Natural Born Chaos, Soilwork's fourth album, came out on Nuclear Blast in 2002, and the Helsingborg band sound like they're trying to rip melodic death metal open at the seams. Devin Townsend produced it, and the lineup was a proper wrecking crew: Björn Strid swinging from roar to full-throated melody, Peter Wichers and Ola Frenning trading razor riffs, Ola Flink on bass, Henry Ranta pounding the drums, and Sven Karlsson, on his first album with the band, lacing it all with cold keyboard shimmer.
It's also the first Soilwork record to let alternative metal creep in around the edges, a move that became plainer on the next one, Figure Number Five. "As We Speak" got a video and is the track the countdowns caught, a whiplash burst with a chorus that actually sings.
