LMFAO @ everyone dissing me for not liking cynic.

tweak this Meshuggah riff, add a chug or two here, add melody for accessibility, and sprinkle with a helping of constant breakdowns.

I kinda agree, but i think there is a bit more to them than that.

Album Rating: 4.5

all of things described are true but you forgot to mention that they do all of those things better than most bands in their scene/genre/whatever

cynic sucks
this is okay but everything sounds like i've heard it before

If these vocals are part of "the sexiest metal album of the year", I should be an underwear model. Vocals are brutal imo. Music and production almost make up for them, though. Vocals should have been buried deep in the mix.

Periphery is on a whole separate page from Cynic...

converge

Converge sucks, I'm talking about your rating.

^agreed converge does suck and this cd pwns

to all the people that said the vocals are autotuned. spencer can hit all these notes live sooo foad and stuff.

and converge most definitely does not suck!

Yea I don't get people claiming when the drums are programmed and the vocals are autotuned...what are you basing this on?

Just go see the band live....

yeah if people claimed the drummer is unable to play this stuff in the studio or live... you're goddamn retarded.

Album Rating: 3.5
