LOUIS0NFIRE: Best Isis Album?

FeralMemories 10.11.11	Oceanic, definitely.
pizzamachine 10.11.11	1
Relinquished 10.11.11	forever...? Oceanic. was so close to saying Panopticon but then I remembered Weight
Inveigh 10.11.11	yeah it'd be Oceanic for me lately I really like Absence though
Keyblade 10.11.11	Panopticon I should listen to Oceanic more though.
Manic_ 10.11.11	2 or 3, most likely 3 though
cb123 10.11.11	Panopticon
ZombicidalMan 10.11.11	Oceanic.
omnipanzer 10.11.11	No such thing. Haha, I should probably give these guys a try eventually.
Colliiiin 10.11.11	Panopticon man, that album is a beautiful piece of music.
Acrosstheshield13 10.11.11	Panopticon Oceanic Wavering Radiant In The Absence Of Truth Celestial
Ignimbrite 10.11.11	Panopticon, no question. That album had more impact on me when I first heard it than any other music I've ever heard. Oceanic is great too, though.
Satellite 10.11.11	colors
ThyCrossAwaits 10.11.11	2 3 4 1 5
warrar1 10.11.11	celestial...nah just kidding that album sucks
ckypro3 10.11.11	Panopticon 100%
Relinquished 10.11.11	"celestial...nah just kidding that album sucks" lol it's has their heaviest moments there, it's well-written too.
warrar1 10.11.11	panopticon is reallyyyy good but forevers a pretty long time man....id get bored of it eventualy. oceanic is more interresting so id go with that
warrar1 10.11.11	heavy doesnt equal good. their songwritting skills at that point pretty much blew
Ignimbrite 10.11.11	...except that Celestial is a good album, but whatever.
eternium 10.11.11	There isn't a single thing Isis has done that is bad. Panopticon, of course, is best.
Relinquished 10.11.11	glisten, collapse and crush, cft, deconstructing towers, swarm reigns I say are on par with songwriting with what's on panopticon and oceanic.
Maniac! 10.11.11	2
warrar1 10.11.11	not at all...they take one idea and pretty much milk it for all its worth. there is no (good) buildup at all on celestial. oceanic is pretty much celestial but with 4x as good songwriting
Ignimbrite 10.11.11	I also feel like people forget about SGNL>05 sometimes. Divine Mother (The Tower Crumbles) is one of their best songs.
eternium 10.11.11	Glisten is one of their best songs.
ImpactCrater 10.11.11	yeah but they weren't trying to do huge buildups at the time. just strong atmospheric sludge.
Ignimbrite 10.11.11	True, it's kind of dumb to say that atmospheric sludge isn't good because it has no buildups.
warrar1 10.11.11	idk i think they were trying to go for it but they didnt do a really good job. even if, sludge shouldnt be 8 minutes long per song lol
Relinquished 10.11.11	"sludge shouldnt be 8 minutes long per song lol" do you even know sludge metal
eternium 10.11.11	That's the LOL comment of the day.
warrar1 10.11.11	what other sludge band has songs that long? other then some melvins songs but those are usualy more droney.
ShadowRemains 10.11.11	clearly not
Ignimbrite 10.11.11	"sludge shouldnt be 8 minutes long per song lol" hehe
warrar1 10.11.11	still waaaaiting!
ShadowRemains 10.11.11	wyanqueef
eternium 10.11.11	What sludge bands DON'T have songs that long?
Relinquished 10.11.11	OH MAN I COULD MAKE A LIST FISTULA MOSS RWAKE UNEARTHLY TRANCE ZOROASTER IRON MONKEY BUZZOVEN THOU RAMESSES SOURVEIN OCEAN GRIEF CORRUPTED FUCKING CORRUPTED HAVE YOU HEARD CORRUPTED GRAVES AT SEA HARVEY MILK UFOMAMMUT LIST GOES ON
profoundword 10.11.11	Oceanic Panopticon Wavering Radiant In The Absence of Truth (got a lot of hate but still pretty good) Celestial
warrar1 10.11.11	down, acid bath, eyehategod, high on fire, crowbar, kylesa. some bands off the top of my head. 5 min songs tops...
Relinquished 10.11.11	jokes on you eyehategod has a 7 minute song, high on fire almost 8
warrar1 10.11.11	basically my whole original point is that celestial's songs dont go anywhere to warrent such long song times.
ShadowRemains 10.11.11	not sure what crowbar album ur talkin about, but odd fellows rest has two songs 6 min+
eternium 10.11.11	Eyehategod - Blank (7:10) Acid Bath - Dead Girl (7:23) Crowbar - Liquid Sky and Cold Black Earth (6:24) Down - Bury Me in Smoke (7:04) Kylesa - The Warning (6:26) High on Fire - Snakes for the Divine (8:23)
Relinquished 10.11.11	idk I kinda would agree on the title track, but everything else you should probably re-listen to it well. structurally panopticon was limited too, it just had many layers on every section of the songs. celestial was meant to be heavy, progressive in the sections, and the build-ups weren't important.
warrar1 10.11.11	all those songs u guys listed are the exception to the rule for those bands anyways. for an album that has all 5,6+ minute songs youd expect for them to go somewhere with them. and they really don't(that well anyways). that was my original point
ShadowRemains 10.11.11	yes and ur secondary point was song lengths, which has been proven wrong
eternium 10.11.11	You should start listening to Corrupted and Earth.
Skweetis 10.11.11	Wavering Radiant
InAbsentia 10.12.11	Definitely Panopticon.
Ire 10.12.11	band chokes on dick
InFiction 10.12.11	Panopticon. But each album is amazing.
Keyblade 10.12.11	All I know is that the last 2 minutes or so of So Did We is probably the most amazing piece of music I've ever heard. That's why Panopticon gets the nod for me.
pcar 10.12.11	Panopticon's replay value is legit
KILL 10.12.11	green 1
