AHIG is their best in every way??? How so? Not trying to be a dick, but that is my least favorite by them so I'm curious.

If you were to count all their releases, then the Voliminal DVD is the worst thing they've ever made. Just the drizzling shits.

My comment from a few hours ago on the AHIG review: Relistened to this and bumped my rating from a 2.5 to a 3.5, this has their best production, singing, guitarwork, drumming, album artwork, and lyrics of any of their albums. I always thought that this was their worst, but now I consider it their second best after Vol. 3.

@Talons didn't you have AHIG at a 2.5 before this was realised? I mean... what changed!?



I'd give this a 2 and no higher. I'm just not bothered to rate it though

@Choccy: AHIG has Snuff, Dead Memories, Sulfur, and Gemetria and most of the other songs are either good or decent, they grew on me hard today for some reason

I listened to it again and it sounded way better than I remembered, some of the songs I thought were annoying I liked this time around and I paid more attention to the drumming, lyrics, and production which were all top notch, at least by their standards.

"Sarcastrophe" is probably the best track here for me.

I don't really care for their first two albums besides two or three songs on each tbh, they're overall slightly better than this

Listening to this album a few times made me realize how great AHIG is, which is funny because I used to think it was their worst.

Really? Because you said this was 2-2.5 range while you have AHIG at 2.5 so not much difference

no, this doesn't even reach 2.5.



But the more I think about it, the more I don't mind the stuff on AHIG, especially after hearing this

To me, this sounds like a more enjoyable version of Iowa.

Nice to see someone giving the first album some credit. I think it's quite underrated in their discog
