Only just noticed the lyrics in "We Came to Conquer":

"Hey, Gama Bomb
You didn't write this riff
so hey, Warbringer
Eat our Lich King dicks
Hey, Havok
We just put you to shame
and hey, everyone,
if you're not us you're lame"

They are young, gotta lot of gas in their tank to spit on their rivals and I guess through this lyrics they just try to come up with the clear reason : "DON'T FUCK WITH US"!!

Definitely an album to check out for thrash fans. Currently, I prefer World Gone Dead to this, but I have given the new album no more than 5 listens so far. Among obvious improvements is the production.

I have a problem. This is less fun and exciting. What do you think about that? I think you're pretty familiar with this band, and that's why I'd like to know your opinion. So what I'm saying is that they've lost some of their most valuable keys.


idk about him, but atleast I can confidently say "this record stands out their best"(comparing to their previous works). Lyrically, they try to beefed up with other thrash bands spitting some cheesy lines on them and showed that "LK" isn't just another bunch of untalented, inexperienced young musicians who will be castigated on revivalism of thrash scene. Personally, i enjoyed their latest disc. Crushing riffs, hard-hitting drumming with powerful bass took album to very different level of great musicianship.

May be you found flaws in it, but to me it's straight 9 on their ratings( which is near to "awesome").

I have listened to Born of the Bomb a little more and I have to say that the first four tracks are good, and then everything else is not so cool really compared to World Gone Dead. The Agent Steel is great too by the way (great vocal performance) + "Lich King IV" is not bad. By the way, have you noticed that the separated bass line on "Ling King IV" at 2:40-2:50 is very similar to the main (unbelievably awesome fat) riff of "ED-209?" That kind of makes it a little lame because it sounds like an incomplete representation of that very riff but then it's followed by something less cool...

So, up till now I still hold the same position: World Gone Dead is superior in terms of songwriting and quality/originality of ideas.

Combat mosh was good... The whole album kicked ass

The word gen means "illusion" or "apparition." In India, a man who uses conjury is called a genjutsushi ["a master of illusion technique"]. Everything in this world is but a marionette show. Thus we use the word gen.

I'd give this album a 10. it is so entertaining got thrash fans. Beside that, some songs have catchy and very powerful riffs like In the end, devastation and Combat Mosh. Don't miss it.

A whole year since it's release and I still think this is the best Thrash metal album of 2012, I enjoyed World Gone Dead, but this is a huge improvement in almost every aspect.

And hey, they are know for being sarcastic, they bash a lot of bands in a friendly way, for example, they are great pals with the guys of Vektor, but still they bash them when they have the chance. Don't take those lines so seriously.

I like the humorous style this guys bring. I dont think they are shitting on anyone, they're just having fun which is nice. Good Album overall, We Came to Conquer is a killer track.

I know this is quite a late reply, but they are buds with Gama Bomb, Havok, etc. It's just a good jest.
