ALBUM REVIEW: Suicide Silence – Remember… You Must Die
I have one question for the Suicide Silence lads. Why is it that they are perfectly content to settle on terrible studio production and mix?

You know the one, God’s Hate (Closed Casket Activities) featuring the track ‘God’s Hate.’ And yes, that was a record store joke. If you don’t know what that means, ask your parents. It’s fitting too considering that the stuff on God’s Hate recalls an era before streaming or even iPods and Zunes (okay, really ask your parents).
