Liner Notes

Japanese

『The Wrong Side of Heaven and the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 1』は、FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCHが同年に発表した2部作の第1章であり、重いリフと巨大なコーラスを直線的な攻撃性で束ねた一枚だ。プロデューサーはケヴィン・チャーコ。バンドの持ち味である重低音グルーヴと、拳を上げるアンセミックな歌を高い密度で詰め込み、ビルボード200で2位に達する成功を収めた。カナダで3位、英国で21位を記録するなど、バンドの国際的な人気拡大も印象づけた。 先行シングル“Lift Me Up”は、JUDAS PRIESTのロブ・ハルフォードをゲストに迎え、メインストリーム・ロック・チャートで1位を獲得した代表曲だ。社会的なメッセージを込めたタイトル曲“Wrong Side of Heaven”の陰影あるメロディ、LL COOL Jのカバー“Mama Said Knock You Out”の意外性まで、振れ幅の大きな楽曲が並ぶ。“Burn MF”のような直撃力の高いナンバーも健在で、アイヴァン・ムーディの歌とスクリームの往復が全編を牽引する。二枚組という野心的な構想の幕開けを、力強く飾る充実作である。

English

The Wrong Side of Heaven and the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 1 is the first chapter of a two-part set Five Finger Death Punch released the same year — a record that binds heavy riffs and huge choruses with linear aggression. Kevin Churko produced. Packing the band's signature low-end grooves and fist-raising anthemic singing at high density, it reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200. It also hit No. 3 in Canada and No. 21 in the UK, underscoring the band's growing international reach. The lead single "Lift Me Up," featuring Judas Priest's Rob Halford as a guest, is a signature song that topped the Mainstream Rock chart. From the shadowed melody of the socially charged title track "Wrong Side of Heaven" to the surprise of the LL Cool J cover "Mama Said Knock You Out," songs of wide range line up. High-impact numbers like "Burn MF" remain alive, and Ivan Moody's alternation of singing and screams drives the whole record. It powerfully opens the ambitious concept of a double album.
