seriously though why do people neglect the existence of RR. It's practically Seediq Bale Part 2. Even though it was released before

Well I liked this a lot more than I was expecting. His vocals have gotten way weaker, but it's still an enjoyable album.

Same story as with In Flames. People get stuck in the past, and then wonder why the world moves forward. I totally disagree with this review. I've been a long-time fan of Chthonic and I can tell you, Takasago Army is their best album so far.
The production is absolutely top-notch, on the very top. Excellent arrangements, and it really shows they have spent endless time in the studio to fine-tune every little detail. The riffs are incredible, having a very healthy balance between western ("that sounds familiar") metal and eastern ("Wow, that's interesting") influence. Honestly, I can't imagine how it can be made any better.
Oh, and did I mention how utterly ingenious is the use of keyboards (but also the traditional instruments) in this album? Absolutely top class. However, perhaps the best quality of the album is its cohesion. From one song to the next, there is an underlying unity. Although they are excellent heard individually, this album begs to be listened to from beginning to end, again and again.
Oh well, we each like different stuff I suppose...

the keyboards here are certainly nothing special, it makes me wonder how much symphonic black metal you've listened to because this is standard and at times below standard
undying unity? more like monotony to me. regarding production, production/mixing is annoyingly loud, like a lot of modern metal records too, so that's certainly nothing to shout about.
but eh, if you enjoy it that's cool with me :]

No.

i think by the time you've heard chthonic's other albums you stop wanting something 'interesting' since the whole taiwanese instruments thing can only go so far, and instead start wanting well played and well written music.
and to me this just doesn't deliver. :]

I mean I really like this actually, but to say it's their best album is just completely wrong. They never have, and never will, top Seediq Bale.
