it's not really cliche. it seems like half the people enjoy Air while the other half enjoy Focus.

I can listen to Focus more. You make me sad John =[

Album Rating: 4.5

Here's how it breaks down for me: Focus is basically a collection of 8 of the best prog/death songs ever made.



Traced in Air just has a better overall flow and feels more like an album than a collection of separate, supermegabadass songs

Album Rating: 4.5

I actually like this more than Focus.

Amen guys.

This is a true piece of art, the playing on it is superb. I must say when I heard this for the first time it made me realise how much I missed these guys. Not perfect but pretty damn close.

Yeah. The vocals are kind of lousy, but yeah.

Wait. my comment was at bliss not leotard. the vocals rule

Album Rating: 2.0

Yeah the vocals are good. This grew off me a little bit, but it's still an amazing album.

lol don't worry I knew nobody here would agree with me about that.

Instrumentally, the album is excellent, but the airy vocals tend to irritate. I actually like the robo-voice from Focus a lot better. The death metal vocals are OK on Traced in Air but I thought there could have been more of them, and a few more heavier riffs in general. Focus was more balanced, I feel. But I need to give Traced in Air a few more listens, assuming I can get past those helium balloon vocals. And who makes a 30-minute album anymore these days?
