| TesseracT Ranked
Yup, ranking every TesseracT studio album, as well as their EPs. | | 6 |  | TesseracT
Perspective
Utterly unnessecary. This is TesseracT's only release to feature short term vocalist Elliot Coleman. While he has a beautiful voice, it doesn't fit with TesseracT. Perspective is essentially, what the Icarus EP is for Periphery. The first three songs are acoustic re-recordings of songs off of One. Their not bad, but their worse than the originals, and far less interesting. Track four is a cover track, also uninteresting. While track five's title "Eden 2.0" might lead someone to think of it as a follow-up to Eden, this isn't the case in the slightest way. It's simply a shortened version of Eden, with Elliot Coleman on vocals.
Worst song(s): They're all not goot
Rating: 2/5 | | 5 |  | TesseracT
Errai
Kind of unnessecary, in my opinion. Polaris wasn't their best to begin with, and remixing a few songs didn't change it. In fact, the remixed versions sound even more boring to me than the originals. However, it features quite a lovely atmosphere, which keeps this album from being a 2.5.
Rating: 2.75/5 | | 4 |  | TesseracT
Polaris
A disappointing album. It's not horrible, in fact it's actually a pretty good album, but in TesseracT terms, it simply doesn't compare to any of their other studio albums. It's disappointing in the fact that this was their first release, to re-feature Daniel Tompkins, after o'Hara left the band. The songs aren't that interesting.
Best songs: Seven Names, Hexes, Survival
Worst song(s): Messenger, Utopia
Rating: 3.2/5 | | 3 |  | TesseracT
Sonder
This was the first TesseracT album I listened to, and while it might not be their best record, it's still a great album.
Best songs: King, Juno, Beneath My Skin / Mirror Image
Worst song(s): Orbital
Rating: 4/5 | | 2 |  | TesseracT
One
The most TesseracT album. Their first record is also their most somber to date. However, the production is a bit lacking, and some songs just don't hold up. Concealing Fate is TesseracT's magnum opus song, but it certainly doesn't steal the show.
Best songs: Concealing Fate, Eden, Lament
Worst song(s): Sunrise, April
Rating: 4.25/5 | | 1 |  | TesseracT
Altered State
A controversial pick for sure, especially since this is TesseracT's only record to not feature their signature vocalist, Daniel Tompkins. However, its masterful songwriting and beautiful sound make this TesseracT's best AOAT, for me. Ashe o'Hara might be a screamer, like Tompkins, but his angelic voice just beats Tompkins' on almost any front.
Best songs: Of Mind - Exiled, Of Matter - Retrospect, Of Reality - Eclipse
Worst song(s): None

05.19.20 | Great ranking, Altered state is definitely top. Though I do listen to Sonder a lot, really love the feel of that album. | bigweinerdon
05.19.20 | Beneath My Skin/Mirror Image is the worst part about Sonder. I think Polaris is slightly better. | bludngorevidal
05.19.20 | Back in my TesseracT days I was always confused why some people rated Polaris so high and Altered State so low. I agree with your rankings here; ratings might be a bit high for my current musical taste, but respect nonetheless | JDubb
05.19.20 | 1 is 1 and 2 is 2. Just listened to Altered State yesterday, funny enough, and it is a magnum opus. 3 and 4 are interchangeable 4 me. | 0GuyMan0
05.20.20 | might *not* be a screamer, like Daniel...
Heavily disagree that he's better than Daniel at anything except singing a half step higher in studio (which has nothing to do with ability) and there are a billion videos out there showing how goddamned perfect dan is live and the same number of videos showing Ashe struggling with all his own material.
That said, 1 is far and away 1. I don't think it's close or controversial, especially on this site where most people shit on the band in general. Personally sonder is 2. | MO
05.20.20 | "Worst song(s): April"
lol | Ziggity
05.20.20 | Not huge on these guys but Daniel sounded great live, his screams ruled too but he just doesn’t do em that much unfortunately. |
