It is not as bad as some are making it but yes, they have changed their sound a lot...bringing industrial and electronic influences in their sound...by the way 'I am morbid' is the highlight of the album and easily one of their best songs. '!0 more dead', 'mea culpa', 'beauty meets beast', 'nevermore' and 'blades for baal' are also killer tracks. Overall it is a good album. Old school fans would be disappointed while those who are more open with change will like it.

I am an old school MA fan, and I'm also open to change. However, the changes made to their sound on their latest album, are definitely for the worse, and sound awful. Some songs do have a more old school vibe though, if not an old school production. There is some good songs on the album, and I certainly don't think it's anywhere near as bad as some are making out. Songs like "Too Extreme!" and "Radikult" though, are totally awful...

Yeah..that's true. Some songs especially lyrics are so funny. I too was genuinely surprised at the sudden change. In fact except 'I am morbid' none of the songs quite appealed to me.

Well to be fair, most people who do that, are being serious about it. (And I think it's fair to say that both of the posters in question, were being serious) And the ones that aren't... let's just say I probably don't have the particular sense of humor required to actually find that funny.

Not as bad as people make it sound. I find it very difficult to believe that you can't even find at least one song that you like in this album. '10 more dead' for example is a kick ass song and sticks to the traditional Morbid Angel sound. And this is just an example. only 3 songs are purely industrial, the rest is at least above average death metal songs.
Give it a chance and listen to it a few more times.

I do think many people "disowned" Morbid Angel as a result of songs like "Too Extreme", and so therefore dismissed the whole album because of that. More than half of the album is more the traditional Morbid Angel sound, even if the cold production is more befitting for the techno/industrial type material, than the more straight-ahead death metal material. I do think the album comes in for too much of a bashing, due to there being 2 or 3 terrible songs on it.

Sounds like Trey was just having fun the studio on this one and it's really not that bad. "Too Extreme" is one of the funniest things I've heard in a while (I'm choosing to believe he's at least kind of taking the piss so it works for me)
I wonder if this would've got the visceral reaction it's got if it'd been released by some unknown artist / producer? I know it wasn't, but I try not to do the "It's not as good as...." thing with new releases, especially if the band are clearly experimenting with new sounds / styles / whatevers. On that level, this album is mostly OK (still not awesome, but mostly OK)
Actually, I reckon it was basically a vehicle for the bunch of remixes, and there are at least two tunes on it to keep trüeMETALgrrr fans happy-ish till Trey releases the Real New Morbid Angel LP, heh..
Hilarious hatred, though - that alone has been worth this album

This would have received a FAR higher rating had it been done by another artist, be it unknown or with a history of making music in this vein.

fanboy 
actually i do really like it, other than "too extreme!" which would have been better placed later in the album. not track 2 after the intro. just swap it in the track order with Nevermore and i think everyone would like the album a lot better.

Well, I kinda of agree with you. This track is in the wrong place. For me, it's the weakest track of the album... from what I can remember. I'm not even sure if I listened to it 100 percent

4.7 Obviously music mob rule nowadays. The darkest metal era that was to befall great musicians.
It was obvious that Pete Sandoval has changed his beater (drum stick) to a midium-headed type. 2-3 songs sound like industrial. Extremely good tempos like his early works.
I really can not say no to David Vincent's ultra bass vocals which are extremely low but very clear, distinctly audible. I really have to listen his previous works to make sure if this is his best delivery. I have a strong feeling this is his best.

Pete Sandoval doesn't play on the album, it's Tim Yeung. 
There's actually been a few stories circulating around the net recently, that Pete has actually left the band permanently. He is still listed as the drummer on Morbid Angel's official website though, and as far as I know, there has been no official statement made by the band about Pete's supposed departure.

If it wasn't MA, there wouldn't have been so much controversy. Some tracks are actually enjoyable even if the worst ones always get the attention (radikult, too extreme.....). A mixed album that ends up being quite mediocre.

Sums it up right there. It's not as horrible as everyone makes it out to be, but it's not above average. People probably give it such a low rating out of sheer disappointment, which I suppose I can understand.

The album had a very low level ..... .
The morbid angel fans (of which I am one of them) "in their minds of this group relative to the group's albums and videos that have been decades ago," I did not expect to like this.!
"Pete" did not appear on the album itself is a negative score and may indicate that "Pete" also believes that the new album should be out .... .
((( I wish a hundred times more powerful than the old Morbid angel is back on .... not a hundred times weaker! )))
