five finger death punch got your six album download Got Your Six [Deluxe] Five Finger Death Punch have proven one of the most popular alt-metal bands, with three gold records, enviable radio play, and sell-out tours. Their instantly recognizable sound is comprised of equal parts melodic and meaty guitar riffs, fat vamps, catchy hooks, tight, flashy solos, and hard- grooving bass and drums. Ivan Moody's half-sung/half-growled -- always angry -- vocals rage over the top. Got Your Six is no different. (The thinking seems to be, "If it ain't broke, milk it.") Recorded by Kevin Churko, it's a tad slicker than its predecessors. The album's biggest setback isn't behind the board, though, it's but behind the mike. Moody's lyrics are so juvenile and clunky they distract from the better songs. First single "Jekyll & Hyde" has him trying to rap the verses in old-school ('80s) style. Zoltan Bathory's chugging riff and Jason Hook's brief, powerful solo can't rescue it. The title track intros with soft melodic guitar then give way to a crunchy, heavy riff, unruly bass, cracking snare, and kick drum. Meanwhile, Moody growls/sings about what a loyal eternal bad ass he is, talks during the breakdown, and mars an otherwise fine song. The first line in "This Ain't My Last Dance," "I'm the apocalypse/with a fat lip. " is so ridiculous, the track is impossible to take seriously. "No Sudden Moment" is the heaviest thing here, with a blasting riff, thundering double-kick drum, and satisfying guitar breaks, but the dumb singalong chorus ("Click clack/Reload/Click clack/Unload") diffuses the impact. "Question Everything" -- with the least offensive lyrics here -- contains a throbbing bassline and flamenco-style guitar breakdown. Set-closer "Boots & Blood" commences with "Think of one word to change the world/And now put it into action/Fuuuuuuuuck!" That last word becomes a mantra, used in almost every line in this "anthem" and the generic riff doesn't help. Moody's awful writing isn't the only problem on Got Your Six, just the biggest one. As a whole, the album doesn't contain the hunger, heaviness, or energy earlier records did. It's bigger sonically, but less cohesive. It goes by in a blur, with little memorable enough to warrant repeated listening. Five finger death punch got your six album download. Add to Custom List. Add to My Collection. AllMusic Rating.

The platinum-selling arena rockers' eighth studio effort -- and first to feature new drummer Charlie Engen -- is aptly named. Puns aside, F8 also happens to be the function key used to access the Windows recovery system, which dovetails nicely with Five Finger Death Punch wildman Ivan Moody, who underwent his own bit of rehabilitation in 2017. Having successfully sworn off the booze, Moody and company have crafted a baseline-angst bonanza that rolls in with the subtlety of a Michael Bay action sequence and never looks back. Produced with sizable modern rock radio heft by longtime collaborator Kevin Churko (Ozzy Osbourne, Disturbed), the overlong set (16 tracks if you count the bonus cuts) commences with a bit of orchestral bombast before unleashing a pair of groove-laden stadium bangers ("Inside Out" and "Full Circle") that are among the heaviest of the band's career. The punishing "Scar Tissue" and "This Is War" follow suit, with the poppy "A Little Bit Off" and the heartfelt closer "Brighter Side of Grey" doing their due diligence as palate cleansers. Moody's vocals have never sounded better, even if the material tends to play it safe -- F8 ticks off all of the FFDP boxes, and to be fair, moves at a steady clip, with only two tracks clocking in over four minutes. Love them or hate them, Five Finger Death Punch are a band who know their product and have become ruthlessly efficient at manufacturing it. Five Finger Death Punch Got Your Six Download.
