First Track Review: Austrian Death Machine - Triple Brutal

Ugh. I don't wanna. on to the metals
Austrian Death Machine - Triple Brutal
Look, I appreciate what these guys are doing. I really do. Anytime a band tries to bring a sense of humor to a scene that all too often takes itself waaaaay too seriously, I love it. These guys just have never been my style. Added to the fact that the singer Tim Lambesis (or however the fuck you spell his name) probably used some of the Kick starter funds for the creation of this album to hire a cop to kill his ex-wife and is sitting in jail while this releases on April 1st, is almost just too much ridiculous for the human brain to handle. However, I said I'd do it, so I'm doing it.
First track is an actually pretty funny skit intro with Arnold trying to do a mic check by screaming "NYEH!" into the mic over and over again.
First real song. I'll Be Back
Enter the metalcore. It's not the worst, and Arnie is still trying to check the mic. Arnie intros the song with a building typical metalcore riff rolling along. And boom. Into the groove. I don't actually hate this, but I can see it getting extremely boring in about three tracks. I'll Be Back is short and to the point. It is exactly what these guys have always set out to do.
Like I said, I don't hate it. As far as metalcore goes, it's pretty good. The sense of humor behind it adds a lot. I might have the patience to check out the rest of it later. I may not.
