Gotta agree with you there. There was much more push with a lot more interest on The Age Of Silence.

Whilst Echoes Of The Fallen has a certain emphasis on lead-work throughout the course of the album[comma] it’s all held together by its rhythm section.
The sentence starting:
When all this is combined...
is sort of clunky, though I'm finding myself unable to rework it very effectively.... might be worth it just to take a look back at it and try to do something with the awkward phrasing and the repetitiveness of mentioning the sixteenths and thirds. In general the first sentence pays a lot of attention to the technicalities of the music, which isn't a bad thing to do, just maybe not necessarily in a review, as it takes away from the flow and feel of the writing as a whole.
As mentioned before, the guitar work is of particular notice throughout the album, especially in the solos. Guitar strings wail, scream and ring in a spectacular and melodic manner[comma] captivating the listener and further showcasing some of Anterior’s instrumental talents
The guitars are flashy but don’t overpower the rest of the music, their technicality complimenting tracks with various sweeping arpeggios...
Whilst Echoes Of The Fallen is a slight step back from their debut[comma] there is no denying
One of the most consistent elements to the album and its consistency may cause it to become less noticed under everything else that’s going on.
-reread this sentence and do something with it.... it needs some work.
It's a good review, it just needs work in certain parts... sometimes your writing is very effective and sometimes not so much. All pretty minor changes though :]

@iFghtffyrdmns, Cheers mate, i gotta work on that wording. I just can't seem to remove that from my writing.
|
| |
sure thing no worries at all... wording is tough because reading over your own writing almost always sounds good and makes sense. i guess it just takes a lot of practice and reading of really good writing to learn to read your own stuff objectively and notice awkward phrasing. like I said though you're definitely a good writer, it's just little subtleties more than anything.
|
| |
I guess that's not bad considering how my Aural training has crippled my basic writing skills.
|
| |
I'm gonna stay away from this one just based on Sylosis being in the "Recommended by Reviewer" section.
|
| |
Fair enough Hawksy, there are some similarities that emerge from Anterior's thrash-y like writing that create that afformentioned similaty but it works well for what they do.
|
| |
Yeah I guess I can see why some people like it, but that kind of music does absolutely nothing for me.
|
| |
The least I can say is give the debut a look over before you write these guys completely off.
|
| |
I'll sample a few songs from the debut tomorrow and see what I think.
|
| |
Awesome, at least you'll give it a swing first.

I love the stuff Sylosis has put out. If this is on par with their releases, I will check it out tonight. Pos'd on the review, very solid.

Bringing the metal back to the front page, awesome!
|

These guys were cool live but they don't interest me on record

Not really on par, just more of a reference point with a similarity.Thanks for the pos though.

[size=14]M/[size] Hopefully I can keep it coming, Thanks Acanthus!

Have you tried the debut?
|
| |
I listened to a few a tracks but nothing caught my interest
I might give it another go some other time though
|
| |
Fair enough, at least you gave it some form of attention. It gets on my nerves whn people state they hate certain albums and then turn around and tell you that they have only listened to one (only) song.

Pretty cool band. Kinda reminded me of Unearth in some parts.
