'Beyond' kills this...heck even 'More Light' kills this



I Walk for Miles is a decent Sabbath riff and solo, might as well be instrumental though. They've proven themselves as good song writers in the past but there's no decent melody here outside the solos



The first 7 on 'More Light' haven't got the guitar beef of this album but all those songs just jump out at you more than anything on this

Yeah Beyond has the energy but there's just something here that harks back to something and demands to be cranked.

It might just be a guitar purists album and I'm that dude who doesn't even jam Hendrix for fun

Not really though doof, most of the time i could care less about solos, it's the sweet mascis and lou's vocals that draws in more.

Well I like the sound of the album as it's typical Dino but if 'Love Is' and 'I Walk for Miles' are among the stronger songs I'm not a fan of either



'Left/Right' might be the one that grows on me here

It's the song I'm supposed to like on the album, the sort of whimsical aching tune, but they've just done it so many times. I'd rather listen to 'Crumble' which is the same song 20 times better

Ahah yeah i dig it but also get where ya coming from.

I dunno maybe it's because i haven't finished their discography and dont have the full picture of em yet, or because it is still fresh in my head, but this is just sounding super nice for me atm.

Yes you should buddy, but keep in mind, and youre hearing this from a dude who is digging this album a lot, they have much better starting points.
