X is One of Their Best

"For reasons I don't understand Malevolent Creation never get the respect they deserve and have always been denied their place within the top tier of classic DM with such bands as Death, Morbid Angel, and Obituary. "Doomsday X" features much of the classic MC lineup and is one of their best efforts. They have updated the classic DM sound with extra aggression and thrash and the results are a brutal 12-track assault. Dave Culross's drumming is perfect as usual and Brett Hoffmann's vocals are awesome. And, of course, Phil Fasciana (of the most talented guitar players around) and John Rubin exhibit furious first rate axe work throughout the CD. I have a hard time comparing old school DM (even updated) with current styles, but within the sub-genre of classic DM "Doomsday X" is definitely a five-star album. I hope this lineup stays together and delivers again with their "XI"."

Old School Death Metal

"Thats how I would describe this CD. I think Malevolent Creation is awesome and this CD was definately worth the buy. Their early death-metal style is cool, and as a musician it is nice to learn from some of the original bands of this genre. After all, not many other death metal bands have 10 albums.
