Stampin’ Ground
Carved from Empty Words
Thorp
English bruisers Stampin’ Ground deliver exactly what you’d expect on Carved from Empty Words. They play Slayer-worshipping metalcore that you’ve heard a million time before, but they play it very well.
While it’s a solid album, with the song “Officer Down” as a stand-out, the startling lack of originality displayed here can’t be ignored. Walls of Jericho, Most Precious Blood, pre-Victory Darkest Hour, All Out War and Vision of Disorder are just a few of the bands that “influenced” Stampin’ Ground. They’re a more than proficient band. No one’s saying anything about their abilities but, if you want another album by a band mimicking the previously mentioned, here you go.
