It's taking a couple spins, but it's growing quite a bit on me. Sounds like something Mastodon could do in their slower/more chill moments.

Nick's vox haven't ever really bugged me. In fact I think his actual *ability* to sing has improved a bit with each record.

It's really good when he doesn't sing.

Oh I see this has been mentioned once or twice. It's just like Mastodon, hire a real singer dammit.

I've been listening to this heaps and I enjoy it while it's on, but I still can't remember what any of the songs sound like once it's over. But then I listen to it again and I'm like "ohhhhh yeah... sick."



It's weird. I'll either get bored of this or it'll be the ultimate grower.

Yeah, I don't get the problem with the vocals. This is more tolerable than the singing on Intronaut's last album and I didn't see anyone complaining about that one

Lots of people did actually complain about the vocals on the Intronaut album. But I liked both that and this. In fact they are probably my two favourite albums of the year so far.

The grating issue with the vocals is that they already had it perfect the way it was. Trying to fix something that wasn't broken kinda' thing. The instrumentation and grooves is Elder's forte'. And what they did with the vocals distracts from that.



Regardless, there's still some great music in here.

Anyone who has a Megadeth album 5ed loses the right to bitch about sub-par vocals in metal forever

bad vox can fit with and elevate the music tho, or they can clash with it.

If they fit with and elevate the music than by what metric are they "bad vocals"?
