in my opinion the widow is the worst track, yet it's still a brilliant ballad

The Widow is definitely the least amazing track but it still owns really hard, especially that vocal hook omg.

maybe i should listen again, the fact that Im a BTBAM and King Crimson fanboy now should make it easier to like this

actually the worst track is the 30 minute diarrhea blast that closes the album.

Um, that 30 minute song is the best, and Miranda That Ghost... is second best.

its literally the most draggy, annoying, vocally retarded and musically irritating piece of music that the band has ever written.

Nah Miranda is pretty overrated comparatively. As in it still rules but is definitely the second-least amazing track on the album. Cygnus fucks faces, as does L'Via, and Cassandra Gemini is pure, terrifying prog-bliss.

dude, Gemini isnt prog bliss. This is why hardcore/emo kids shouldnt speak of the prog. (Jk bro ilu). This is epic prog bliss that you kids should be listening to:

That's a terrible argument. There are plenty of things about any of those bands that could turn people off them besides the few things they have in common.

few things?



dude



BTBAM and The Mars Volta are so similar its not even funny, your looking at it the wrong way. Maybe not PTH. But definitely bands such as BTBAM, King Crimson, Soft Machine, etc. When indie kids hate on those bands and then blow this album, it makes no sense, and you know it.
