I love 5FDP, I love their first few albums a ton, I used to listen to them all day long, but the last album that was split in two or w/e only had a few songs I liked, the rest were just meh. I did not even realise they had this new album out until right now.. they are pumping them out when they should probably take some more time to work on the songs. Like I said, I’m a huge fan, but I have to admit I don’t really like the direction they are heading in.. Hopefully we will see more songs like their earlier stuff in the future.
I seriously don’t give that much of a shit about the lyrics, I find all the “FUCK IT ALL” ‘s a bit comical at times, but it really doesn’t stop me from enjoying their music, the riffs are badass and like he said ivan moody’s voice is really powerful. I think some of the tracks on this album could have been left out, but this shit kind of never gets old for me. I dont get how everyone is praising the shit out of Disturbed but all the hate on FFDP… if I was a known youtube critic I would give this album a 7.4/10
please i love this band but this album is shit just shit please do a re-review
some of you must have amnesia, I’ve never found their older music forgettable, but I will admit their new album is lacking
I’m the only one who likes this album, in the world.
Damn dude, you’re really picky with your scores. I disagree with most of your scores
As a ‘die hard’ ffdp fan I’ll agree with you on the fact they don’t do deep songs. But the thing is that’s not what I expect from them. If I wanted something thought provoking I’ll put on some tool, opeth, or even serj tankian.
For me ffdp is the band I listen to get pumped because it’s just such a powerful sound. The ‘chants’ as you called them maybe shallow, but they stand the hairs on my neck right up
This album was absolute shit. Go back to the way of the fist
This is album is a big guilty pleasure for me, aside from boots and blood being one of the worst written songs I’ve ever heard, this is the album I blast loudly during a workout or just before a fight. The production on this album is INSANELY GOOD .
who needs ffdp when there is Lamb of God
I want more lyrics from his motograter days..
5FDP is To Aggressive for my taste
Too bad their Vevo has over half the album blocked in the US.
While I do like Five Finger Death Punch, I will admit that they do kind of remind me of frat boy versions of Slipknot.
CAN WE ALL JUST AGREE THAT THERE STILL BETTER THEN JUSTIN BIEBER, PLUS ALL THE OTHER DANCE/POP SHIT THAT THE KIDS ARE BUYING IN TO THOSE DAYS CUZ THAT’S WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE WORLD, I MEAN GOD DAM IT’S LIKE A FUCKING PLAGUE OF NO TALENTED POP STARS TAKING OVER THE WORLD,
I can only imagine this album would appeal to a kid in middle or high school who is listening to their first metal album. Otherwise the lyrics are so cheesy and cliched.
i think your wrong they rocked it especially no sudden movement
not sure if you know but the refrain from jekyll and hyde (what I think is the weakest track except for the second half) was recorded on the voicemail of one of the band members, that’s why it sounds like that
maybe if these guys went political?
I enjoy your videos but how are you so nice and tolerent of Five Finger death punch? While you do nothing but bash Limp Bizkit, just because Fred is a bit of a douchebag and a poor lyricist, i’d take Bizkit over these any day, they’re so generic it hurts.
Why is everyone saying that this album sucks? It still sounds like FFDP but with a little more pop or something i guess. I think it’s good.
This album is pretty weak. The only song I’ve been constantly listening to is Wash It All Away. Ain’t My Last Dance and Question Everything are also pretty good, but stuff like No Sudden Movement, Hell to Pay, Got Your Six, Digging My Own Grave, Meet My Maker, and Boots and Blood are pretty bland and forgettable. As for Jekyll and Hyde as a whole it’s decent but it’s ruined for me by that terrible OE OE OH ruined it for me.
Most of this album felt like rejected songs from past albums all in one package.
I enjoy quite a few songs from this album, but there’s a *lot* of duds here.
The best song they’ve ever released in my opinion is I Apologize
I’ve loved Death Punch ever since I discovered them a few years ago, but I’ve gotta say that these guys have lost touch with who they are. When Way of the Fist came out, it shook the pillars of Hell with violent thrash and groove that was nothing if not sick and brutal with lyrics to match it perfectly. The War is the Answer came out and expressed just how dynamic they are, going from Dying Breed and Burn it Down to Far from Home and Walk Away. American Capitalist was when things started getting iffy, though. Songs like Under and Over it, American Capitalist, and The Pride were great songs and even the softer songs Remember Everything and Coming down were powerful in their own element, but it started to look as though they were growing more and more distant from their original sound. Then Wrong Side of Heaven came out and with each song that played it seemed that they just got lazier and lazier. Don’t get me wrong I enjoyed several songs off of the album, but they don’t get nearly
Worst album by them but nonetheless not a sellout album or anything. Jekyll and Hyde is probably the best track actually, unpopular opinion, but it’s at least very aggressive. Still, if they could get to “way of the fist” style again that’d be nice
OREO-EO-EOThere’s cream filling inside! Seriously FFDP?
Want good Death Punch? Way of the Fist
There was one track I liked from this album; and it wasn’t even on the standard edition: I Apologize.
You hit it on the head. This album seems very generic and very simple when we know they are capable of so much more. I say this album is kind of a crossroads for them, in the fact that do they continue the radio friendly music, or do they get heavier. As for Ivan Moody being a focus point for the band, I really have to disagree. I would say Jeremy Spencer and Zoltan Bathory are the main focal points. Just listen to their first two releases to get what I am saying.
You never mentioned Boots and Blood. That song was awful.
i still dig some of the tracks but then again when i hear music, i create images and scense in my head that are just one off things or tied to a story i am working on, i think that is why i like Jam rock. i can see the point though
I thought you would hate this album lol this is as generic as limp bizkit and Ivan’s lyrics are ain’t helping their case take a listen to boots and blood for a example saying fuck every 2 words man doesn’t Fred durst do that all the time
i liked this album but still hope for better soon please
I love FFDP for what they are
And that, is a band that makes heavy, catchy, violent songs
They have their place, like other musicians and their respective styles
except for a couple tracks, not going to lie had this album on repeat for a few days
Have you heard of Motogater? They are the original band Ivan Moody was in
God, I FFFFFFFFFUCKING hate this album!
I was actually a bit disappointed with this album. Although I did like Question Everything and My Nemesis. I think they should make a song that has the pure in-your-face anger and brutality of Way of the Fist (the song, not the album) and the raw emotion of Remember Everything. If they could pull that off, and then expand that into a full album, and I know they’re capable of doing that, then they would have a badass album.
I really think 5FDP should change producers. Kevin Churko to me I have a feeling he’s writing these lyrics for them. Even Disturbed’s Immortalized, some lyrics were kinda repetitive like ‘open your eyes’ ‘what are you waiting for’ and ‘who’. I really like both albums though. Just not a fan of Churko, the only good album he’s produced with 5FDP was War is the Answer.
