as the palaces burn

• lamb of god'ın uzuun zamandır dinlediğim albümler arasında en mükemmellerinden biri diyebileceğim son albümü. mükemmel prodüksiyon, aşmış davullar, yeni bir brutal vokal yıldızının doğuşu belki de; randy blythe.
  bulunabilecek en agresif ritmler, yapılabilecek en nefret dolu vokallerle birleşmiş, üstüne adam döver gibi çalınan adamın suratında patlayan aşmış davullar, sololar. ne denilebilir ki? ben susayım, lamb of god konuşsun. bir de klasik dergi incelemelerinin son cümlesini ekleyelim hatta tam olsun; amerikan death metali hiç bu kadar güzel olmamıştı.
  
  albüme ismini veren parçanın sözleri;
  
  the fiends have gagged a generation of pacified fools
  bound by our greed a nation enslaved as corporate tools.
  arise and race the legacy of their lies
  to realize that this in itself is an ascension
  towards the day we revolt.
  as the seeds you've cast away take hold
  war will be born.
  rejoice, the age of the fall has begun
  we'll dance as the palaces burn.
  a shot gun blast into the face of deceit
  you'll gain your just reward.
  we'll not rest until the purge is complete
  you will reap what you've sown.
  my redemption lies in your demise.
  in such a world as this does one dare to think for himself?
  the paradox of power and peace will destroy itself
  to know the truth and live in fear of no man.
  to realize that this in itself is an ascension
  toward the day we revolt.
  as the seeds you've cast away take hold
  war will be born.
  rejoice, the age of the fall has begun
  we'll dance as the palaces burn.
  my redemption lies in your demise.
  rejoice, the age of the fall has begun.
  we'll dance as the palaces burn.
