This band doesn't have a "raw" feel at all. It's very polished, though there are some production issues but in general what the band needs to do is hire a decent singer, have tommy stick to keyboards, and don't write overlong songs with silly "let's copy Mr. Bungle/random weirdo band" breaks.

I didn't mean raw sounding just feeling... Kind of all over the place and unconventional, just like his vocals

It's unnecessarily quirky and the unconventional part just comes from their Mr. Bungle influences.

I think the quirky parts are what keep this from being a 5 for me. Ants of the Sky had one of my favorite climaxes ever, only to give way to a country ho-down wtf?

I do, however, really like the baby part in Sun of Nothing, it's too cute to be bad...

Well it's a good thing you'll probably never meet him.
Lol. Learn to tolerate opinions, dude. Especially when I could be childish in attacking several of your ratings. But this isn't the place.

i really don't understand the hype with this album. my roommate gave it to me on a usb key (thank god i didn't pay for it) and told me it was some good stuff, but man, this is just terrible.



the album is one of the few albums that when i listen to it, i just can't wait for it to be over. track 1 sounds like track 2 sounds like track 3 sounds like track 4, etc. every single track seems to be just a hodge-podge of melodies that last for 30 seconds at a a time. the so-called "death growls" aren't even that brutal . . . they're just unintelligible grunts.



the musicianship though, is top-notch, and i will give these guys credit for that . . .



if i want my share of progressive technical death metal, i'll stick to death, atheist, and cynic.

i mean that every track is the same in that every track just contains 129377 melodies with no coherent structure . . . that's how it sounds like to me, if you don't agree, than that's fine--each to his own.

This sounds strangely like your Dio review, but unlike that review, this is good. Pos.

that's not really an opinion. so i can rightfully say you are wrong. and you are. terribly wrong.

ok, i'm sorry that you can't understand that the concepts of perception and relativity. please continue to live in your narrow spectrum of a life--trust me, you'll be a lot happier that way.

i guess you don't understand the concepts of right and wrong, and trust me my spectrum of living is far from narrow.

It's quite easy to distinguish the structures within each song. Just because you perceive an album to be structureless does not mean that it is. There are rare moments of seeming spontaneity, but there is coherent structure even within that. The fact that you can't see this points to your own narrow spectrum of life, and more importantly, to the simple fact that you are wrong

So you're telling me that Decade of Statues sounds like Foam Born?



IF so, then you're a fucking moron. Or you're deaf and you just worship at the altar that is the douche bag Altmar.
