(17 Customer Reviews)
On its third studio outing, the Christian band Demon Hunter further hones its highly aggressive heavy-metal sound. While the group's spiritual leanings may not be immediately apparent amidst the crushing guitars, fierce rhythms, and alternately raspy and melodic vocals, Demon Hunter's faith is present on the entire album, most notably the surging "Not I" and the potent "Fire to My Soul."
All tracks have been digitally mastered using 24-bit technology.
Additional personnel: Aaron Sprinkle (keyboards, programming).

Demon Hunter Triptych Songs Triptych Music Review Average Rating: (4.6 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews This CD Kicks Ass This CD just is unbelievably good-no question this is the best Demon Hunter CD ever-the vocals are super, it's heavy and it's just amazing! Buy IT!. Submitted by davidgrovsky (Wallingford, CT, USA)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Thier best yet With an exception of an couple of average songs this album is awsome. This album lacks any generic sound and the band's lineup seems more solid than ever.Guitars were more technical and they even decided to throw some solos in there as well. The drummer did a great job in following Jesse's footsteps and also was very technical and unique in his own way. Production was great too. Favorite songs are Not I, Fire to my Soul, Soldier Song, and 1000 Apologies. Very solid album I highly recommend it. Submitted by Tainted (Sardinia)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Excellent The Triptych is one amazing album. While my favorite album from the band is still Summer of Darkness, this album comes in a very close second. "Undying" is probably the most intriguing song on the album. At first, I was a little uncertain about the content of the album when I found out there were more songs with no growling than on SoD. But those songs are very well done and do not take away from the album at all. My other favorites are "Relentless Intolerance", "The Soldier's Song" and the well-done cover of Prong's "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck". Overall, this was an awesome album that no DH fan should be without. Rock on DH! Submitted by I Lay Sleepless in My Grave (Somewhere, World, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

Wow... Just.. Wow. When I heard Not I for the first time I was amazed. After listening to this album, it's apparent that Demon Hunter has come a long way, and this album blows the previous two out of the water. My favorites are: Not I, Undying, Deteriorate, The Soldier's Song, Fire To My Soul, One Thousand Apologies, and The Science Of Lies. That may be a lot, but I couldn't choose a favorite between those songs. They're all amazing. Submitted by Joe Klauza (Michigan, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

Triptych album
$6.39 This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this ...
| | Demon Hunter CD (2002)
Triptych CD music
$13.49 When an artist wants to be truly harsh and blistering, density can be a highly effective tool. In avant-garde jazz, density is the thing that makes Charles Gayle, Albert Ayler, and post-1964 John Coltrane much harsher than AACM icons like Anthony Braxton and Roscoe Mitchell -- and in metal, density is what gives Slayer's God Hates Us All a claustrophobic quality that you don't get from the old-school fantasy metal of Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Ronnie James Dio, and Black Sabbath. Density is a big part of what Demon Hunter does on this self-titled debut album; when the alternative metal band is in the mood for maximum brutality, it pummels the listener with a dense, noisy, highly abrasive metal/punk assault. But harshness is only part of what Demon Hunter does on this CD. While some alterna-metal bands like to be punishing 100 percent of the time, Demon Hunter's debut is an album of contrasts -- an album in which moments of intense brutality are followed by hauntingly melodic passages. One minute, Demon Hunter is mercilessly beating listeners into submission; the next minute, it provides ...
| | All That Remains This Darkened Heart CD (2004)
Triptych music CDs
$9.85 Judging from just the first song on This Darkened Heart, one is tempted to immediately rank All That Remains among the top tier of current Swedish-influenced American hardcore-metal bands (and there are a lot of them). The dual-guitar interplay of Oli Herbert and Mike Martin is intricate and impressive, and their classically tinged riff-writing yields at least a slight distinction from their many At the Gates-influenced contemporaries. However, as early as the second track -- and again on several of the others -- they reveal their downfall in attempting to incorporate passages of melodic singing. It's a downfall they share with plenty of other bands in this genre. It would be a great idea to try this technique if these bands could pull it off tastefully, but All That Remains, like many of their counterparts, do not do so. The cleanly sung breakdowns on "Focus Shall Not Fail," "Tattered on My Sleeve," and the title track feel forced and are at times cringe inducing, sounding vaguely like bad-'80s radio rock (think late Journey). The other problem is that, as the album wears on, the experienced listener can't help but get the feeling that he or she has heard many of these riffs before -- if not note for note, then close enough that it doesn't ...
| | Demon Hunter Summer Of Darkness CD (2004)
Triptych songs
$12.29 Stylistically, Demon Hunter's second album Summer of Darkness is quite similar to the alternative metal band's self-titled debut album of 2002; the headbangers still get their points across with an effective combination of haunting, intricate melodies and sledgehammer brutality. The comparisons that were valid in 2002 are just as valid on this 2004 release -- comparisons that range from Slipknot, Nothingface, and Pantera to Sepultura and Slayer. But this time, Demon Hunter's writing is slightly more consistent -- not perfect, but slightly more consistent. Those who get the most out of this CD will be listeners who hold melody and ferocity in equally high regard; like before, Demon Hunter has no problem showing listeners their melodic side one minute and pounding them into submission the next. And more often than not, Demon Hunter skillfully pulls off this heaven/hell juxtaposition. There are plenty of other alt-metal artists who fluctuate between melodic intricacy and ferocious sensory assault -- that part is hardly unique -- but the advantage Demon Hunter has over much of the competition is the ability to make it sound natural rather than forced. Some alt-metal bands sound ...
