After their banging 2007 debut, it’s good to see that Kingdom Of Sorrow wasn’t a one-time deal for Hatebreed’s Jamey Jasta and Crowbar/Down’s Kirk Windstein. “Behind The Blackest Tears” is the name of the new album and it’s a matter of more of the same. Which in case of Kingdom Of Sorrow is definitely not a bad thing. Windstein cranks out some more kickass sludgy riffs and Jasta fucks shit up with his typical hardcore barks. Basically Kingdom Of Sorrow sounds exactly like what you’d expect from a collaboration between these two.
Okay, so some of the songs on here are a bit more melodic and accessible than before and the surprise has already worn off. I’ll give you that. But if you’re looking for some solid headbanging material, then you’ll be all set with “Behing The Blackest Tears” as long as you don’t go in expecting a metal classic.
Score: 7.5 out of 10
