│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Well, I have to say that this album was the ║ │
│║ first chance I got to hear Skullview and it ║ │
│║ doesn't dissapoint. I actually received this ║ │
│║ from Dean at the first Classic Eighties ║ │
│║ Metalfest back in 2001 right after they found ║ │
│║ out that they weren't going to be able to play ║ │
│║ that night. Needless to say, after all I had ║ │
│║ heard about them and how much I was looking ║ │
│║ forward to seeing them play live, I was pissed. ║ │
│║ On the other hand, I was happy to have received ║ │
│║ this CD from Dean himself and was even happier ║ │
│║ that I had their new album in my hands that I ║ │
│║ could blast in my car on my way home from the ║ │
│║ show. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Since the first time I heard this, I've caught ║ │
│║ up on all of Skullview's material and I have to ║ │
│║ say that Consequences of Failure is indeed my ║ │
│║ favorite. There isn't one dull moment on this ║ │
│║ great album. The opening track 'Time For ║ │
│║ Violence' is a fast and furious piece of metal. ║ │
│║ "Earthquake" Quimby's vocals throughout the song ║ │
│║ are ear-piercing to say the least. The next ║ │
│║ track 'Skullview (Warrior)' is my personal ║ │
│║ favorite on the album. The energy and galloping ║ │
│║ riffs on this track are tremendous. There are ║ │
│║ even a few songs on here that would be ║ │
│║ considered epic in nature. The next song 'Palace ║ │
│║ Of The Boundless Cold' and 'Seek The Old Man For ║ │
│║ Knowledge' are perfect examples of this. On ║ │
│║ these tracks, Skullview are able to back off a ║ │
│║ bit and pull you in with some great storylines ║ │
│║ and fantasy-inspired guitar leads. The last ║ │
│║ track is a great cover of 'Digital Bitch' off of ║ │
│║ Black Sabbath's classic 1983 album 'Born Again'. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ There isn't really alot to say here other than ║ │
│║ this is a great American Power Metal classic. ║ │
│║ Every song they have written has became an ║ │
│║ instant favorite of mine. Unfortunately, since ║ │
│║ the release of this album, vocalist "Earthquake" ║ │
│║ Quimby, is no longer with the group. New ║ │
│║ vocalist Eric Flowers does however show alot of ║ │
│║ promise with the band and I'm eagerly looking ║ │
│║ forward to hearing their next full length. Call ║ │
│║ them Heavy Metal, Classic Metal, Power Metal, ║ │
│║ True Metal or whatever else you want. One thing ║ │
│║ is for sure, fans of classic metal sounding ║ │
│║ bands such as Judas Priest, Saxon, Exciter or ║ │
│║ Accept should pick this up as soon as possible ║ │
│║ and experience one of America's greatest (and ║ │
│║ often overlooked) pure metal band. ║ │
