A new SUFFOCATION is always an event for me, I have been following them since day one, since their very first demo. The last few albums actually left me stiff and cold... Not bad but not overwhelming neither. This new record is somewhat in the same vein but is a little meaner, sharper, there are more hooks and the drums work is astonishing, (thank to Mr. Dave Culross). You can feel that "Bedlam" is probably the more focused album from the band to date. The production is definitely great, so is the artwork... There are amazing, incredible solos on this, which is always a plus for me. I will not bore you to death with 500 words just to describe how amazing the musicianship is... Everybody should know how great these musicians are, but for the record, its over the top technical! This is another solid SUFFOCATION album. So what is wrong? Absolutely nothing... everything is as expected. SUFFOCATION Being SUFFOCATION, just bigger, faster and again, more focused. This is a very good album.
