Matt Smith's vocals (great metal name there, as fear-inducing as Matthew Barlowe) vary between a death grunt and rasp without going in for any of that piercing metalcore singing stuff, and he's perfectly suited to the hard guitar riffs and pummelling drums, which are actually impressive when not just relying on a machine gun imitation for heaviness.

'The Arcanum Order' is a consistent debut from American band At the Throne of Judgement, by which I mean that all of the songs sound pretty much exactly the same (and the band name and album title seem to be the wrong way round, don't you think?) On the positive side, this is decent enough Soilwork-style melodic death metal that isn't really death metal, but is a bit too good and not overtly hostile enough to be considered metalcore, which will still be hard enough for those who don't mind a bit of crossover.

Entertaining classic metal with doom-style guitars. 
The lyrics. Great vocals and music, even like the concept None Effective, uncompromising drone doom. Tedious and static-laden, if you're not into that sort of thing. Competent technical death metal that doesn't show off. Lacks individuality. Some catchy tunes Voice is a bit annoying, musically not really outstandingSwords And Diamonds - Cryonic Temple
Perfect imitation heavy metal. No ideas of its own.
Synthetic Division - Crossbreed
Balanced fusion of industrial and rock elements. All been heard before.
Take No Prisoners - Chinchilla
Greater band performance. Still falls in the face of competition.
Take Offs And Landings - Rilo Kiley
Jenny Lewis, the indie-sounds of a band learning the ropes of music Meandering feel, no real 'kick' songs
Telemission - Durango Riot
The music is extremely energetic and fun. The best I feel is yet to come.
The 1st Chapter - Circus Maximus
Talented progressive metal by-the-numbers. Heard it all before.
The Alternative - IAMX
There are a couple of remotely interesting moments. Most of the album is despicably dull.
The Beauty Of Contrast - Sinew
The album is packed full of atmosphere, the music is action packed from start to finish. Some of the tracks are quite long, this could put some people off listening.
The Beyond - Cult Of Luna
Goth - 2003
Terra - Cronian
Side helping for fans of modern Borknagar, with good vocals and guitar. Less impressive than the primary band.
