Description:

"Violence begins to mend what was broken." Boy, how he does it. Choosing not to borrow the pinky ring flash of the Underworld and but rather good old fashioned eye for eye justice, singer Randy Blythe croaks savagely though "Omerta." Backed by a healthy dose of lumbering menace, the song is sung as if by vengeance itself. Violence begetting violence is a constant on this album, both in music and word; in both personal trial and world politics. Lamb of God have show their 80's thrash roots on Ashes of the Wake by featuring solos from both Testament and Megadeth. The band plows forward taking from the new, the old, and adding their own stamp--heavy, angry, and political. --Daniel Mahon

3Good Album, eh on the DualDisc  Mar 03, 2006
Don't get me wrong, I think that this album totally kicks ass. And I never had any problems playing the CD side of the DualDisc. I never tried it in 5.1, so I don't know if it cuts out like the other reviewers mention, but I do know that the videos included are nothing new. If you have their DVD Terror and Hubris, then you have absolutely no reason to buy the DualDisc. In fact, if you've even seen Terror and Hubris, then you really won't find the need to ever watch the DVD side. There's a music video on there too, but it's nothing particularly awesome. And plus this version is like 8 bucks more than the regular version. With the money you save you can almost buy the Killadelphia DVD, which is most likely way cooler than the video on this.

1Music is worth 5 stars but...  Jan 12, 2006
I cannot make the CD side of this disc play for anything. The DVD side works great, but I wish to listen to the music in something other than a DVD player.

15 stars for album, 0 for DualDisc  Jul 28, 2005
If you already own the album, good. Look no further then. It's not worth it to get a DualDisc. The idea of a double-sided cd doesn't sound very promising, and from I read, not very good either. If it was a cd/dvd combo where there were two separate discs, you've got something different, but both on one disc? Forget it, pass on this. Lamb Of God's a good band with a great third album, but this ain't worth it.

2Butchered and Mauled  Apr 08, 2005
Please don't buy this thing. The CD side is fine, but the DVD side is a waste of money. The album itself is good, so just buy the CD. The 5.1 mix is crap. The vocals are really loud and stuck in the center speaker. The guitars aren't loud enough, the cymbals'll make your ears bleed and are too loud, and the rears aren't used nearly enough for music this aggressive. Worst of all, the songs are changed! "Break You"'s vocals keep speeding up and slowing down, changing pitch. Some songs have a few words removed (not cuss words), and sound effects changed. In "Now You've Got Something to Die For" everything goes silent towards the end all of a sudden, and then comes back just as suddenly, skipping a few seconds of the song. The CD side is identical to the original as is the DVD stereo, which is only 48KHz/16bit resolution (CD is 44.1/16) so it doesn't sound much better (it actually sounds worse due to a top range volume cut that Sony applies to all of its DualDisc's DVD stereo).
