"But seriously, this isn't anything super complicated or over the top. At times, I feel as if I can't
fucking breathe listening to this. Some of the ideas on here are so off the wall, I just don't know
what to make of them. It's as if Lemay is lost in his own brilliance. He had the formula down pat on ­
From Wisdom to Hate but it seems like he's taken a step back to Obscura which for the most part is the
weirdest dm in existence. I like it but I'm not going to pretend to think for a second that Colored
Sands is close to something I can instantly enjoy when I pop it on. I really struggle with describing
how I should appreciate it."

so... you're essentially saying


this is too brilliant/creative/weird/*whatever*?

Nothing to get lost in, just a bunch of weird chord structures and atonal melodies. Totally lacks the great songs of FWtH. Call me old fashioned but I like songs, not ideas.



i see what karl is saying but...gorguts ratings don't drop like stones, that's against the laws of physics



Hahahaha I'm just ribbing all the noobs around here.

Obscura is the weirdest shit ever, but I love it strangely enough

I still want to hear Considered Dead and Fwth

Nice to see such diversity within this band though. Proves how amazing they actually are when they've only released 5 albums and yet such a wide range in opinion.

Dude, essential dm listening.

sure hope it is, Erosion, Obscura and this are all pretty much among my fav Dm (though granted I don't
really listen to as much Dm as some)

Had 'em downloaded but the files were bogus, need to remember to get them again

Listen to the weird use of harmonics on "An Ocean of Wisdom" at 1:17 and that backing tremolo riff.....fucked up.

Gorguts never disappoints. I can't ever imagine giving less than a 4. 3.5 on something really different (and that would be a stretch considering how often their albums succeed each time they shift sounds).

Wizard that's a little bit of a nitpick... Don't you think? Nothing wrong with your rating, though.

With albums that are so precise and viciously defended, of course I'm going to nit-pick if I feel otherwise. And I don't think I'm nit-picking since I give a logical answer and not just comment with "this sucks".
