The clean vox were embarrassingly bad on the demo, tolerable on Portal, and ranging from good to amazing on here. There are some fantastic vocal melodies on here, but there are a couple of cheesy ones too.

This did not even come close to living up to my expectations. Objectively, Citadel is not horrible; but as a follow-up to the earth-shattering Portal of I, it's very, very disappointing. This is probably 2014's top let down for me.

idk, when Portal of I came out, I listened to it so much that it's all really memorable to me, and some sections still amaze me when I hear them today. Listening to this doesn't blow me away like that one did, but I feel like there are a lot of improvements.
Hard to say which is better for me.

The clean vocals are still pretty cheesy on here but unlike Portal I think they actually fit the music this time around. On Portal they sounded like they were included just because they wanted to try and be more dynamic for the sake of it, whereas they sound a lot more natural on here.

The only time I find the cleans an issue is on blackholes

I will say this, There aren't as many sections where the cleans and screams are concurrent. I REALLY liked how they did that in Portal of I

Yeah, that was very nice. The opening track on PoI is the perfect example of that.

Overproduced? If that's what you're alluding to, I can see where you're coming from.

I think it's one of the few occasions where the squeaky clean production feels necessary

I'm currently trying to learn bass, so seeing you play that way was pretty awesome/inspiring. Keep it up, man!
