ROFL!!!

I TOTALLY AGREE THAT THIS ALBUMDOESNT COME ANYWHERE NEAR CLOSE TO THE WAY OF THE FIST ALBUM. I can’t believe the disappointment I bought yesterday. The funny thing about it is that 4 stores i went to were SOLD OUT of the album. I really like ffdp but this (War is the Anwser) is Garbage. The few songs they put out to promote this album were the only good ones on there. They better take time after this tour and write. Write some good FUCKIN MELT YOUR FACE OFF METAL AND BECOME SOMETHING THAT STANDS OUT OR THEY WILL GET LEFT BEHIND. Too many good metal albums came out this year, behelmoth,Mastodon,Devil Driver etc. to be puttin out such elementry music.

I think it kills. Don’t get your review, but then again I like Soil, Slipknot even Drowning Pool so I guess… whatever… I think 5FDP owns

FFDP are fucking abysmal. It doesn’t strike as me surprising therefor that they’d release this shovel-load of cunt.

So far, two people admitted to liking them… Out of 5 comments, that’s a pretty disturbing ratio!

its because most people are the kind of fucking retards that watch Coronation Street, like Machine Head and think Lee Evans is funny. If you tick any of those boxes, find yourself a busy motorway and stand in the outside lane and think about what you’ve done! Oh and take your copy of War Is The Answer with you!

I guess I have to ruin your ratio too. These guys fucking slay. If you have a chance see them live and (like myself) you will change your opinion faster than you can say “what the fuck was that” . I wasn’t interested either, mainly because of the band’s odd name so I watched them out of pure neccessity (they were opening for Machine Head) however, I missed most of the Machine Head set because I was looking for my jaw!

Not since Pantera I saw a band this devastating. As a fellow musician I am a harsh critic, and here I was re-thinking my own ideals about live shows. First time in my life, I felt discouraged and unequipped. There is no other way to put it it, but these guys kicked my ass and thought me a lesson while doing it, and I’m glad they did, because it makes me work harder. I bought their album and I loved it. This new one is even better. 5FDP figured out something a lot of musicians fail to realize.

As you pointed out yourself, they have a sound of their own. That alone is an accomplishment. Just how many bands we know that don’t have that kind of identity? Second, they write songs that are memorable. Add these two together and you got yourself a recepie. The recepie of success. Now, add the fact that they SLAY live, you see where I’m going with this. So hats of to these dudes.

I’m sure our favorite deathmetal bands would disgree, but I’d like to know how tr00 and br00tal they will look in a Burger King uniform after they’re too old to put on the make-up. You ask me, I’d go to audition for 5FDP before Immortal or even Behemoth.

almost forgot…

Nu-Metal? I don’t want to be a dick, but do you even know the definition of Nu-Metal?
You need to read up on the subject .

If twin guitar harmonies, shredding solos, (they even have an instrumental all shred song), Swedish/Euro style MINOR KEY melodies are nu-metal then sign me up for some of that nu-metal-core-whatever you call it.

If anything, I hear some classic hard-rock influences on the new album. Very UN-nu-metal.

Cheers for the comments.

Of course more people are going to love this shit than hate it. This is because, as I’ve stated before, most people are retarded. Devildriver shows sell out in the same week that Dream Theater or Wolf don’t.

I won’t argue that they have a sound of their own or that they make memorable songs. They are memorably shit. This is a RECEPIE[sic] for some straight up turdwank. You can’t deny they use Nu metal vocals & awful metalcore breakdowns.

I also sincerely doubt that I will ever see Abbath or Nergal in Burger King, although I did once see Zoltan Bathory sucking dick in the toilets of a McDonalds.

Of course, this is all my personal opinion & if 5FDP can make themselves $Xmillion pedaling their particular brand of pish, then good on them. Go and be the worst fucking band you can be!

“If twin guitar harmonies, shredding solos, (they even have an instrumental all shred song), Swedish/Euro style MINOR KEY melodies are nu-metal then sign me up for some of that nu-metal-core-whatever you call it.”

MINOR KEY melodies! in a metal song! it clearly can’t be nu-metal if its in a minor key! ahahahahah epic fail

“Unfortunately our hopes of body being discovered were cruelly dashed when he was ‘found’ alive & well. Las Vegas police have no record of a missing person report but that’s most likely because he was sat in his hotel room wanking into a pile of dollar bills & SOiL albums.”

I was beginning to think you were merely a fan of country and maybe even Britney until I read this comment which just blatantly means you are a spotty little 15 year old shit with nothing better to do. Fair enough you might not like the album, but to wish a member of the band dead is not only infantile it’s just downright sick.
Yes, his name is Zoltan…he is Hungarian, do your homework before you start bitching about that which you do not understand!! In fact, just try leaving your bedroom once in a while.

And yes, I am wearing a 5FDP t-shirt right now…
“I’m going to start running an exchange program where anyone I meet wearing a FFDP t-shirt can exchange it for a set of stab wounds and some reconstructive face surgery performed with a size 10 Nike High Top.”

Bring it the fuck on, prick!

Anyways, 5FDP are amazing live. I’m going to see them for a 2nd time at the end of the month with Shadows Fall. Should be a good show.
I was lucky enough to meet and hang out with Matt and Jeremy before their 1st UK show in London in Feb (pure fluke that I was walking past as they were standing outside the venue having a coffee) and I have to say these are 2 of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet. So much respect for other bands too, and really humble.

I don’t understand why this sort of animosity to bands exists….if you don’t like them, why bother wasting your time talking about them? Surely it’s as simple as that??

Where to begin …

Firstly, I suspect you don’t grasp the meaning of the word ‘apparently’. The reason I wrote this review is the same reason I wrote the reviews for Ravage’s latest album, Onslaught’s classic In Search of Sanity etc. I feel I need to point out that there are some excellent albums that shit all over the latest mainstream releases yet they get fuck all promotion. Reviewing something as abysmal as War Is The Answer proves that I’m not the kind of illiterate Roadrunner-felating journalists that writes for NME or Kerrang.

The reason I hate 5FDP so much is that they represent a return of money-grabbing, cock-sucking, generic music that died out for a good reason & should never be allowed to return.

The facial reconstructive surgery offer still stands. Take me up on it & you’ll end up looking like the by-product of an Exodus pit. Then again, I’ve never left my bedroom so I wouldn’t know what that would look like.

This arguement is amazing!

I really can’t see this 5FDP ‘fanboy’ winning. Well, not without his dignity.

I just wanna beat him down and shit in his mouth

@nitrox
“As a fellow musician….”

I garuntee im in a bigger, better band and am twice the musician you are and i only got half way through one of the songs on this album before being filled with the same pure hatred i feel towards bands such as bring me the horizon, attack attack, anything where the singer speaks in a broad english accent.

And to judge the reviewers skills when the pure fact that you like this album means you have no say atall. So take your dick out whatever dudes ass its wedged up, wipe the cum off your lips, stop watching Kerrang and shut the fuck up!

“I just wanna beat him down and shit in his mouth”

this album sucks well bad.and zoltan isnt a real name.

BEST FUCKING REVIEW-EVER

5 Finger DP are a terrible over-rated band.

It’s a shame that metal hammer is mostly responsible for their success. Well, them and all the dribbling fucktards that enjoy listening to the shit. Awesome review man, pretty good for a ‘spotty 15 year old shit’

Cheers man, I just don’t get how so many people love them. Its probably because there’s a generation of people who believe metal starts & ends where Metal Hammer says so. Some of the comments on here are fucking hilarious though. I’m tempted to go to the next 5FDP gig if I can score a press pass. Then I can do a live review & brutalise some retards in the pit.

fuck you guys!

Yes I’m aware how old this is but just had to say….Wow…what a load of shit. You really do give reviewers a bad name. Oh wait, I think I got it now, everyone should like whatever others tell them to like, right? Fuck me….more metal heads having a dig at anyone that likes any other sort of music. Act your age little bitch boys, not even the teenie boppers listening to Beiber complain and bitch as much as some of you ladies. It’s called ‘personal preference’. Get a dictionary and look that shit up.
