Arise and Ruin - The Final Dawn
Victory Records

The Final Dawn definitely is high on the list of the latest good metal albums I have heard recently. Arise and Ruin not being a name I have heard before, I am now convinced that Victory Records still has good Metal bands putting out good Metal albums. The variation on the genre that AR has achieved is not an unheard of issue. I definitely enjoyed listening to this album, but there were a few things that would have made it a little better for me. One such issue is if the lack of more breakdowns such as the one in the tracks “End of the Road” and “Always the Same”. Although not every Metal band has a bunch of breakdowns, I believe that more in that same style would have made this record score even higher in my books. Overall, I really enjoyed this album and I believe it is a good album for any metalhead out there to pick up. I can’t wait to see what AR comes out with next album!
