I will never understand the hype for the gallery. Riffs are meh, weak guitar tone, grating harsh vocals with no variation. DT got better as they aged whereas IF did the opposite

Ok there are some good riffs but its hard for me to appreciate them when the guitar tone is so thin and the bass is nearly completely inaudible

>and the bass is nearly completely inaudible



i'm not sure what version you have but it sounds like a super shitty one



the bass might be literally the best thing about that album, the way it doesnt just follow along the guitars all the time like 99% of metal

i will say stanne's early vocals annoy me quite a bit (as do many melodeath highs)

I may be wrong about the bass. Its been a while. I just remember the guitar tone and overall production sounding weak and thin

"The Gallery eats this album's lunch."



DT are like in my top 5 bands but this is absolutely not true. The melody here is absolutely ridiculous. Moonshield, Jester's Dance, Dead Eternity and December Flower are as good as anything on The Gallery. The only deciding factor is Mikael fucking Stanne.

I like DT but I'll never understand the heaping of praise on his vocals

Moonshield/Jesters Dance one of my favorite melodies in all of metal music. Always return to it, never fails to be enchanting.

Gallery has much better songwriting but the low entry curve groove and good production on this boost it up.

I'd rather compare The Gallery and Whoracle considering Whoracle is miles better than this. m/

No way. Whoracle is great but has some weaker tracks. There's nothing weak here
