I like Tourniquet Man as a interlude type of song, which is what it really is.

Am I jumping the gun by saying "Ilyena" will at one point be in the top 3 of the Billboard Rock charts? Hopefully they don't get played out like so many other great bands.This Message Edited On 01.28.08

Terrific album, didn't like it THAT much on my first listen, but I'm around 6 listens in now and, hell, I can't get enough!

Cavalettas and Goliath are probably my favourites at the moment - by the way, excellent review, I agree with basically everything you said.

The artwork for the single is badass. Wish they could've switched that with the album.



Today is gonna be the day. I'm going to give it a few spins.

So far I rate this between a 3 and a 3.5. I don't think I like it more than either Frances or De-Loused, but it isn't half bad.



Tourniquet Man and Ouroborous are my favourite songs.

^^^Where's your law now?

I think Sputniks general consent is
Frances>Deloused>Bedlam>Amputechture
or at least thats what it should be

What a shame. The artwork on Amputechture was at least awesome, since Jeff Jordan's work is... awesome. Is this done by him as well?
