Here it is folks: The Essential Soilwork. If/when soilwork ever give up making music and decide to release a greatest hits album, it'll be a 2-disc set: the best songs on all their other cd's, and "Natural Born Chaos." NBC is the result of the style soilwork experimented with on "A predator's portrait." Two albums into their career, soilwork was already bored with their own style of melodic death metal and decided to move on. Just stop and think about that: they'd already proved themselves as one of the great entrepeneurs of the Gothenburg-style of metal, and they decided to take it a step further. From what i've read (i dont own "A Predator's portrait," a future revision of this review is possible when i do finally get it), soilwork began to experiment with clean lyrics, and with pleasing results. for those of you new to soilwork, let me give you a basic description of their sound on "Natural Born Chaos": over cleverly crafted and thrashy guitar riffs, vocalist Strid powerfully screams during the verses, almost angrily, and then traverses to a high-tone climactic chant in the chorus, while keyboards and rhythmic drums carry the songs along; in a nutshell, that's pretty much it, but soilwork has a way of making every song unique and interesting, they're just the best at what they do if you aren't convinced yet, download "Black Star Deceiver," it's my favorite track off the CD and expresses everything good about "Natural Born Chaos"D-load link - http://lix.in/471b07
