i actually think this album was a dip in quality compared to the way of all flesh

yeah, flesh > sirius and enfant



i doubt magma will be on the same level as flesh but it'll probably match this at least

I like Pale Communion and I'm a huge Opeth fan but the album was overhyped to shit in the run up to its release.

sounds a bit hyperbolic but if it's anywhere near as good as it describes it I'm onboard.

for those who don't want to look at a site called it djents dot com, here's some relevant quotes since the link works now:



As a collective, but also as individuals, Magma might very well be the crowning achievement of Gojira’s career. Joe has again matured as a vocalist, displaying a vast improvement in his clean vocals, which are much more present here than on any previous Gojira record. Together with Christian, he created some of the most memorable riffs of the decade, once more garnished with the various effects that make the songs easily distinguishable and unmistakably their work. Mario holds down the kit with a presence and urgency only gifted to few other drummers. Interweaving his bass lines masterfully with the drum patterns, Jean-Michel’s contribution to Magma is as intricate as it is punishing. His tone is crisp and lays in the mix perfectly audible. These four men are perfectly in tune with each other, and it clearly shows in this incredible body of work.



[...]



To put it straight, Gojira’s Magma is a modern masterpiece, an album to define an era. Nothing within its runtime of around an hour falls flat or even short of brilliant. There is something to find for every fan of progressive music, and fans of Gojira will savor every moment the band has prepared for them.



Score: 10/10.

Notable Tracks: “The Shooting Star”; “Silvera”; “Magma”.

FFO: Meshuggah, Cynic, Pantera.

But honestly if the rest of the record lives up to the two singles released so far i could side with this review.

if the thing about cleans is true i fear this might get even more undue backlash than the last one... well, undue if it's actually great
