Its close. Rapture is pretty much as good too

Album Rating: 3.5

First 4 MA albums are ridiculously consistent, how the mighty have fallen :/

I like everything except Heretic and Illud

Album Rating: 3.5

Domination has some sweeet jams.



Where the Slime Live, dat riff m/

Prefer Formulas and Gateways to Domination but yeah theres great riffs. It just needed better vocals and production

Album Rating: 3.5

I think every MA album shoulda had Altars vox, definitely prefer the raspier tone.

Same, but I dont think they would suit the slower pace of this and Covenant tbh. Although the vocals here still have some rasp

Album Rating: 3.5

Ye definitely, they kinda ceased to exist from Covenant onwards.

Steve Tucker had pretty decent vocals, definitely better than Dave's on Domination

Album Rating: 3.5

MA have always had their production/vocal issues (minus Altars)



Its frustrating, cos its mostly what stops some of their albums from reaching their full potential.

This prob has the biggest vocal issues in that Dave cant decide on what style he wants. Some tracks sound like Altars vocals others he goes deep like on Covenant. I still slightly prefer this to Covenent overall though despite being less focused.

Album Rating: 3.0

i think covenant as well had pretty great all round production



and rapture (2)

Covenant has a perfect production.

Fall from Grace slays so hard.

Some badass riffage on here.

t/t brings it hard.

The Ancient Ones is pure badassery.

Album Rating: 4.0

those pinched harmonics in the main riff of that are so awesome

A shame this band doesn't seem to get that much attention 'round here.
