![]() ![]() The next track is Our Own Grave which is another song that falls in line with the general "hateful" motif of the album. The guitarists Ben Orum and Caysen Russo (who was the guitarist at the time, now in Oblige) sign off with a sludgy array of chugs and taps while Betit screams "You're laid to rest!" This never ceases to chill the nerves up my spine. ![]() Bassist Mike "worst dude" Tiner delivers a tapping sweep that shines, even with the quick drums and guitar dominating the song. Then by the end of the song each guitarist has one of their shining moments. Laid to Rest starts off with a rapid picking riff with a constant bass drum roll throughout the first verse. These two are a couple of my favorites from the record. The next two tracks are Laid to Rest and Our Own Grave. The song peaks about at about 1:34 with an incredible breakdown, then lets you off with a tasteful repeat of the riff from the beginning. Matt Kuykendall is beating the hell out of the snare and bass in synchronous with the guitars. Craig Betit, their original vocalist, is carrying the song with a pretty impressive display of range from deep growls to a menacing high scream that pierces the ears. While not pushing the over-the-top technicality on you, every instrument in this song seems to have a standout part. ![]() The first track is Deconstruction which is a seemingly endless barrage of guttural vocals and blast beats. Its a politically and emotionally driven outcry crammed into 8 fierce tracks. All Shall Perish doesn't attempt to impress anyone but themselves with this release.

During the time of its original 2001 release on Amputated Vein the members were between the ages of 17-23. This album packs a certain punch that few CD's can seem to ever deliver. The debut CD of pretty much any band is almost always their most heartfelt. Its somewhat bizarre that when a band more or less "blows up" in their genre, so few followers decide to go back and enjoy their early stuff. We are looking to have it out by next August/September.Review Summary: All Shall Perish delivers with their hateful, malicious, and vengeful debut.
