a9AdsViewNamespace.Undoubtadly one of the most underrated bands (nonetheless their fan following has always been more than loyal), Voivod has seen more than it's share of problems over the years, but with their new self titled album, it appears that the band is back and better than ever; well, almost anyway.Belanger, the original and best voice Voivod has ever had, and also on board is former Metallica bassit Jason Newsted (my jaw hit the floor when I heard he joined the band), both of whom inject a much needed jolt that Voivod has so desperately needed over the past few years.Voivod vibe, and this is the best the band has sounded in years.My only complaint are the lyrical content; it seems like on a few lines here and there that not much thought was put into them, but this can be easily ignored by just focusing on the headbanging musicianship.It's great to see Snake back, and Newsted is a surprisingly welcome addition, now let's hope that this is the lineup that takes the band to the heights that they deserve to be at.Was this review helpful to you?Yes Jason Newsted is the new bass player in Voivod...Voivod has always been an extremely creative band and still is!Snake back on vocals, voivod continues where it stopped with the outer limits(Not that Negatron or Phobos were bad, just more casual).The only bad point would be the mix of the voice, it feels like Snake didn't yell loud enough and they push the voice at the mix, but after a couple of listenings you get use to it.Let's hope Jasonic will bring thousands of new fans to voivod, they deserve it!Was this review helpful to you?Eric Forrest left Voivod in 2001 which was a good thing.Voivod disbanded for a shiort period of time.Piggy and Away met with Snake again and reformed Voivod.Snake returned to the band.Jason Newstead is a true Voivodian and was a fan of the band's earlier work.Jason Newstead's bass technique is a lot better than Eric Forrest, but just as good as Blacky's.Jason knows almost every old Voivod songs before the Eric Forrest era and can play them perfectly.When true Voivodians learned that Snake had returned to the band, this has made thousands of true Voivodians happy.The band has resurrected their old sounds the way Voivod is supposed to sound like.This album is a very good post Eric Forrest era album.Snake is the TRUE voice of Voivod!Piggy, Jasonic and Away composed the music together with the band's original sound which had made the true Voivodians extremely happy.Voivod went on a few club tours following the release of this album.Then they headlined the Ozzfest in 2002 on second stage.Note: Jason Newstead played bass for BOTH Voivod and Ozzy Osbourne during Ozzfest '02.Following the tour, Voivod returned to the studio to work on their forthcoming album.It was a tragedy that Piggy passed away with colon cancer on August 25, 2005.He could play anything on his guitar by Rush, Yes, and etc.He is gone, but will not be forgotten.Voivod is polishing up their forthcoming album with Piggy's guitar parts and will release it which Piggy would be proud of.Was this review helpful to you?Where are the lead guitar riffs?Published on October 8, 2005 by Tommy E.Denis "Piggy" D'Amour
Sometime in August, Voivod guitarist Denis D'Amour (a.Piggy) fell ill to cancer.Later, on August 26th, he succumbed to his illness.This new "Voivod" is merely a hollow shell of the once mighty thrash band from the mid 80's.Published on August 3, 2005 by J.This CD is good and has many unique ideas but it's not the Voivod we've come to know, and possibly love.Back in 1987, when I was 16, I was lying in the grass on the lawn outside my parent's house, listening to Voivod's 'Killing Technology' on my walkman.It takes a few listens, but!Hadn't listened to Voivod for quite a while, but was really looking forward to it, fondly remembering...What should have followed The Outer Limits.When Belanger left Voivod, so did I.When he came back, so did I.Published on March 7, 2005 by Mr.Voivod, progressive, hard, heavy , innovative, Voivod is pretty much different to other bands with that futurist concept in visual and musical terms , topics that goes from aliens...See all 46 customer reviews...ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE !Know the essential Voivod albums: A guide by Stanton K.For more about music, check out our blog, Amazon Earworm, and our monthly newsletters, Amazon Delivers.Using your checking account at Amazon.Would you like to update product info or give feedback on images?Please note that we are unable to respond directly to all feedback submitted via this form, but we'll ask you to sign in so we can contact you if needed.Visit our Help department. |
