If you don’t know who Demi Lovato is, she stars in the Disney show “Sonny with a Chance“, and was in the movie “Camp Rock“. She’s sweet, she’s perky… she digs Job for a Cowboy, Abigail Williams and Maylene and the Sons of Disaster. At 3:10, she tells Jimmy Fallon who he should book on his show.

Time Waits For No Slave comes out on February 10th on Century Media. I’ve had a chance to listen to the album and it’s a great, modern Napalm Death album. A quick review and tour dates after the fold.

Time Waits For No Slave is a great example of the Grindcore genre. Right from the beginning with Strongarm, it has that punk element to it that makes grindcore what it is. Fast and relentless, yet structured. On The Brink Of Extinction is a great chugging-riffed, plus triplets that should have the pits ablaze and shows the new crowd that you don’t have to have hammer on taps and pulls off every two seconds to make a modern “extreme metal” song. The title track, Time Waits For No Slave has a really cool lead riff that continues throughout most of the song and is easy to get hooked on with Barney’s mouth full of marbles vocals and semi-clean chorus (NOT like a metalcore clean vocal). With 28 years and 14 albums, these guys can still churn out the metal fury and show the new generation of deah/metalcore that THIS is how you make a metal album that will be remembered next year. I don’t have many Napalm Death albums, but this is surely bringing me back to the ones I have (Diatribes, Inside And Torn Apart and Utopia Banished).

Napalm Death Confirmed Tour Dates

• 4/11 – Blender Theater in New York, NY 
• 4/17 – New England Metalcore Festival in Worcester, MA
• 4/24 -Volume 11 Tavern in Raleigh, NC
• 5/3 -  Key Club in L.A. CA
• 5/6 -  Studio Seven in Seattle, WA

• 1/31 – The Attic – Dayton, OH
• 2/1 – The Jukebox – Rochester, NY

On CD

• Beneath The Massacre: Dystopia on Prosthetic Records. (I just reviewed this yesterday. Some good stuff if you like a lot of melodic, treble string work in your death metal.)
• Carcass: Reek Of Putrefaction CD/DVD. (As I said yesterday, if you’re a Carcass fan then you will want to add this to your collection.)
• Cradle Of Filth: Godspeed On The Devil’s Thunder on Roadrunner. (If you read the title slower it says “God’s Peed On The Devil’s Thunder”)
• Burning The Masses: Mind Control on Mediaskare
• Machine Head: The Blackening Special Edition (I hate late release special editions, but this one seems like a must-have)
• Hatebreed: For The Lions on Koch. (All Covers album)
• Enslaved: Vertabrae on NUclear Blast
• Bloodbath: The Fathomless Mastery on Peaceville. (A must-have if you’re a fan of Bloodbath or Opeth.)
• Abigail Williams: In The Shadows Of A Thousand Suns. (Is that even possible?)

On DVD

• Mushroomhead Vol. 2 (This is an awesome DVD with a lot of tour and backstage footage)
