I agree Akeldama's keyboards made the album extremely awkward

Album Rating: 3.5

i thought the keyboards set it apart. this just sounds like more of the same, only faster.

Album Rating: 4.0

I really like technical music but find these guys very boring.

Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound Off

yeah good review. I too was also very disappointed that the bass was so low in the mix. i love tech death bass. necrophagist does that alot. and i love bass sweeps. it's something you don't hear often. But yeah this album was a huge step up. and if you ask me i was expecting what they did on PD on akeldema. i thought akeldema was trying to much to play to the california crowd. seeing as bands like animosity and JFAC were spreading "deathbore" like wildfire thoroughout the US. the only track i really liked on akeldema was akeldema. but that's cuz i like fusion jazz i.e. shawn lane. I also think prison born is prolly the best opener for a CD i have heard in a long time. I hate how bands make some boring meaningless intro. i.e. suicide silence/whitechapel. It's nice to see a good concept album. and seeing this has to do with alien invasion. this would be a good CD to play while you are playing DEAD SPACE.

Nice copy/paste comment...

California also has All Shall Perish, which is far from "deathsnore" or whatever

There are two California crowds:

- scene crowd (Suicide Silence, Winds of Plague, As Blood Runs Black)

- non-scene crowd (Decrepit Birth, Deeds of Flesh, Severed Savior, Odious Mortem)

The Faceless still is in between.

And...?

and I can't sit through that album in one sitting.

Album Rating: 4.5

I'd give it a 3.3, but can't. It has a lot of chugging, but it has some damn good moments.

holy shit the drums are fucking annoying on this. i might as well get a drill and bore into my face

Duality is great :D

And this album didn't wow me that much first time round.This Message Edited On 11.11.08

Damn quite a bit of hate for this album.



alot more than i was expecting anyways.

Album Rating: 4.5

oh and great review btw, we pretty much agree on everything im just slightly more fanboyish

This album, in my honest opinion, blows Akeldama away. They definitely upped their game on this one and showcased a different side of tech-death. "Xenochrist" is just plum sick.

Yeah they should have just gotten Joey Jordison to play on this albu, since he's the best drummer in the world. Ever. The first Ancient Covenant solo is one of my favorite guitar solos though. I really like this album.

Album Rating: 4.5

I don't think people were pissed at the drummer himself TeamExcelcior, just the mixing of it all



and lol Joey Jordison

Album Rating: 4.5

lyle does an excellent job, its just the snare sound is a bit overbearing at times. and jordison is really not that good, lyle is definitely better technically speaking.
