This is a kick ass, face melting, ear bleeding slice of metal happiness. FFDP deliver the goods on American Capitalist in a big way. The title track which opens the album with the lyrics 'I'm a red blooded Rough neck, Son of a bitch, I'm a goddamned American capitalist" that are instantly engrained into your brain and tells you with authority what this album has in-store for you the listener. Another excellent metal record release in the second half of 2011 continuing the current streak which is awesome for us fans heavy metal. The band's first single "Under & Over It" is a crushing elephant stampede with a lyrical kick in the face that just puts a huge smile on my face. As the album blazes across it's eleven tracks some of the music is a little off the pace of greatness the first two songs for sure. The bands attempt at a crossover type tune "Coming Down" is actually a really good tune and doesn't sound like a selling of their soul at all. See this band has the ability to be themselves even when trying to grow or be dynamic. That is not easy for a lot nu-metal acts but FFDP do it easily and honestly as its just another part of their own sound so it transitions smoothly. I have to admit I do not care for the very weak "I'll Fall" it is just a bad song but the closing song "100 Ways To Hate" makes up for it ten times over. If you like nu-metal or power metal than this album is a wicked choice. The album art is also brilliant as you can see in the picture here. Listen to the playlist and enjoy the metal, HORNS UP!
