Jammed this and AtG in full a couple days ago. I'd say both are amazing on different ways, but I'm gonna give the edge to this. Even though it feels a tad lifeless, the instrumentation is just waaaaaaaay too much over here and it has the perfect production to match.

It's really close but this is a more cohesive work. Better constructed and produced for sure. Have you heard the AtG remaster?

You guys need to check Damn the machine S/T ASAP if you like this. I feel both albums are musically similar plus DTM is seriously underrated.

Nothing Left to Say is one of the best closers I've ever heard.

GOAT Fates



@Cas Agreed, the live version on the DVD is also great. More punchy production gives it more life

Nothing Left To Say is literally perfect. The riffs, melodies, transitions, vocals, drumming of course, basslines, solos.

half of your statement is correct!



Arch is the epitome of a vocalist and does it as good as any other....now if one doesn't prefer his voice, that's another story
