Roadrunner United - The All-Star Sessions

One of the most anticipated metal albums of the year, Joey Jordison (Slipknot), Matthew K. Heafy (Trivium), Robert Flynn (Machine Head) and Dino Cazeras (ex-Fear Factory) captain the ultimate dream bands comprising past and present artists from Roadrunner Records!
The end result is one great album featuring 18 tracks put together by over 55 artists from 42 bands. The only downside to me is that every track sounds just like what you'd expect from the singers. I would have liked if they mixed up the styles a bit instead of doing what they usually do for their own bands.
This is still a must have album for all heavy metal fans, especially those of the Roadrunner label.
