Bury the fuckin' dead! Bury the fuckin'
dead!
If you're new to Bury Your Dead, then you're in for a smack
in the goddamn face. This is some riff-heavy, breakdown-havin'-
hardcore metal for 2005. Lying somewhere between Pantera
and Hatebreed in the musical spectrum, Cover Your Tracks is intense, heavy and will have you banging your head and
will send hardcore kids into a moshpit frenzy. Trust me, I've
seen them live and the hardcore slam dancing was a sight to
see.
The songs are short and hit you hard from start to finish.
But what sets the band apart from countless other hardcore
acts are their vicious breakdowns. You know those parts of Vulgar Display of Power where the band breaks it
down and you know it’s coming? Imagine a whole album
full of this, and you'd come close to Cover Your Tracks.
The mean, angry vocals are spit and shouted in a manner similar
to Phil Anselmo and Corey Taylor of Slipknot.
One really interesting thing here is the tracklisting. Tom
Cruise movies? Yep, every song is a title of a Tom Cruise
film. Why? Who knows? I don't see a reason for it,
but why the hell not?
Cover Your Tracks is a chunky, rhythm-heavy hardcore
album that is brutal from start to finish. The production
on the disc is razor sharp. Look for Bury Your Dead to become
the new leaders of the hardcore scene. Metal fans, hardcore
fans—whichever one you are—pick this disc up.
You won’t be disappointed.
