“Cold Was The Ground” is a near-masterpiece from Kansan trio The Midnight Ghost Train that I’ve no doubt in my mind will impress any metal fan as it did with me with its crushing riffs, badass vocals, and drums that have an amazingly explosive pulse. And I say “near-masterpiece” because it didn’t make me completely s**t my pants and wanna do a back flip in happiness even though it almost did. I’m a picky critic prick, I know.
This album was made to impress and The Midnight Ghost Train does not disappoint in any way and I can already tell with absolute certainty that it will make it on some top albums of the year lists come the end of the year. And I’m saying this as I look for pen and paper to write that s**t down.
