nuclear blast: job for a cowboy

i ordered this one at nuclear blast pre-order.
job for a cowboy - demonocracy
after their first release - doom ep - they were the next big thing and together with suicide silence the inventors of the "deathcore" genre. but just with their first full length album "genisis" they left this genre, now playing pretty fast, pretty techincal and pretty good death metal without breakdown parts and pig squeals. the second album "ruination" however was a quite faceless album to me. not one song, except the last one, that really stuck in my mind.
but with the "make-it-or-break-it-record" (the third) jfac definitely made it! it's challenging to listen to but it's worth it. crazy drumming, awesome guitar work plus pretty dark melodies and every song sounding very mature.
furthermore you get an awesome vinyl presentation. gatefold sleeve + poster + printed dust sleeves + clear light blue vinyl + doom ep and gloom ep on the second lp. metal blade records.
