DIPHTHERIA
"To Wait for Fire" (Pitch Black; 2008)
Reviewed by Snidermann
Diphtheria may not be a catchy name for a band, but this metal act is high quality from top to bottom. After several listens, I have failed so far to catch just the band is trying to say but I know I will after a few more enjoyable spins.
This band shreds. When I listen to "To Wait For Fire" I look for flames to come shooting out of my CD player. This CD is fast and furious.
Before I listened to "To Wait for Fire," I knew absolutely nothing about this band. Now that I've heard it, however, they will not fly under my radar again.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
