Some Guy here once more with something that I know I've been waiting awhile for. It's about time an album comes along that is so damned good it makes me squee like a girl when I first listened to it. The squeeing continued for many more listens and I still find myself squeeing about how brilliant this album is.
Diablo Swing Orchestra impressed me when I first heard the Butcher's Ballroom sometime last year. They were one of the first avant garde metal bands I'd listened to and have been one of my favorites since. Sing Along Songs for the Damned and Delirious is everything I loved about the Butcher's Ballroom and then some. It's like expecting a delicious cupcake, but then when you taste this cupcake you discover instead of frosting it is ice cream and the center is filled with fudge. With that fattening yet delicious simile out of out of the way, we can get to some content.
Actually just skip to the download link. I am not even joking I do not want you to read this little review. You already know what it's going to say, this album is pure brilliance. A delicious mixture of great guitar riffs and horns with soaring female vocals and some pretty damned good male vocals now. That's one of the biggest differences between this album and The Butcher's Ballroom. The male vocals add a whole other level to this and overall make things considerably more interesting. Furthermore there seems to be a bit more frequent usage of a trumpet on many songs. Drumming is also quite awesome at times.
All in all it's just a brilliant album. You should download this immediately. When have I ever steered you wrong?
