thanks eno



I tried to balance overall analysis with individual track descriptions; maybe I went a bit too far towards the latter side

Here we have eight songs that are each worth some thoughtful examination, filled with scattered moments of near-brilliance and a great deal of sonic navel-gazing, never remotely unpleasant to listen to but never particularly gripping either.

I agree so much with this ^ The members don't appear to be into the songs, and like you mentioned earlier, despite the obviously coated lyrical content, Tom doesn't match its suggested tone. Great review, Conrad, it was analytical and offers a more varied perspective.

@Yeti: I'm not surprised, considering that we seem to agree on a lot of stuff


yeah, been happening quite a bit recently. I still feel I need to give this record more time--but I'm not expecting much to change.

Good review. People saying that it's the first good review suck my balls, though.

Conrad I wish so much that I could write like you do. This review is pretty ace even if you are "rusty". Gotta disagree on the rating. I agree that "Feral" feels almost like an "odd-one-out" so to speak, at least in contrast with the rest of the album, and I do feel the momentum drops a little bit when it comes on but other than that I think the album works really well as both a whole and in most cases as individual songs as well.

ConsiderPhlebas's review was also great.

Now stop being a cranky bear CP you can't expect everyone to read all 18 reviews. ;^)

I wish I liked it more. I really enjoyed it upon first listen and I expected it to grow on me, but it didn't..it had the reverse effect.
