Album Rating: 4.5
i agree that it sounds like it's sort of from another universe. but i think that's very cool, especially in the chorus of 'the unknown guest'. and i think the vocals are great. one thing that really bothered me with Focus was that the vocals weren't exactly melodic and i'm glad they rectified it on this album.

I think they form a very unique situation where their technicality creates some of the emotion
Spot on.
I honestly think this is one of the best metal releases of the 00s, it's almost beyond words.

Everythin>...
This is good, listened to it like 6 times yesterday...
my probs-
The vocals are like awesome sauce until like 5 tracks in then they start to grate
If they are never gunna put the growls in the forefront, why include them, i mean i love layers but a couple growls alone, or something else, would make the others sound fresher?
Musically this rules too much (o wait that's not a...)This Message Edited On 12.13.08

the growls suck that's why they aren't in the forefront

I wouldn't say they suck, but they're definitely not anything great. Luckily it doesn't effect the album at all.

clean vox are superb
the growls are kind of sad and i am glad they aren't on as much as they were on focus.

they aren't good but there needs to be something else...the clean vox are too perfect and they start to annoy rather than amaze

Cynic's growling has never been great TBH.

the growls add an interesting dynamic in my opinion, but they are out of place in some parts.

this album is garbage compared to focus
"analyze it as its own construction and don't relate it to past albums"
why would you do that when focus does everything that traced in air does better.

not to say focus was bad, experimenting is good, but the end result is a variable depending on who you are
