Am I the only one who still thinks this sucks. Honestly I don't understand why this is receiving so much praise. It's boring, stupid poo.

I honestly don't think I could bring myself to listen to it again.

You're entitled to your opinion but I definitely think this album is one of the best things I've heard all year.

"Florence vs. Foals" Both are down under at the same time (end of July) too.



"Am I the only one who still thinks this sucks. Honestly I don't understand why this is receiving so much praise. It's boring, stupid poo" Oh LG, what on Earth have you downloaded. I'm starting to think you may have the wrong album. Definitely not boring & most definitely not stupid. And why the hell do you keep changing your ratings for albums? You haven't got multiple personalities, have you?



"definitely think this album is one of the best things I've heard all year" It's currently my AOTY, but I haven't heard some of the other well-respected LPs as yet.

Hehe no im just doin that with S&W to confuzzle Bloc. Clearly you haven't dabbled into the Metal prog of awesomeness known as Periphery. There I just rec it go check em out now Davey.

It's the vocalist that ruins this album for me.

Totally understand your perspective Libson, his voice is the most lacking part of the music, but voices have never been my bag (see favorite band - Fugazi). Also, if you like prog metal you probably will not like this slower building stuff, you'd probably hear it as monotonous. Wow I'm assuming a lot about you...

"Clearly you haven't dabbled into the Metal prog..." I don't like metal & I don't like prog. So it would be like double the suck for me.



"Wow I'm assuming a lot about you..." I get the feeling you may have assumed correctly though.

Didn't like this at first, but I felt like the second half was stronger on first listen. Seems like a bit of a grower.

Well put Mike. That's why I mentioned to someone a few pages back to try listening to the album out of order, or backwards or something. The 2nd half is initially under-whelming, but really has some strong songs as they grow on you.



Give it a few more listens Mike. Could be a 4 in no time.

It's definitely a grower. I actually don't have an issue with people saying it seemed a little boring on the first couple of listens. Songs like 'After Glow' & 'What Remains' (even 'Black Gold') didn't do a great deal for me initially. But eventually, they all became highlight contenders.

And "immerse" you must. What did I say in the concluding paragraph? Something about it "not being background music".

Exactamente. Wouldn't want to have this fly by without truly experiencing.
