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.

That's an odd mentality. I see nothing about this band that should have them under "guilty pleasure" status, aside from their popularity and baffling inclusion in the metalcore scene. They're a quality alt-thrash band and always have been really.

You shouldn't worry about such things. You'll never be as uncool as me so when the kvltards start picking on you send them my way and I'll make them embarrassed to be on the same planet as me.

Yes, I picked on the sarcasm or was at least suspecting it. I was just mocking people who actually take this kind of stuff seriously, they are still out there... but who cares.

Oh they are, legions of them. Although with a band like LoG, sometimes it's warranted. Not the kvlt points thing, but the hate.

I mean Randy Blythe can really come across as a real piece of shit. http://www.metalunderground.com/news/details.cfm?newsid=74957

That being said, I still enjoy the music - even though I wasn't thrilled with the new single at all.

Got this album (legal) yesterday! And I have to say, it kicks ass! If this sets the bar for all the metal releases this year 2012 will be a awesome year to be a metalhead!
The songs are very LOG like and there are some lyrics that will be awesome to let the audience scream at concerts!
THE NUMBER SIX
"You've dug your own grave with your spite"
"You've dug your own grave lie by lie"

Randy even has some clean vocals in the first part of "Insurrection"
For all the LOG fans get the 2 disk edition, it comes with a live CD from the Wrath tour 2009-2010

This will be in my CD player for a long time

... 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.

With the exception of one song that I hate because it sounds like a 'record company made us try and do something popular' track, the album overall is high-quality, straight-forward Lamb Of God. And, although I've moved to less-commercial forms of metal in recent years (strictly so), if you like this genre or brand of music and like Lamb Of God it's hard to say that this is anything short of another successful album by the band and it's done at a high level.

I'll certainly go see them live again (time #4), as the perform excellently live, it should be noted. Resolution is a very good album and the band is very good at what they do. I'm not sure how long Randy's vocals are going to hold up, lol. This record has some catchier stuff on it than Wrath did. Still, their 2nd-4th albums remain my favorite. Resolution is definitely a release worth getting if you are a fan of Lamb Of God and worth checking out even if you aren't.

Yeah, I can stand or even like it for just 4-5 songs, but then I get a bit *derp* and stop it.
If you manage to get through the whole record, well that's only good for you.

It's like Wrath 2, so average...
The LOG we knew until Sacrament were a really special band. Now they seem to me, as just another american heavy metal band with a good drummer...
