INFO:

======

Not only did Soilwork put out one of the best albums of 2001 with A Predator's Portrait, but they've turned out to be prolific as well, recording a follow-up within a year's time. Natural Born Chaos finds Soilwork continuing down the same path as last year's effort with a few minor refinements and upgrades along the way. There are a few small differences from one album to the other. The core sound of Soilwork is still intact with the mix of crunchy, melodic Swedish death metal riffing and that cool keyboard undertone still keeping the bottom intact. Singer Björn Strid has apparently worked on his clean vocal delivery and uses it quite a bit more, adding a better melodic strength to the mix. To a degree, the tempos are a touch slower, allowing songs to breathe more, but it does lose that excellent frantic and manic feel of A Predator's Portrait. However, that is not even a quibble since the songs here are very well written and memorable from beginning to end. In fact, Natural Born Chaos suggests what Dark Tranquillity might have accomplished on Haven had they not lost their nerve on the clean singing. Thankfully, Soilwork chose to continue their natural development and not wander off the path or resort to a "back to our roots" release.
