Order Of Chaos Apocalypse Moon

2015, The monster just comes right out of the gates with ,,The Anthem Of Pain"; this song dismisses the fact that Amanda Kiernan is just another ´female in metal`. Her vocal delivery all over this CD is just flat out impressive on so many levels. She goes screaming and soothing with so much passion and heart, you feel she wants to jump out of the speakers and grab you by the throat. It seems each record this band grows, and this time the growth may scare some fans of the band, this record does get a little melodic more than past releases but the sound the band has generated this time around is so tight. This is a band that really knows each other's strengths and tries to showcase them all over each song. Amanda can go from screaming to soothing and then screaming again with so much heart and passion you just sink right into her voice. The title track is so catchy, that guitar sound is so crunchy and then you have the vocals and drums fighting each other to be heard.
