Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | Name5.0 classicCynic Traced in AirDamn it all, this thing is just perfect. The flow, the musicianship, the songwriting, the vocals, the acoustic sections/breaks, the solos, the ambiance, the keys, the riffs, the base, the drums...you get the idea. It just all comes together in a nigh impenetrable 34 minute package of pure awesomeness that, because of its brevity, begs to be replayed over and over. And as you do, you pick up nuance and subtly after glorious nuance and subtly. Each track is unique and each is fabulous in its own way. Excruciatingly exciting riffs that boast ever so slight tuning changes quiver up and down a rolling wave of precise, catchy bass work, and a never ending barrage of liquid-like drum fills and intelligently employed, powerful double pedaling. The vocals flow perfectly and the mixture of the high-pitched vocoder cleans and the stark, powerful growls create an oxymoron, a unified contrast that will often pleasantly distract you from the furious instrumentation. Additionally, the lyricism is, from what I've been able to gather, of the highest order. I can't wait for a hard copy and a lyric's-laden, artful booklet. There is a sound everywhere you listen, but it never comes off disorganized or purposeless. Everything is right where it should be. The snare and symbols fill in gaps while the bass keeps the tempo and the guitars and vocals whirl around it all; it's like watching a master painter brush out a tapestry before your eyes of the utmost precision, beauty and intent. The emotion found here (but most prominently in the wonderful soloing) is astounding and the fact that such emotion can be felt through an almost mechanically precise and well thought out method of songwriting is even more amazing. As if that weren't enough, frequent transitions from the soft to the heavy and back (some delectably jarring like in Integral Birth, others painstakingly smooth like in The Space for This and King of Those Who Know), a couple of slightly odd time-signatures (like in Adam's Murmur) and strange but enticing stop-starts and almost tribal-like beats (with a modern feel, like in The Unknown Guest and Evolutionary Sleeper) round out the sound of the album that, to me, covers virtually every sonic aspect my ears crave from the kind of music I listen to. I liked Focus very much, but wondered what all the fuss was about. Then I thought about how it was released in 1993 and was simply far ahead of it's time in many ways. I wondered if Cynic would be able to duplicate that kind of effect in 2008 when so much has already been done. Well they didn't duplicate it. They improved upon it, and created an album whose impact is, at least to me, greater than that of Focus, and indeed is one of the all around best metal albums I've ever had the pleasure of listening to about 30 times in less than a week. The entire album is a highlight really, but if I had to narrow it down, The Space for This, Integral Birth, Adam's Murmur, and King of Those Who Know are supremely spectacular. Also, the album's opener and closer are two of the most beautiful songs I've heard and are much like succinct summaries of the sound and feel that Cynic has poured their hearts and souls into producing. Can I give this more than a 5? No? Shucks. Get this now. Darkflight Perfectly CalmDisillusion Back to Times of SplendorWhere to begin. This album went from a 3.5, to a 4, to a 4.5, to a 5; with each successive listen I simply couldn't believe how much emotion, how many change-ups and different sound elements, how many vocal transitions, and layers of melody, how technical and brutal, how beautiful and serene the things I was hearing were, and how natural and un-forced it all felt. This is something that I often look for in music, but rarely find; something that naturally creates a mood, and holds your attention to it, causing you to think about nothing but the music, not forcefully, but gracefully, tastefully, and dynamically. This album is a good as everyone says. Better even perhaps, for it took me nearly a dozen listens just to begin to understand the depth of musicianship, songwriting mastery, technical prowess, and natural emotion that, no, not permeates this album, IS this album. Evoken Antithesis of LightThe dark emotional depth of this album is practically unfathomable. It will haunt your dreams, waking and not; the sheer magnitude of the depressive force that oozes from every corner and crevasse of the sound Evoken spills on you will drag you down and pull you apart...slowly. I would describe individual instruments or techniques, but in the most sincerest honesty, I've listened to this album over 20 times and for the life of me I could not tell you what does what and when. There's simply too much unrelenting pressure on my psyche, on my innermost thoughts and feelings, to pick anything out. It's one of the few albums that I can almost completely zone out to, and yet somehow still hear and comprehend its message, in this case, one of darkness and despair. It's a staggering whirl of blackness, of horrid visions, and a terrible, overwhelming sense of complete and utter nothingness. The most depressing thing I've ever heard and, therefore, the best doom album I've ever had the twisted pleasure of experiencing. A masterpiece. Falls of Rauros Hail Wind and Hewn OakKYPCK Черно (Black)Moonsorrow Viides luku - HävitettyTo many this may seem an exercise in excess, a chore to listen to, and a waste of time to get into to. That's them. For me, this is the pinnacle of sound, the peak of instrumental performance, the epitome of elemental fusion, the album to end all albums. Never in my life have I heard a collection of music during which I was completely and gleefully engaged every single second I was listening. There was always a boring section, a weak track, an oddball waste-of-space filler, ect. Not here. Moonsorrow has managed to change the way I perceive, no, not metal, but music itself, what it truly means to me, and what it can truly be: all-encompassing, emotionally stirring, mentally entrancing, and, ultimately, moving, in every possible way one can be moved. Everything I listen to from now on will be judged against this standard. This may not tell you whether or not you will like this. But I hope I have told you why I think this is the greatest music I've ever heard.

Each song seems to build on the one before it (much as Tyler's review states) and everything seems exactly where it needs to be and sounds exactly how it needs to sound. From the helter-skelter opening track to the powerful and focused closer (the last 3 minutes will leave you breathless, just not how you think), Burst never gives you a chance to avert your attention while never overwhelming you. It may take quite a few listens to really "get" this album, but once it all sinks in, you'll start to remember almost every moment from it, and realize how inspirationally fantastic everything is, from the instrumentation, to the ambiance, the songwriting (flow and progression of the songs and the album as a whole), even the vocals will grow on you if you let them, and end up sounding perfect for the odd yet intelligent and altogether moving breaks from soft to heavy and back again. This will take you on a journey that, I can say with confidence, will feel new and vigorous every time you take it. Few albums I've heard put forth as much effort, emotion, precision, thoughtful progression of sound, and overall quality. A masterpiece.Coldworld Melancholie²Communic Payment of ExistanceFollowing in the bright footsteps of their previous material, Communic stays on target and on point, releasing another amazing album. At first it sounds very similar, almost a clone of Waves of Visual Decay, but with repeated listens, you will (most likely) find that the majority of the tracks here change up a lot more than on their previous offerings and strike an effective balance between slower and faster passages, lighter and heavier ones. They don't linger on a particular pattern for any length of time (except in a couple of instances) but still retain a core sound on a track-by-track basis, and over the course of the album. Simplicity is still the key here, and they manage to make even more small changes, fine tunings, and employ ambient effects (there's some sweet keyboard work here that sits complacently in the background) to a much greater effect. Whereas before they sounded like add-ons, here the blend seamlessly with the rest of the instrumentation. All this adds up to an album even more lively and exciting than Waves. And possibly even better. Those bored or unimpressed by the band's previous material will find nothing to sway them here but for fans of Communic, this is just what the gods ordered.Dark Tranquillity FictionDaylight Dies Lost to the LivingDe Lirium's Order DiagnosisDeath SymbolicEdge of Sanity When All Is SaidEluveitie SlaniaEquilibrium SagasThis album is basically perfect. Track for track, minute for minute, Equilibrium showers you with blazing riffage, exciting drumming, solid bass work, killer vocals, and as if that weren't enough, slap a gigantic helping of folk-influenced/themed orchestral sections that alternate between featuring in and blending with the instrumentation, and inspiring choruses/keys that lift the band's sound to a level attainable by few musicians. The first 7 tracks will be the most epic thing you've ever heard, and then the last 6 (the 16 minute instrumental closer being the crown jewel of this masterpiece) will blow that away. I've said enough. Get this. Like right the hell now.

Everything here it tight (the drumming in particular is some of the best in the genre) but what really stands out is the songwriting. The flow and progression of each song is intelligent (and, dare I say, "fun", especially with some of the awesome soloing) without being pretentious, cheesy, or overwrought. Each transition feels natural and meaningful and as such, every song ends up interesting and enormously replayable and this is what really makes the album so good. Nothing is ever boring or repetitive; there is a similar feel to all the songs, and the sonic elements remain pretty much the same, but this only serves to strengthen the effect of the dynamic (and decidedly ardent) musicianship. This is an album you can play any track from randomly, or spin beginning to end and always come out satisfied, and though it may not be particularly innovative or hugely original (though it is somewhat both) it is so consistently good that though the term "flawless" is too strong, you would be hard pressed to highlight a weak spot. If you're looking for melo-death and haven been disappointed by the samy-ness of the genre as of late, this will put a big fat metal-tastic smile on your face.

Insomnium Since the Day It All Came DownIron Thrones Visions of LightIsole Bliss of SolitudeJoy Division CloserKalisia CybionAn amazingly fluid album that encompasses an enormous array of sonic elements. It sometimes feels as if the inter-song change-ups and transitions are a bit forced and can leave the listener disoriented, but it retains a solid sense of itself and never goes so far outside the (very wide) boundaries that it's sets up for itself with the first few tracks that it ever sounds un-orderly. The "songwriting" is very thoughtful and patient; the album unfolds before you, step-by-step, and though it may seem all over the place at first listen, the soundscape matures and builds over the course the album and it all ends up being quite epic, even if they did try to do a little too much in some of the tracks. A genre-smashing, passion-filled effort that you can come back to again and again. I have just one question.

With a black metal heart and some truly creeped out ambiance intelligently distributed across the album, the (long) running time will hardly be noticeable. This really pulls you in to the point where even though there's some very complex instrumentation going on (the bass is deceptively present and maliciously effective) you don't need to listen that carefully for this to give you the full impact of it's sound, and the feeling of a desperate downward spiral that it conveys so well. There's a lot more to say about this blackened art set piece, but I fear I've not the words, nor the musical knowledge.

Whoo yeah, bring it on! Not quite up to par with the material on V: Havitetty, but it's extremely wonderful to see that Moonsorrow still has a few of these uber-epic, multi-dimensional giganto-tracks in them, and Tulimyrsky (the song) is indeed epic. It goes through a huge amount of changes/transitions and incorporates dozens of sound elements that build, break, and re-build the song, keeping you interested and engaged throughout. The covers and re-records are all extremely well done and though I've never heard the original Merciless song (Back to North), Moonsorrow's performance there is nearly as good at the title track. Great stuff all around, can't wait for their next full length album.

Honestly. Some songs drag a bit (Cast into the Open Sea, Remains of the Dead), others blister forth with an enthusiasm and intensity that I've rarely seen in any band (The first four tracks, Soul Thrasing Black Sorcery) and the closer (Within My Blood) is very possibly the best thrash song I've ever heard (yeah, including Metallica and Slayer, I said it . Though some might say that their style is very derived, I feel there is a certain flair and a unique power to their constant change-ups, and the choppy chuggs at a 180mph, something that captures the essence of thrash established by previous bands without actually stealing it. This is a powerful, fun, technically proficient, musically exciting and generally original offering amidst a sea of wankers and copycats.Skyfire SpectralSol (DK) Let There Be A MassacreSolar Dawn EquinoctiumSolstafir KöldSombres Forets Royaume De GlaceSting Ten Summoner's TalesSummoning Oath BoundSworn Bastards and ConquerorsSymphony X The Divine Wings of TragedySystem of a Down MezmerizeSystem of a Down HypnotizeThe Cranberries Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?The Sword Gods of the EarthA step up from Age of Winters, the vocals are still boring and uninspired (though slightly improved), but the riffs are tighter, more dynamic, and the overall feel of the album is more confident and energetic. The production is still off, but it kind of works for these guys, and it matters less on this album as the instrumentation has notably improved. The drumming takes a back seat (once again) but there's enough cool fills and simple but solid patterns to keep you bouncing without distracting you from the great guitar playing. The final two tracks are the best material The Sword has written. All things considered, some will find this mind-numbingly dull, others will marvel at the gritty, heavy, ass-kicking riffing. Personally I find it enormously refreshing to hear this kind of "old school" metal done so well in 2008. Thurisaz Scent of a DreamTranscending Bizarre?

Sonorous and dark, infused with crazy ambiance and rounded out by some awesome stretches of straight smooth jamming (like in Fear and Sickness, Hidden Faces, and Water is Not Enough, amongst others). I've heard albums that plod, but this is different; this shambles along with a sinister, heavy drag, an evil smirk, and a crooked claw that reaches out and grabs you up at a moment's notice, and you can't help but enjoy the ride. I was expecting not to like this very much (2.5). One straight, thorough listen and I knew it was something to pay attention to.
