January 12

THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
DISTURBED...Asylum (2010)
(CD/DVD, vinyl with bonus CD, Allmusic review)
If you like hard rock/heavy metal you should check out this album. This is a fun album, and it rocks...totally. I love how it starts off with an instrumental track called 'Remnants' which then segues into the title track 'Asylum'. Other highlights: 'Another Way To Die' and 'The Infection'. I recommend it for all hard rock/heavy metal lovers.
