Walls Of Jericho - With Devils Amongst Us All
There are not many hardcore bands that are fronted by a woman. To be honest I just can think of one, Walls Of Jericho. But if we may believe Candace Kucsulain she wasn’t hired for the job because she had tits. On the third album of Walls Of Jericho called With Devils Amongst Us All she proves again she was right.
The album starts with ‘A Trigger Full Of Promises’ ,which is also the first single of With Devils Amongst Us All, and boy what a way to start an album. With this song Walls Of Jericho immediately grabs you by the throat and won’t let go until you reach the end of the album.
Where All Hail The Dead was mainly very aggressive, With Devils Amongst Us All sometimes is quite melodic. The cause of this is probably the first time use of a producer. Ben Schigel (Ringworm, Chimaira, Zao) was the man to do the job and he gave Walls Of Jericho that extra push to create this album.
In the past Walls Of Jericho did an acoustic song on an album, this time they surprise everybody with the song ‘No Saving Me’ which is some kind of ballad. In this song Candace Kucsulain shows a different side of her voice and easily could give Walls Of Jericho some airplay. Of course gaining airplay isn’t the main idea behind the song, they just wanted to do something that would drop some jaws to the floor. Well they succeeded!!
The use of a producer has turned out very well for Walls Of Jericho, their sound is well balanced. Of course there will be some critics saying they didn’t stay true to their sound, but I believe Walls Of Jericho has made a great step forward and will also be attractive for several metalheads. To me it’s obvious I have another great album to add to my yearlist of 2006.
