Dudes, I go on here to stir up contreversy (I hope I spelled that right), cuz' I honestly like to see how much a person will stick up for the music they like, Because so much CRAP is trendy these days and the trully talented bands suffer, TNY you say I suck, well so be it, and your favorite bands on your page I actually like all of them!....I'm a mean cynically person who cares for musicians and I'm not afraid to put them down if I don't like their music and I'm the type of person who would say it to there faces in person, constructive critisizm doesn't hurt if you don't let it!

Captain North you are correct I'm a pipin' somewhat because every person on here ripped on Ra, I stuck up for them because in all honesty they have huge amounts of talent, and alot of mainstream bands don't, And Golgoroth makes a stupid statement, I can take critisizm and I have with sticking up for Ra, when I go most of the peoples page who ripped on them they like 3 chord type bands or bands that couldn't sing a song in tune to save their lives!

UhhKris I wish I could take back the comment about Flogging Molly because it almost sounds racist (But I'm almost 100% Irish myself), But I trully cannot stand there music it's so annoying to me and every song sounds the same with the irish twist in every song....or should I say any song I've ever heard from them!

3 chord bands? What do you think Ra is?! They play powerchords.

Lawler, you are not sticking up for your band, you are dissing other people and calling their opinions stupid. You want to stick up for your band, well, fine, argue like a fucking man, not whiny kid.

You are correct in a sense but Ra (like I've said I don't think they are the greatest band) but I like they they have cool little interludes and layered vocal harmonies that to me keep the song iteresting.....And I don't argue like a whiny kid, I'm a golden gloves winner and my cousins one is a professional wrestler and the other is a UFC fighter ,so to argue like a man Lawler's always do (God that sounds child like...from me), But all you people rip on Ra and as soon as I rip on bands you like you people go crazy.

Captain North I also see you like Linkin Park (Which most people rip apart on here, but honestly I like them too, minus their newest album) but you should check out Flidsyde if you haven't already they have kind of a Linkin Park sound but the guitaring on Flipsyde is stellar!

The whole premise of this review is stupid. Because a band follows a simple formula doesn't make the band simple. Listening to this record, I hear so many ideas and melodies i've never heard in any other band. Some of it is not new of course but then all the crap that's supposed to be so cutting edge today all sounds like old junk... i mean seriously... All that remains???... Dragonfarce!!??...rock is more regurgitated than ever before but i suppose to expect a reviewer to look for subtlety is like asking a 6 yr old to watch the news.

Karmadog69, finally someone who likes this album other than me, I really like this album and I agree with what you say about All That Remains and Dragonforce (although i love the guitaring in Dragonforce even though I know it's over the top!), I still think Ra "Duality" is there best effort but I still really like this album!

This review is crap. I think the people that screwed Ra over at cement shoes wreckards put this reviewer up to this because of the track "Waste of Space" on this album. Dont take the advice of any of these prog metal dirthead heshers on this thread because the dont really understand the music business. I love how people who think they are hardcore and have supreme music tastes will bash a great band because it does not connect with them (Because they like more aggressive punk or dark prog metal math rock or even Rap or even country for that matter). This album connects with people who cant hear music the way musicians do because it is digestable and they can "emote" to it. Thats why pop rock sells more than metal or punk or hardcore emo. Ra is very radio mainstream Pop Rock Alternative Genre because they are actually in the music business to sell records. I am not going to run out and buy David Archuletta's new album but I respect what he does and I assure you that he will sell more albums than any of your favorite bands listed on your profile's. But you would still say it sucks as he makes a great living doing what he love's and the millions of teeny boppers that buy his Albums im sure would disagree and so would his bank account. Think about it BRITTNEY SPEARS.



I would say that Ra has better vocals than 95% of any other artist out there. If you like vocals harmonies that are comparable to Queen or Yes with huge sounding epic heavy rock overtones get this album. If you like Rap or hardcore screamo and vocals with little to no harmony this album would not be for you.



I reccomend that this "staff" person Kyle Bannik should be avoided at all costs and maybe the site all together as well.



Seems pretty Biased and very narrow minded in its opinion
