Five Finger Death Punch are without a doubt one
of the most promising rock bands in the world
today, they caused a bit of a stir with their
debut album ‘The Way Of The Fist’
back in 2007 but it was there 2009 release ‘War
Is The Answer’ which pushed them closer
to their goal of being a big selling rock band
with the album clocking up gold status in America
alone in no time at all.
The band were last seen in the UK during the Download
Festival in 2010 when they caused controversy
for encouraging as many fans to jump the barriers
and go against all the security’s wishes
to join them on stage which let to their set being
cut short and ever since then everyone has been
itching for some more FFDP live dates or new music.
While the wait is over as their third studio album
is finished and due for release on the 10th October
and luckily for everyone who can’t wait
until then the band have just unleashed their
brand new single ‘Under And Over It’
and my god it is one hell of a tub-thumper which
features all the classic FFDP elements that we
have come to love.
‘Under and Over It’ kicks off with
a massive instrumental punch and in general the
song kicks proper arse in the way that the instrumental
work is so fast paced and heavy yet the vocals
change from melodic to raw shouts throughout the
song with Ivan Moody on top form when he cusses
with angry lyrics like “Did you hear the
one about me giving a shit? Cause if I ever did
I don't remember it” and also “Do
I care if you hate me? Do you wanna know the truth?C'est
la vie... adiós... good riddance... fuck
you!”, which I am sure a lot of people can
relate to and will cause mayhem to in future FFDP
mosh pits.
After hearing ‘Under And Over It’
I bet the 10th October could not come soon enough
for FFDP fans as these guys seem to go from strength
to strength and get bigger and better with each
and every release and I have a feeling that album
number three is going to take them on a massive
successful journey.
5/5
