Info:
Simply put, I love this band. The energy, chops, and epic nature of their work astounds me every time I hear it. Now you know where I place this band in the grand scheme of metal groups: at the top.
What sets this band apart from others like it (epic, speed, metal, whatever) for me is their positive energy, upbeat lyrics, and tendency to stick to major keys (rare in metal). While the argument that many of their songs tend to sound the same has validity, this particular album stands out as a unique entry in their catalog. What sets Ultra Beatdown apart from their other albums is a stronger synthesizer presence and an overall slower pace (this latter comment should be taken in context, they are a speed metal group so slow for them is still pretty fast).
