**💭 Thoughts:** I love it when the cover art of an album portrays exactly what the album itself sounds like, and for Slaughter to Prevail’s 2016 debut album *Chapters of Misery*, they manage to do exactly that. This is a great album from start to finish—whether it be the cinematic, ominous guitar hooks or the guttural Russian and English vocals—this album has no major flaws. **🎶 Tracklist Review** 1.)
