2 stars A pretty surprising debut album from this Swedish death metal band.

The surprise is not their sound though. It is the typical Swedish death metal sound which the likes of Dismember and Entombed developed. So far, so familiar. But Unmoored is not a Dismember clone. Their inclusion of Type O Negative like clear vocals, hip hop and some neo metal elements in the vein of all these new metal bands like Korn, Limp Bizkit and the types of band people half my age knows better than I do. A very strange, ultra-heavy eclectic mix it is. A blend of Dismember and Korn. What has the world come to ?

I am not a fan of this rapping type of vocals and neither am I a fan of this hip hop thingy. The songs here are not that good either. There are some decent songs here and this album is by no means a bad album. But I guess men half my age will like this album more than I do. In short; if you are older than 25 years old; don't bother. If you are a young man, get this album.

2 stars (yes, give me a straw with that mug of tea)
