Everything is soloing. There are no 'riffs' on this album, just an endless series of more or less complicated soloing that taps out melodies of Sweet 'N' Low flavor that causes most people to jump for joy but me to retch. The guitar tone is sickeningly sweet and jangly, just like the production which retains a crystal clarity with almost zero personality. The name of the genre is completely illegitimate. There's no 'death' to be found here, and omitting that word seems to result in a much more logical label: melodic metal. So melodic that any trace of brutality or intensity is conspicuously absent.

I'm guessing thats from a review or soundoff. There are a lot of really pretentious, cringy reviews here

My favorite DT album. I really love their later efforts but to be honest i miss their old sound. R.I.P. Fredrik Johansson, you did a hell of a job here

Their consistency has been both a blessing and a curse. Their latest is enjoyable, but you can hear stagnation approaching. I don't know if they'll take some more risks in the future, but it'd be great to see it happen.

This still needs to actually click. Maybe I should revisit it soon, it's been long enough.
