THIS DOESN'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO BEING BETTER THAN THE ABSOLUTE CLASSIC THAT IS DOPPELGANGER.

Woah people that think this is better than doppelgänger exist? The only way I could see someone saying that is if they prefer cleaner shinier production for some reason.

So much of this album is drug-fueled filler. Although one of my fav FOT songs ever is The Dark Trail

The Dark Trail has an amazing ending for sure. This is good and I do enjoy it quite a bit actually, but better than Doppelganger? Not for me, I'd probably take s/t over this as well.



It all slaps though man

Can we all just equally agree to feel sorta bad for Thomas Erak? Last I heard he was playing bars in Tennessee trying to make money.

Yeah, Tom is pretty impossible to work with. When he's using, he's extremely erratic, which makes for very unpredictable relationships. I got to hand it to Tim, he stuck with the dude for a long time, so I wasn't surprised at his onstage meltdown. I do know that Tom is a perfectionist, and once again when he's using, he could be thinking he's nailing every single riff down during a live performance, when really he's a mess and all over the place. So, I thinkkkkkk the night of Tim's meltdown, Tom heard something he didn't like and tried to criticize Tim, and I suppose to Tim that was "the kettle calling the pot black" and he had just had enough. I'm truly only speculating when it pertains the onstage meltdown, but over the years I'm definitely sure about Tom's behavior and drug/alcohol abuse. I mean, the dude can't keep a band together to save his life.

There’s a short patience hurdle for about the first third of this but man, once it starts to shred it fucking SHREDS. Some of their best material

A man. A plan. A canal. Panama has gotta be one of my fav tracks they’ve done. Underrated album, it’s no S/T or Doppelgänger but still rules.
