Job for a Cowboy – ‘Genesis’ CD

Job for a Cowboy’s third studio album, ‘Genesis,’ was released in 2009 and marked a significant change in the band’s sound. After gaining fame with their 2006 ‘Doom’ EP, the band switched from deathcore to a more technical and brutal death metal sound. With ‘Genesis,’ the band managed to capture the perfect mixture of technicality and brutality, while also adding more melody and solos.

The production of this album is top-notch, with every instrument and vocal track being clear and well-defined. The guitar work is outstanding, with Bobby Koelble and Ravi Bhadriraju providing a great mix of riffs and solos throughout the album. The bass work is also impressive, with Brent Riggs being able to keep up with the guitarists and show off his own style. The drumming is provided by former drummer Elliot Sellers, and he does an incredible job of keeping the music tight and providing the perfect atmosphere for each song. The vocals are provided by Jonny Davy and are mostly mid-level growls, with some higher-pitched screams thrown in for good measure. The lyrics are interesting and complex, focusing on themes of gore and esotericism.

Overall, Job for a Cowboy’s ‘Genesis’ album is an excellent example of modern death metal. It is an intense and brutal album that is sure to satisfy any fan of extreme metal.

For those looking to give death metal a try, this album is a great place to start.
