Suicide Silence & Me trying not to be lazy

Ok, first thing's first. I doubt anyone READS this shit, but yeah. I've been slacking, and also since I've decided to expand my music horizons even further, I figured I might as well do something a little extra with it. So, almost every new album I listen to is going to get a review on here, good or bad. And the first band that gets is honor is Suicide Silence. Love 'em or hate 'em, PULL THE TRIGGER BITCH is one of the funniest lines you'll ever here in music. Although, nothing comes close to Mastodon's "Blood and Thunder." But anyway, TO THE REVIEWS!

All of these reviews were off my 2nd time listening to the album. 2nd impressions are generally more reliable than the first.

Suicide Silence - Suicide Silence (2005)

A very solid album. The songs tend to sound the same, but that really shouldn't matter as long as they're good. Deathcore's not exactly famous for being original, but if you're looking for some good stuff, look right here. And lol at SS using an A7x riff. (Although I'm betting Syn took it from someone else.) They put it to better use too. Unholy Confessions is a terrible song.

Suicide Silence - The Cleansing (2007)

Awesome album right here. If you're a fan of Deathcore, or hell, even a Death Metal fan, I recommending giving this at least one listen. Possibly the best Deathcore album I've heard yet, although I can't confirm that is because The Black Dahlia Murder's "Miasma" and As Blood Runs Blacks' "Allegiance." It's definitely an album worth listening to at least once. (And hopefully more, if you like it.)

Suicide Silence - Green Monster (2008)

A 3-song EP. Not much more to say. Although they covered a Deftones song on here, and it's always fun to listen to covers to see what kind of spin a band put's on another band's song.

Suicide Silence - No Time to Bleed (2009)
This was the first Suicide Silence album I listened to. And my first impression was not favorable at all. I found it to be very boring and lack-luster. However, my 2nd impression was much more favorable. I listened to it along with the rest of the discography and it was actually very enjoyable. Probably not better then The Cleansing, but a solid album nonetheless. Don't let first impressions fool you. You might never discover your favorite band if you go solely off of your first impression.

Perfect example for me = The Birthday Massacre. I hated them at first, now I'm dying for their new release next spring.
