I got into Neurosis by going chronological, but I remember it was a hard transition to go from TSIB to TOG because of how vastly different production values were and how different they approached their style. I jumped to Sovereign and ATNS, and they were far more digestible from there on.



Now that I have listened (and arranged myself) Times of Grace combined with the Tribes of Neurot companion release it's my favorite Neurosis. But it took me a while to get there.

this is so incredibly exciting!! will need some time to sort all my feelings out, but this is so huge. i've only spun this once but feel it might be amazing.

i wanted to comment though on aarons prints being all over this immediately: even without listening to the record, the title seems political commentary on the state of the world and the same goes for a lot of these lyrics, which makes so much sense considering the direction sumac were going in most recently with "the film". makes the album feel vital and weighty while being a bit more tangible by neurosis' standards, with their at times overly cryptic lyrics and also hearkens back to their punk roots, punk being inherently political.

Respectable take, I’d absolutely take Sovereign over more than a few of their full lengths.

I think it's perfectly fine (and even advisable) to skip the first two albums and come back to them later. They just sounded like a totally different band, and they're not very good anyways. If someone's committed to going through their discography I would tell them to start at Souls at Zero and go chronologically. However, if someone's just looking to sample their music quickly to see if this band is for them, I would probably tell them to start with The Eye of Every Storm.

I agree with all of what death said for the most part. The Word as Law is a great record, but it's more of a precursor to what they would end up doing than anything else. And even so, it's not essential or anything. In that sense, the first two albums are kind of just for completionists at this point.

I feel like had this album been released in 2012 instead of Honor Found In Decay, it would've broken Sputnik.

"Blind" is without a shadow of doubt one of their absolute best songs. Holy shit
