Hard Rock
author: AngelicWarlord.comFollowing a six year hiatus after the release of "Camelot In Smithereens" in 1995, Deliverance returned with its seventh studio album and one of its finest efforts musically in "Assimilation". The talented Jimmy Brown continues to bring a strong melodic flavored but doomy David Bowie meets Geoff Tate (Queensryche) lead vocal style to the band. Brown, at the same time, still excels as a rhythm guitarist, adorning the album from front to back with his super tight and crunchy guitar riffs. As a lead guitarist, on the other hand, I wish he would have chosen to cut loose a bit more and display his abilities. For example, there are several tracks on the project that feature lead guitar work of the restrained variety or are simply missing instrumental sections altogether. Longtime bassist Manny Morales, as always, puts forth a strong and steady performance. The drumming of Jim Calvert, however, can come across underplayed; I cannot help but think several songs would have improved if backed by a bit of double bass which is not delivered. Keyboardist David Gilbreath adds an industrial element to the bands hard rocking sound, lending a measure of foreshadowing to Brown's more industrial influenced side project Fearful Symmetry.
