek, I am back in high school again. The production is crystal clear, but not washed out. "Walk With Me In Hell," though a great song, sounded like it was recorded in a tin can, and Wrath in general was so compressed it felt like a SNES soundtrack. This is a return to the riff machine that made these guys top dogs to begin with. The guitar-work is fast, tight, and just plain fun. If you were one of the people who went racing for tabs after hearing "Laid To Rest" the first time, this is the album for you. There are too many moments to name, but the intro transition on "Ghost Walking," and the relentless "Terminally Unique" stick out in my mind at the moment.

The LOG we knew until Sacrament were a really special band.

Agreed. Sacrament and Wrath are not as good as their earlier stuff...but I still like them.

Listen through it about 10 times now, and it keeps getting better and better:) i love the new production sound, and their more progressive approach to their music. And randy's vocals are better than ever.

... So, yeah, it's aggressive and all, but after 20 minutes of angry barks and thundering riffs it quickly gets tiresome and puts me in a *whatever-I-just-don't-fuckin-care* mood.

eeeeeh that's why it's called Metal. If you can't stand it there always is some guy called bieber

For me it's a decent album but there's nothing special. they've got the speed up from the previous records but seems to me they lost some of the tasty grooves and killing guitar riffing stuffs.

some songs are really amazing especially the second half, but overall i feel they can do it a little bit better.

I found the second half to be way better than the first half also.

I'm glad I didn't judge it from the first listening, giving it a little time (more than your average new album release) it grows a lot. It is a very solid album. I'm glad LOG stays the course, the pure American metal course. I hope to catch them live this year.

I gave it a few listens, since I almost hated it on the first one. Now I enjoy it and I'm giving it a good rate.

Excellent album and I do love Blythe's vocals - I think he has really taken a big step forward on this album. Some wonderful and catchy guitar hooks yet still very brutal. I also saw them play live twice in the past few weeks and it was very enjoyable to see them play Desolation, Ghost Walking, The Undertow and The Number Six.

This album picks up in the 2nd half as compared to the 1st, in my opinion.

I didn't like this at first, but it grew on me. I play, write, and used to record music. So when a band tries different things, I don't automatically get up in arms about it. I like a lot of these riffs and the dynamics are cool. I only wish the mix wasn't brick walled. If modern albums could breathe a bit, the heavy punches and mood shifts would be more powerful. While I haven't seen any of these songs live, I would imagine they translate better that way than this mix does.

I'm stunned actually. Never been much of a fan, although I've always liked them. But this album blew my mind. I don't know why. I guess it's because I've listened to a lot of deep pretentious not-so-metal music lately and needed a dose of right-in-your-face-metal.

The same thing here. There isn't any variation in the songs. Every song sounds the same (with 2 exceptions being "Ghost Walking" & "King Me").
