Every Time I Die goes the tried and true route with their fourth full-length outing, refining the skull-searing attack unleashed on previous affairs such as 2005’s Gutter Phenomenon and 2001’s Last Night in Town. There are no art-rock pretensions, no ironic covers of any classic ‘80s pop hits, nor anything less than uncompromising barbarism. For full effect, visit the boogie-laden "Leatherneck," the speedy "Rebel Without Applause," or "Buffalo Gals" (with its shades of AC/DC on a steady diet of raw meat). Not a moment is wasted on this 36-minute blast of gut-wrenching intensity. Provided, of course, that you like your music smothered in passion and American-style testosterone. --Jedd Beaudoin
