One of the top metal albums of 2011. There seems to be an innovative and unexpected thing in every tune.rThe singer does a tremendous job and my hats off to him playing the Keys.rThere isn't a boring plain preset synth patch sound anywhere. rA very rhythmic and melodic album.
I really expected huge things from this album: "Tall Poppy Syndrome" was a superb album and
a true grower for me. "Bilateral," while still a great album and also a grower, doesn't
quite live up to the previous album. Surprises pop up here and there throughout the songs,
which range from catchy (the first and last track especially), to unpredictably progressive
(for example, "Forced Entry"), to rather awkward "Thorn," which could have been so much
better.
