- Long Live Kalmah
Just buy all Kalmah albums, it's just totally worth it if ur into melodic death metal w/ keyboards. They are AMAZING!!! My fav is their 3rd album called SWAMPSONG!

- Black metal - with a Dave Mustane feel.
This is most likely the best black metal CD I have ever heard. This band seems very unheard of, and if you stumble across them, even if you aren't into black metal, listen to them! This CD is varied, hard hitting, and emotional.There is a Megadeth cover at the end - which I found to be very cool, becuase Megadeth rules. The songs shift in mood, and style - some very dark, in a melencoly and somber way, some very bittersweet, and one in particular (My Nation) with a heavy metal/power metal feel. I love it, and if you like metal, you will too.
- Flawless
This album is 175% flawless. Seriously, if you are even remotely into metal then this album should be in your collection. From its technicality to its catchy as hell hooks. When I'm not listening to this album, I'm thinking about listening to it.
- great!!
This is simply KALMAH's best release yet. out of the other two albums, this is the only one i always listen to.
the brothers KOKKO compliment eachother very well on guitar. i think on this album they went to a more melodic and more diverse writing style.
even though this is KALMAH's second release, it is way better thatn their first and last release. the song that shines out on this disc is KILL THE IDEALIST which has a very sick and melodic solo.
some people say they sound jus like COB, but if u have good musical ears, you can totally tell a big difference in their music.
the guitars fill this album with very good fast as hell riffs. the drums totally kick ass and goes very well with the music. the keyboards give KALMAH that melodic edge without making them sound whimpy and have a lot of beautiful passages. the vocals are decent, nothing too extraordinary but they get the job done.
if you want to get into this band, i suggest you get this album first, SWAMPLORD and SWAMPSONG are good but nothing like THEY WILL RETURN. this album is a must have.
im sure you will enjoy!!

- I've heard this before...
I have heard this music somewhere before... oh yes, I remember now... on every Children Of Bodom CD. They are extremely similar to COB. I have even heard people go so far as to call these guys a rip-off of COB. This very well may be true, but who cares if they are? This is a very good CD. Its very hard to find the perfect CD where every track is incredible. This is on of those CDs where it becomes very close to that level of perfection. Because even some of the greatest records of all time (Works like 'Damage Done' and 'Hatebreeder' and 'Colony' come to mind) have their flaws. But this is a very well played record with an incredible sound. If you don't have this record, I think it's time to go out and buy it. This is a masterpiece and you're missing out on it.
