Six years after “The Fall Of Ideals” placed All That Remains firmly on the map, these guys are still cranking out albums every two years. “A War You Cannot Win” is already their sixth full-length and on it they stick to the formula that got them where they are today.

They know exactly how to combine sheer aggression with catchy bits which is why one second they’ll be melting your face off with a nasty riff before patching things up again with an extremely melodic chorus. They are one of the bands that have perfected this kind of sound and while the surprise has worn off long ago, they still know how to write highly entertaining songs.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
