I think their songwriting needs dire help. Too many ideas flowing but not much cohesion going on. I want to hear more things in the vein of, "Equilibrio Fatal". Some of the neoclassical solos are nice too.

I agree. This has received a lot of internet chatter recently and was given AOTM on AMG but I don't hear the frothy praise. There's certainly some stuff going for it but it's too all over the place for my liking.

It's probably the use of the clarinet and its novelty in metal that's grabbing people's attention. While it is nice, I am able to look passed it and judge it as a whole then being surprised by one general element the whole time.

Pretty good ultra-fast thrash

I enjoyed this one a lot. The songwriting could be better, but at least it's not just another modern carbon copy thrash. I wonder if anyone else here noticed that the album title is actually reference to Slaughterhouse Five, a classic novel.
