Peace Through power

“Tiberium. The key to limitless wealth and power. The first shards fell to Earth in 1995, and many believed it would change humanity forever. It did.

The Tiberium Wars nearly reduced civilization to ashes. Behind every atrocity stood one man: Kane, the self-proclaimed messiah of the fanatical Brotherhood of Nod. His ambition to control Tiberium was only checked by the Global Defense Initiative (GDI), a military organization sworn to uphold the ideals of freedom, peace, and security. But Tiberium was a trap. It rapidly spread across the world, more virulent and deadly than any plague. By 2062, GDI scientists estimated that Earth would be uninhabitable in less than a decade.

Then Kane resurfaced… and offered a truce.

Fifteen years later, the GDI/NOD alliance remains intact. Their joint project, the Tiberium Control Network (TCN), halted the slide towards extinction and now safely harnesses the toxic mineral to help rebuild Earths devastated ecosystem. As the TCN nears completion, humanity appears to be on the brink of a new Golden Age.

But many on both sides eagerly wait for the day when Kane betrays the GDI. And some aren’t waiting anymore.”

Battlefield Moments Episode 1

The Black Dahlia Murder – Deflorate

Deflorate is the fourth trashing release from the melodic death metal group The Black Dahlia Murder.  Deflorate sees the songwriting of band leader and rhythm guitarist Brian Eschbach at its most developed and refined state ever. The Black Dahlia Murder still maintains their Swedish influenced trash and black metal with its blasting of drums and the overall sound.

Now to the review – I’m quite a big fan of The Black Dahlia Murder, and their sound, as I initially got into their music from their previous album Nocturnal which was released in 2007. But this is easily their best work to date. From the very first song Black Valor, you are pulled into something amazing (if this is your genre of music that is ), it almost feels like you are embarking on a journey of some sorts as it starts playing, and after just over 3 min you are welcomed by probably one of the better known songs from the album, Necropolis, which is easily one of my favourites on the album (it also has an awesome music video that can be viewed on youtube), along with track 10 I Will Return, which some of you might remember from my Battlefield 2 movie that I made in 2009.

So if blasting drums, hardcore vocals and ripping guitars and solos is your thing then give The Black Dahlia Murder a listen. You won’t be disappointed.
