Folks don't get to attached to All Out War you know they are just going to break up again and then get back together again to put out another album, rinse and repeat.
It's clear that the fire that once burned in this band has been extinguished for a long time. "Assassins in the House of God" is another example showing that when a band breaks up it's usually for the better. It is at that point that they know their fuel has been on empty for awhile and departure is necessary. All Out War have taken it upon themselves to give fans another reunion the way KISS would with their arguable "Farewell Tours". This is all relevant to the new album.
The new disc is essentially the same song writing approach as their previous, the whole "cross-over" sound but they don't do anything thrilling with it anymore and haven't been. This is pretty much another "Condemned to Suffer" which in itself was not that fantastic but not terrible, the same goes for this new one. You get the usual slayer-esque speed verses that wind up spilling into breakdowns. It’s all getting a bit tiresome and it seems more of a nostalgia trip than a band continuing its musical endeavor.
