I'm repeating myself here but after giving it another listen it's even worse. The vocals are grating and that monotone delivery hurts to listen to.
Paul Bostaph has to be the only one that gets something rewarding on a creative level.
Everything else being mapped out for the other band members.
Ah what's the point. It's not like KK is reading this thinking " what have I done, some cunt in Ireland said the songs are shit".

The song starts out as a Repentless b-side and by the mid section it's devolved into scutter that wouldn't have made the cut on Diabolus. Seems Kerry just wants to soldier on with the worst elements of Slayer.

You can picture him sitting in front of the telly, chugging on e- minor and recording every dull second of it... by the time Home and Away has finished he has a full album written.

Deliberately avoiding this like the plague

With this being an exercise in rebranding and repackaging the same old tried and tested clichés, I can't help but wonder how close we are to just letting AI take over the creative process. I mean how much worse could it be?

And not just for Kerry King/ Slayer but all the middle aged metal bands that peaked 30 years ago. Like at this stage I wouldn't even be shocked if Metallica admitted that 72 Seasons was created by AI.

Idle left hand does Devil's work,You gotta give him that.

Adding lots of club shows between the festival dates, see the London Electric Ballroom added, wonder how likely a show here could be?

And you know you'd all be there topless in the pit.

I wouldn't cross the road for this shit. Reminds me of Lamb of God or some shit, fuck off shouting at me will ya.

This album will responsible for more can crushing than a recycling centre

Still, there'll be a few bemused heads in The Kingdom when the pissed young lads are lurching about sceeaming 'fuckin' Kerry!'

I like the vocals.
That intro reminds me of Broken Cog by Meshuggah.

Until now, this was the only way to crush a can...

Can't get my head around what everyone thinks is wrong with Diabolous in Musica.  The two King tunes have been far worse than every song on that bar one

Bitter peace, deaths head, stain of mind and point aside it's a fairly uninspired album. I think the hate comes from the perceived nubmeral bandwagoning

I like Diabolus myself, the tracks mentioned are cool but I also like In the Name of God, Overt Enemy and Wicked. Their slower stuff was excellent
