good news! Mantra is kinda cool, there's this track that is a complete rip-off of Morbid Angel's Domination e_e. K, now this one will hopefully sound more like tool!

Way to copy Tool with that album title. The definition of a mediocre band right here.

These guys are incredible sporadically, but they've yet to release a consistent album. Album title is cheesy.

The Latter Rain was awesome. And Ænigma is the latin spelling of Enigma, not a fucking Tool title ripoff.

Lol people who sees Tool everywhere. Probably people who never heard of Rush or King Crimson.

Judging for the cover it will sound more like Baroness, which is not a bad thing.

Zion, the way the title is presented suggests otherwise, no need to defend a shit band.

I am sure that's not gonna happen no matter how similar the cover might be to a Baroness album cover.

And Karl, where's the love eh? Both of their albums have grown off me a bit but I think that's mostly due to overplay, as I like the band. Yeah, you heard me, these guys are damn solid!
