Job For a Cowboy

polyphonic · 10-20-2009, 03:17 PM

Job plays here in Springfield MO next month with Lamb of God and it's going to be bad ass... Silly Haters. Where's your metal band?

On a side note the name is funny as hell.

Stay f#*kin metal!

Where's my metal band?

I've witnessed Monstrosity, Vital Remains, and Anal **** in Missouri + many lesser known bands.

Job for a Cowboy can't hold a candle to old school death metal.

JFAC have (thank god) seemed to abandon their deathcore background and now they demand respect from their haters with Ruination, which in my honest opinion is a great death metal album.

Ehhhhhhh, I wouldn't go as far to say it's a "great" death metal album.

It's decent, and when compared to their earlier stuff, it could be considered great. But.. when comparing it to death metal as a whole? It's pretty bland and extremely forgettable.

Calling it great may have taken it a bit to far, but still I'll label it as good. It actually sorta blew me away when I heard it because I was expecting them to go back to their 'Doom' days but no, they continued where 'Genesis' went off and played pure death metal.
I wouldn't call it forgettable but I guess musically it was nothing special, I guess the driving force behind my enthusiastic opinion of the album was the surprise I got hearing it wasn't a return to Deathcore after the failure of Genesis.

Yeah I know what you mean, lol. But hey, their next album could be potentially kick ass if they keep up the pattern.

I'm more into Old School Death metal anyway, so I am being a bit biased. There's not a lot of modern stuff that I like much, heh. It all seems to focus too much on being overly technical, or just trying to be "brutal". It doesn't have the same feel to it, the same ideology old school death metal had.

Caught these live on Saturday as support to Lamb Of God and they sucked so much. Just a damn mess. Terrible band.
